    Actually, while it¹s true there isn¹t any support in VLC, it¹s not
impossible to watch a DivX movie with WMA audio in Mac OS X.  It just takes
a little work.  There is a WMA extension available for Mac OS 9 here:
<http://appleguru.home.attbi.com/wmaaudio.sit.hqx>.
Simply drop this in your Classic System Folder¹s Extensions folder, and then
get DivX Doctor 2.1 here: <http://doctor.3ivx.com/download.html>.  Before
opening DivX Doctor 2.1, Get Info on it and check the box ³Open in the
Classic Environment².  Then simply open DivX Doctor 2.1 and choose to doctor
your DivX movie with WMA audio.  The resulting QuickTime movie will play in
Mac OS X without a hitch.  Oh, and don¹t forget to uncheck the ³Open in the
Classic Environment² box when your done, as DivX Doctor otherwise works just
fine in Mac OS X.
Hope this helped!
