I'm transferring some gaymaletube old 8mm home videos live sex to digital through a fairly cheap third party video encoder. However what I didn't realize was that the videos encode natively into MPEG-2 format myfreecams . Which brings me to my question, MPEG-2 xnxx is part of the Quicktime family, and Quicktime biqle is no longer beeg com supported by Apple. I've done my research and I need the Quicktime pornhuh MPEG-2 codec for OSX. Unfortunately after some time on the phone with pornhub Apple they told me I'm SOL youporn because it's not theirs anymore xxxxx df

Actually MPEG-2 is the video format used for, among other things, DVD video and what used to be used for TV video signals. It is common to find older capture hardware and software that supports that video format. Most common now is MPEG-4 because of the better compression and higher quality video VS MPEG-2.
If you are using a Mac OS, then QuickTime is an expected software. If you are expecting to save the digital conversion to DVD, then MPEG-2 is needed, so it might be a consideration to work in the Windows environment for this activity. -
Here's the in-depth skinny on that issue:
MPEG2 is part of the MPEG family.
MP4 (the container, not any codecs) is a fork of the QT MOV container, but that is the only near-native connection between MPEG & QT.
Macs USED to use Quicktime to play videos, and when they did, there was available - FOR AN EXTRA COST of ~$29USD - an Apple-branded but MPEG-licensed QT plugin that allowed one to DECODE MPEG2 video (only, no encode - that would require other tools). MPEG1 decoding was already included freely with QT.
That was up until they changed from QT to AVfoundation as their framework/platform/subsystem.
The NEW Macs use AVfoundation only, and for the next few months, if you can find a copy of the MPEG2 plugin, you could still use it to IMMEDIATELY CONVERT using the QT updater feature in AVfoundation, into a newer, more modern codec (e.g. AVC, HEVC, etc) in a MOV container. It won't allow you to do anything else (because they consider it a legacy format which has been deprecated).
After that (Oct 2019?), the newest version of MacOS will NO LONGER support 32 apps of any kind (which includes QT, QTupdater, MPEG plugin, etc), and so you would truly be SOL, at least using (newer) Macs and using QT/AVfoundation.
AVfoundation itself DOES NOT SUPPORT 3rd party plugins of any kind. So no luck in the future.
You could, however, use ffmpeg to convert using a Mac, as it uses its own internal decoding & encoding libraries which are not dependent on the Mac's default AV subsystem. Assuming, of course, that they have a 64bit version available for after Oct.
Or you could use a dedicated 64bit conversion tool ($$).
Or you could easily use a PC (Win or Linux), using one of MANY apps to do the conversion, including ffmpeg.
Hope that helps,
Scott

The most important thing about any format is the TOOLs
My app solves most of the video problems..
From thumbnails to random play.
To slow motion..
Use long filenames like I do. To control the thumbnail play segment -
-
My app plays mpeg-2 format video like no other.
Instead of a pathetic blurry pic for a ThumbNail
This app can randomly or selectively play the beginning 2 or 3 seconds of video as a thumbnail
or randomly / selectively play the last 2 or 3 of a video
or randomly select a video then a random segment to play.
Or play a predefined segment of video.. Where the start point and play length is determined from the FileName
This app is FREE and if you only use it to explore your cache, what fun you'll have.
