Title: AVI video for Mac use
Post by: Raven on March 27, 2018, 12:57:52 PM

I just received a AVI video clip on a USB drive from a TV news station that I need to review. My Mac OSX can't open it.
What's the easiest way to convert it for Mac use so I can also show it on a LED projector?

I believe, but may be wrong, that you need VLC for Mac.

What apps have you tried? Many have free trial periods while some are free for playing, but may not convert formats. I doubt if the digits care what kind of projector you display the light.

VLC will only play about 100 different formats.
