Quicktime X OS X 10.7 codec support

is there a list of codec spport for qt x in 10.7/lion?

i noticed a qt with the avid codec plays back on my laptop that i did not install the avid codec on -- and prior to lion there was no avid codec support in quicktime x (or motion). this leads me to think there are other codecs that will work.

quicktime x-OTHER, Mac OS X (10.7), codec support

so the avid codec works on my macbook air and im pretty sure ive not installed anything to make this happen. i do have perian installed. but i tried playing avid codec on another machine with lion, and no dice.


also i found the list i was looking for, but for os x10.6 so guessing 10.7 is mostly the same.

so anyone know what i might have done to make avid codec qt's work?

edit: i have the avid codecs installed. i dont remember installing them. I also didnt think they would work with qt x

Sorry to 'hijack' this thread, but does anyone would have the basics Lion Quicktime codec?


I had a tons of additional codec on Snow Leopard (from divx, to red, etc...). I just overwrite the Lion Codec, and it looks like I can't watch any Flash Video in Safari 5.1 now (and it still works fine on Chrome... weird!)...


Everything was working fine until I overwrite the files. Unfortunately I don't have any backup and didn't have time to Time Machine since the Lion upgrade.


I tried to uninstall/reinstall Flash, but it doesn't solve the problem.


Thanks in advance 🙂
