Macs can play these types of media files (extensions) by default
Apple computers can play all the popular media file formats. Mac OS plays various media formats. It can play: MP3, MP4, QT, AAC, and many more. It can play most most media formats except those that are made specifically for Windows OS although these can be handled by using plugins for QuickTime such as Flip4Mac and Perian (See links below). If you come across a media file format that is not recognized by your Mac, you can try using a cross-platform media player, such as VLC.
All you need is the free VLC media player for Mac. It will play almost any file there is. Click the link for the free download.
No. You have to convert the video to a format used by the media player. A Quicktime video is an Apple/Mac file. Use Quicktime player to view it or convert it.
A MOV file is already formatted to play on a Mac OS. If you want to play it on a PC, then you will need to convert it. Free converters are available online. Google: free video converters and download one. If you want to play a Windows Media file (.WMA or .WMV etc) then you will need Flip4Mac (See links below) which will play these formats in the standard QuickTime player.
To play an AVI file on a Mac use the free Perian plug-in (See links below) which adds many formats that can then be viewed with the QuickTime Player.
You can open a mpg file with Windows Media Player. The file can also be opened in Windows Movie Maker as well. Of course, you can't open it with a Mac OS unless you convert the file to a format used by the Mac system though.
If your Mac won't play MP4 videos, it could be due to a few reasons. The video codec used in the file may not be supported by your media player, or the file could be corrupted. Ensure you're using a compatible player like QuickTime or VLC, and consider updating your software. Additionally, check if your Mac's operating system is up to date, as updates often include codec support improvements.
AVI is a codec which stands for Audio & Video Interleave- is a file containing converted media, any visual & audio media. For the second question: Depending on what system you are running will determine if you are able to view them (try VLC for either mac or pc).
After Microsoft stopped producing a media player for the Mac they passed the rights to Telestream who produce the free Flip4Mac which allows the playing of Windows media files in the Mac's Quicktime player. (See links below)
