Re: Avid Meridien & FCS2

To install the codecs it's a metter of unzipping the codec package and simply dragging the various Avid codec components into the Library>Quicktime folder. They are in the Quicktime folder on the new machine. Since it was a new machine and a new OS I downloaded a new set of codecs from Avid's website, unzipped them and placed them in the Quicktime folder. The Meridien codec doesn't seem to work. I even restarted the machine just in case. If I play a Merdien file in Quicktime, I get the usual white screen you'd expect if the codec was missing. I them tried copying the codecs from the old machine just in case something was different. I know that they work on the old system. When I play a Merdien file after copying the old codecs...same result.
Is it possible that the Merdien codec isn't compatible with Leopard perhaps? Or this version of Quicktime? Something else going on, yes?
It's not a big deal either way. Just a matter on convenience when editing older projects. I can always convert the files in the old G5 when they come up, but space is tight in my edit room (who's isn't?) and I'd like to take the G5 off line eventually.
