Is there a combined video codec pack for OS X??

Is there a combined video codec pack out there?

Im looking for something like k-lite codec pack or combined community codec pack for windows but for mac of coarse.
I know of the one on divx site but is there another one, because divx does not supply all the proper codecs i may use.

Mac OS X (10.4.7)

i've never found a codec pack to be all that nececary; you can get an XviD Quicktime component here:

And an AC3 component here:

And Windows Media support here:

And anything that won't play in Quicktime once those are installed will probably play using VLC:

I've had some luck with MPlayer. It'd play some files that VLC and QuickTime wouldn't, although it's been rare for me that VLC didn't work.
