Ok, I have Quick Time Version 7.6.2
And there are some tutorial videos I need to watch
when I click on the video I want to watch a new screen opens
and a large QT viewer window opens, but it is black there is no video
but the audio plays. then a pop up window opens to inform me

Additional software is required for
QuickTime to play back this media. It may be
available (may be available) :eek::confused:
from the QuickTime Components page.

Make sure your internet network connection
is active, then click the continue button to
check for software

So I do this and get taken to a page with several different
programs, but not given a clue as to which one I would need
to fix this problem
Can any body help Thanks

Andrew
 

Quick question before heading off to work
I just installed perian does it work by it self or do
I need to put in some settings, as I still have the same problem
when I start one of the videos, sorry for being such a nubie

Thanks again

Andrew

I just noticed that I cannot view the video tutorials on the Perian site but I do get a still frame amazon.com ad when the audio ends
 
There are some videos that quicktime won't play (at least the free version--there are add ons available but cost too much IMO). Download VLC (a video player) and you should be able to play the videos that won't run in quicktime.
