I recorded A LOT of video using CamStudio version 2. It will play back in windows media player perfectly and VLC. The problem is when I try to open it up in Quicktime 7.6.4 (the most recent version), all I have is a black screen. It will play for the duration of the video clip but there is no video. I didn't record audio because I am doing voice overs, so please don't worry about that.
I just need to be able to open it in Quicktime so that I can save it as a .mov and edit in Final Cut Pro. For some reason, that won't play .avi files either.
Qiucktime told me that I may need to install some components but didn't say which ones, so I installed Divx and Xvid from their Quicktime component page thinking those were the 2 most common to fix most problems dealing with codecs.
Does anyone have a solution to this problem? I really need to be able to convert this video soon. Work depends on it.

What codec did you use for capture?
You might be able to use ffmpeg to re-wrap in .mov, or encode to h.264 in .mov, or even convert to uncompressed .mov if you didn't want to lose quality.

I guess it was the default codec in CamStudio (CamStudio Lossles Codec v1.4)
