Edius Codec (HQ & HQX) pack for Mac

[Haddock]

Does anyone of you have any experience with these pack ?

Grass Valley HQX/HQ Codecs Pack for Mac OS X 10.7 (v1.05) Released: 2014-07-24

My question is : How to install it properly on a Mac ?

I receive a Mac that I only use to test if what I deliver is reliable so no serious experience... and my first trials are unsuccess.

Thanks

Those are plugins for Quicktime 7. Newer macs don't have Quicktime 7 on them, so you will have to install it first.

You can get it from Apple at this link. https://support.apple.com/kb/dl923?locale=en_US

Thank you Bern. This seems very relevant.... and sparing time.

You are welcome.

I should also note that when you install quicktime 7, it will still not be the default version of quicktime that the computer uses, and the app for quicktime 7 will be under the utilities app group.

I have a mac on my desk at the office, and have set the system to use quicktime 7 as the default player, as it is much more useful to a professional user than the newer Quicktime X.

You can do this by selecting a video file, pressing command+i or right click on it and select Get Info. In the popup that appears, there is an "open with" drop down. Select quicktime 7 and them use the "apply to all" there (sorry I can't remember the exact wording right now)
