hmm... tried that one too and am still not getting any video.

i guess i'll try to figure out some way to convert on my bootcamp partition.
 
That's VC70 not VP7... If you want to play VP7, you must convert it. Here is a free way.
If you have a intel mac, you can install wine and install FFDShow video converter at http://www.free-codecs.com/FFDshow_download.htm and VP7 Personal at http://www.free-codecs.com/VP7_download.htm along with VirtualDub at http://www.virtualdub.org/download.html. Once you tie all that in, you can convert it to a format your Mac can read, if you convert it to Divx3, you need perian at http://perian.org/.

Hope this helps you,
Mr. Gecko
