Product Description:

3ivx MPEG-4 is a mature industry standard video compression system which enables the transmission and storage of video, which would otherwise be too large to store or transmit. 3ivx MPEG-4 5.0.2 for Mac OS X consists of MPEG-4 Video and File Format components for authoring and playback of MPEG-4 media.

3ivx MPEG-4 encodes faster and with better quality in a smaller file size than QuickTime's built-in MPEG-4 encoder and still retains the ability to target all QuickTime 6 and 7 users without the need to download a decoder plug-in.

3ivx MPEG-4 Export components allow the easy export of high quality 3ivx MP4 and 3ivx AVI files from iMovie, Final Cut Pro and other QuickTime Applications which are directly compatibility with Apple's iPhone and AppleTV.

3ivx's high performance MPEG-4 ASP Decoder is capable of decoding most MPEG-4 variants (including DivX 3 through 6, Apple MPEG-4, Xvid and MS-MPEG-4v3). 3ivx MPEG-4 5.0.2 produces noticeably higher quality video than other decoders due to its high quality post-processing filters, and because of its core design and optimization can easily handle HD 1080p resolutions.

3ivx MPEG-4 Usage TipBAD 3iVX, BAD! - Version: 5.0.2, 8/2/2008 02:27PM PST

jasonrainbows
The worst! Sure, it plays your files for a few days (if you can put up with the disgusting WMV style compression artifacts, blocky-blurry like really messed up JPG compression), and then every file is watermarked EXPIRED.

To REMOVE 3iVX from your system is non-intuitive. Searching for, and removing the found files doesn't remove 3iVX, you have to follow this procedure;

1. Open HD
2. Open LIBRARY folder
3. Locate QuickTime folder and open
4. Locate and remove the following;
3ivxMediaExporter.component
3ivxVideoCodec.component
5. Drop them right in the trash, empty it, and never, ever admit to any of your friends that you were stupid enough to install it in the first place.
6. Find, download and install PERIAN, it's free and 1,000,000 x better.

Do a little googling about "3ivx problems" and be enlightened. They're just out to make a quick buck and will probably disappear in the near future. They don't even do a modicum of maintenance on their own websites.

stay away!!!!

on intel-macs all your 3ivx encoded films wont play! I have not found any possibility to convert them to any format, that works on intel native!

(you can view the fims, if you tell quicktime to run under "rosetta" or use vlc, but cannot convert them. so sooner or later they will be non-playabel)
