(Hint: Right-click on the MPEG2 Codec installer from Apple, "Show Package Contents", find the "" file, decompress it and you'll find the codec contained therein.)Īs for the luddites who decry the use of QuickTime, my response is: Get over it H264/AAC is mainstream (ever heard of Bluray?), is part of QuickTime, and the new H265 codec which will be coming down the pike for use next year will also be included in the QuickTime standard (which is not just Apple).įrankly, not including VLC (which has all codecs self-contained), the best way I can get reliable, lip-sync'd playback of videos on XP and Win7 PCs is to use QuickTime and H264-based media.Įxplanation: NEW SOFTWARE= New tool since your last visit NEW VERSION= New version since your last visit NEW REVIEW= New review since your last visit NEW VERSION= New version Latest version
#ALTERNATIVE TO MPEG STREAMCLIP INSTALL#
Just install the codec manually in System/Library/Quicktime and forget the installer app provided by Squared5. I'm confident the beta glitches will be ironed out. Earlier versions have been an essential part of my "conversion toolbox" and I see no reason why I'd want to exclude it. I'll chalk it up to this being a beta version. I find it working with other apps but MPEG Streamclip seems to have trouble playing the MPEG2 file (although it does seems to convert the file to H264/AAC in a. They could have simply EOL'd the old version and moved to a new version with direct support.Seems to be an issue using the MPEG2 component from Apple.

Perhaps they wanted to maintain compatibility with older machines, which is noble, but somewhat stupid if it stops it working with new machines.

What I don't understand is why Squared 5 put effort and time into building a custom installer for Lion, rather than change MPEG StreamClip to use the newer direct support. There is currently no word on whether this customer installer is still compatible with Mavericks., but that would be my first pot of call for trying to get it to work.

However, the MPEG-2 playback component installer will not install in Lion or above, so to circumvent this, Squared 5 made a custom installer as part of their package, see: However, MPEG StreamClip is hard coded to use the MPEG-2 playback component and so still needs it to run. However, since OSX Lion, Apple claim the MPEG-2 playback component is no longer needed by OSX (I believe it's now directly supported by Quicktime). MPEG StreamClip needs Apples MPEG-2 playback component. Since my needs are modest and occasional, apps like Premiere, etc. I would much prefer to continue to use Streamclip but i will consider another alternative. The save process was very quick and resulted in a file size of zero bytes. After installing Mavericks, I found that MPEG Streamclip no longer could properly save my edited movies.
