Hey guys, anyone can lend a hand?

I have a movie: Rurouni Kenshin - Requiem for the Ishin Shishi

And the thing refuses to play on my macintosh, apparently the file is a wmv embedded in an avi or something. It plays just fine on my friend's PC though.

I tried Flip4Mac, and that seemed to work at first, but when I downloaded some wmv components I found for Quicktime it just screwed everything up, and refuses to play again.

So far i've tried these players: VLC, MPlayer OSX, Quicktime, WMV player, DIVX player, Flip4Mac (which was the only one which played it originally)

Any suggestions? (i'm considering just d/ling it again in a different format =p)
Or does anyone know any video conversion software that might work? (mac / PC)

Thanks alot

Hey nes, thanks for the help, but I found a application that converted it for me this morning, so i'm good to go!

It was iSquint btw, if anyone else has the same problem (although it took me 5+ hours to convert)
