Did you actually do a google search on "mac codecs?" If not try that,
and in particular look athttp://www.thexlab.com/faqs/avidivx.html, at
least for the .avi files. .Asf files is a more difficult proposition.
A quick search on "mac .asf" suggests Flip4Mac is the only solution,
given VLC doesn't work:http://www.flip4mac.com/

This will give you the K Lite Codec Pack


Thanks for all the help, but I guess this is a Mac thing and it
looks as though K-lite is only for Windows. Well, if anybody has
any more suggestions, let me know. Still no luck with the file.


Well, yes. And I have downloaded and tried: WMP, VLC, Mplayer, DivX
player, DivX DoctorII, DivX Converter, etc. I'm running out of HD
space.
Guess the problem is that it is a WMV3 file.
I give up.
Thanks.


OK, thanks.
Will try those options and see what happens.


Flip4Mac did the trick! I don't know why all the others failed, but it
now works.
Thanks very much.
