If you’re a Mac user and have a Flip, you’re probably having issues with audio on your clips….meaning…there’s no audio. According to the folks at Pure Digital, there are some compatibility issues with Flip and the latest Quick Time update. (Quick Time 7.4.5 on 10.4 Tiger).

After contacting PD about the issue, they suggested that I try Perian (suggested, but couldn’t officially recommend). I did and it fixed the problem, at least for me.

By the way, if Perian works for you, please donate to the developers!
