I don't think you have an option to view WMV files without Rosetta at the moment. But the Flip4Mac team is working to get the Intel version of their QuickTime pluggin released 'soon'.

PS. Just in case you don't know, Flip4Mac is a pluggin for Apple's QuickTime player that allows you to watch almost all WMV files within Quicktime.

In the meantime, maybe try this technique.

You can play WMV files through Quicktime without using Rosetta with popwires wmv component..

More already than I would have guessed...

Yes, Flip4Mac is your ultimate solution, but in the meantime try PopWire.

Isnt there a guide or something that already answers this? If not why isnt there? And cant we create a sticky on the forum?
