?Intel chip problem? Video not opening / iMac computer

[migseder]

I've installed Mac The Ripper, FFmpeg and the three extra bits, but there is a problem. My friend DOESN'T have an intel chip Mac, and I'm wondering if this is the bit that's playing up. I read older posts and tried to follow the lead to another site, but whatever was there then isn't now. \ Many thanks for any sugestions / Migs

Have you tried the same source files on your friend's Mac?

If so, then the likely difference is a bug in the Intel version, but not with the Intel chip itself.

You would likely get more answers in our Mac forum. Moving you.

And welcome to our forums.

You might want to trash the app and reinstall. Go here and follow the instructions:
http://ffmpegx.com/download.html

You should delete the library/application support/ffmpegX folder before doing the reinstall, so everything is clean.

I have a ppc G4 and the app works great. The account you install from MUST be admin level, because the installer uses SUDO.

I think there are different binaries for PPC and Intel. Probably best to doenload the proper version for your CPU.
