Xiph QuickTime Components (XiphQT) is, in short, the solution for Mac and Windows users who want to use Xiph formats in any QuickTime-based application, e.g. playing Ogg Vorbis in iTunes or producing Ogg Theora with iMovie.
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Thank you for this very useful component!
This allows, for example, to play Wikipedia audio content using QuickTime in Safari instead of using the much lesser-quality JavaScript player.
And you can't beat the price!!
Thank you again!

This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Nope, doesn't work at all for the ever popular flac files. I followed the simple drag and drop install ReadMe, restarted, no flac for iTunes. Total looser software, this.
Simply works!

Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Just a thanks to whoever developed this -- I have a whack of different apps for converting the various music and movie files I encounter. When I found myself with some .ogg files I thought I'd have to download another complete program.
This plugin for Quicktime and iTunes works like a charm. Plays the .oggs as is, and lets me convert them to .mp3 once I've imported them to iTunes!
Can speak for the other formats ... but it works on .ogg!
Thanks man!
