Avid Codecs OS9 Quicktime 6 Not Working

[seapea]

I have downloaded the Avid Quicktime OS9 Codecs from Avid site, and placed them in the Extentions folder as instructed, but when I try to open a quicktime movie from Avid DV Express, in Quicktime, an error message comes up saying something about a missing compression file? In OS 10 Quicktime I have no trouble opening the same movie after adding the OS10 Avid codecs. Has anyone actually opened an Avid movie in OS 9 Quicktime? And if so, what extra extentions did you add?

try putting it in the extensions folder INSIDE of the Quicktime folder in the System folder.

I ran into a similar problem when tring to get the windows codecs working.

I tried your suggestion Charles, but the codecs no longer appeared under the export video options, of Quicktime Pro, and message still came up saying there was missing compression software , and that it was not available on the Quicktime site.
