Playing WMV files

[tom391]

Hey, I'm new to Macs (and this forum, obviously) so I hope I'm not missing something obvious / asking something stupid. I'm sure this has been asked before, I've searched but haven't actually found any answers that work.

I got my MacBook on Monday (love it), but on of the (few) problems I've had so far is that I have not been able to find anything that plays WMV files. Flip4Mac (if that is what it is called) won't run on Intel machines; I have downloaded the latest DivX player but to no avail. Surely there must be some way to play WMV files on Mac OS X?

Many thanks in advance

Tom

F4M does run on intel macs, just in rosetta. But from what I understand its really slow.

There is a universal binary of F4M coming, but its only in closed beta right now. But, its available if you can find it.

Search for a thread I started about this very thing called "lesser of 2 evils..." There is a link towards the bottom where to get the UB beta.

Thanks a lot will try that now...
