    I have an old analog capture card on my PC (miro dc20 by Pinnacle). I would like to be able to play these motion jpeg files on my mac and edit them as well. Usually you can just download a motion jpeg codec for the pc and it will play these old files. What is the solution for my mac so I can throw the old frozen TV dinner box they call a pc out the window?

    More Info:
    The format is "Motion JPEG OpenDML, 640 x 480, Millions Integer (little endian), Stereo, 44100 Hz, 16 bits

    Movie FPS: 29.95
    Playing FPS: (available when playing)
    Data Size: 523.7 MB
    Data Rate: 2.1 MB/sec

    I found a workaround solution for my problem. It won't allow me to play my old files but if I just convert them on my PC to a .mov in DV format, the results are perfect. It sucks because I have about 500 music videos in the old format and they will all have to be converted. I'll just convert as I go I guess. I'm still curious if there is a codect though. My G5 will encode alot faster than my 450 mhz Dell

    They don't play in QuickTime as they are now? I have plenty of motion jpeg video (already in mov containers) which plays in QT. It could be something to do with endian-ness though ...
