![]() Windows Media Video (WMV) is a video data compression technology developed by Microsoft. Includes all the features of Studio, and adds two-pass HD (up to 1920 x 1080), VBR encoding and pro audio featuresīelow is the following technical specifications for Flip4Mac Player: Includes all the features of Player Pro, and adds the ability to create standard definition (up to 768 x 576) WMV files using preset templates and custom encoding profiles wmv) directly in QuickTime applications and view Windows Media content on the Internet using a web browserĪdds the ability to import WMV and WMA files for editing and conversion to QuickTime formats or iOS devices There are four versions of Flip4Mac Player: Telestream previously offered a free standalone player also known as Flip Player while charging for their Pro and Studio features until the release of v3.3 on May 1, 2014, when they began charging for Flip4Mac Player (plug-in and standalone player combined). It was known for being the only QuickTime component for macOS to support Windows Media Video, and was distributed by Microsoft as a substitute after they discontinued their media player for Macintosh computers. was a digital media software for the macOS operating system. How many Macs are we talking about here? Maybe they have a volume license discount? I believe you can still download the older version for free on some of those software download websites (here's one), but I don't know if it'll work with the latest version of OS X Mavericks.Multimedia framework, plug-in, media playerįlip4Mac from Telestream, Inc. The software was free for years, and only recently did they start charging ~$5/license. If you absolutely cannot do anything about the WMV files, I would bite the bullet and pay for Flip4Mac. Ditching the WMV files now will save yourselves the headaches they'll cause when you upgrade the schools' hardware to something more modern later on down the road. If Clickview is the problem, then consider replacing it. Convert them into something friendlier, re-import them into Clickview, and then it'll just be easier for everyone. Instead of installing software on each of the Macs to playback the files, go to the source of the problem: the WMV files. WMV has been a dying format for the better part of the last decade - even Microsoft has essentially abandoned it for new, more modern standards (especially those that are cross-platform, browser-neutral, and work on mobile). ![]() The problem here isn't the Macs' inability to playback the WMV files, but rather the WMV files themselves. WMV? I feel like I've stepped into a time machine and gone back 10-15 years. This subreddit is not endorsed or sponsored by Apple Inc. If you'd like to view their content together, click here.
