Quicktime (10.1) keeps quitting when I try to launch an .avi file on OS X Lion. I have removed the codecs I had installed (I used cleanmymac to completely remove leftovers) I also deleted Quicktime and re-installed it from my Lion recovery disk and the application still gives me an error report when I try to open a .avi file. Any suggestions on how to fix this? Also, the avi files are working fine on quicklook.

Here is the log file:

Try installing Quicktime Player X, or Quicktime Player 7. QT Player 7 is available on the Apple website for free and QT Player X should be on your system. Take a look at the Apple website – daviesgeek Oct 22 '11 at 19:43

I have had problems opening certain avi files with QuickTime. Is it just one file that theres a problem with? – Teak Jan 17 at 6:41
There are some that work but most files won't open. After trying to reinstall quicktimeX from recovery i don't get the error but files still don't play. – latusaki Jan 19 at 14:00
