QuickTime is “legacy”

Hap Video Codec Download Mac

Since 10.15 release, QuickTime no longer works in macOS.
QuickTime codecs are only visible in applications using Quicktime 32-bit API, like Final Cut Pro or QuickTime Player.
More recent applications, like Final Cut X or QuickTime X, use a different codec mechanism.

What is QuickTime ?

QuickTime is an extensible proprietary multimedia framework developed by Apple Inc., capable of handling various formats of digital video, picture, sound, panoramic images, and interactivity (as seen in Wikipedia's entry).
Important thing here is the capability to expand the formats supported by the framework installing new codecs.


QuickTime natively comes with a number of popular and general-purpose codecs, including H.264, DV, JPEG, MPEG4 Video, ... but most professional and domain-specific codecs must be installed separately.

Missing Codec?

QuickTime will show you a specific error message when trying to open a video or audio file containing unsupported media:

  • The document could not be opened. A required codec isn't available.
  • Additional software is required for QuickTime to playback this media.

For other error messages, please check this list of QuickTime Errors.

How to install QuickTime codecs in Mac OS X

In case the codec bundle comes with an installer just run the installation assistant and, if requested, reboot your computer.

If no installer is available then you should know that any codec you may need should be placed inside the folder /Library/QuickTime.
Just copy the component file (i.e.'PerianXDCam.component') and relaunch any QuickTime dependent application you might have open.

How to uninstall QuickTime codecs in Mac OS X

There are different ways to uninstall a QuickTime codec. First of them is just trashing the component file from the /Library/QuickTime folder. This is really straight forward but has an inconvenient as if codec is required again you should have to download, unzip and copy the component file just trashed.
A more convenient way to 'uninstall' such codecs is just creating a folder called 'Inactive' and dropping the component files you don't need there.
Just make sure to relaunch any QuickTime application you might have open to apply the changes done.
Finally you could also run the uninstaller assistant to get rid of them (in case there's such assistant available).
