Flip4Mac is a trademarked brand name for Telestream, Inc.'s proprietary digital media tools for the Macintosh. It is usually used in extending QuickTime to support codecs of windows media on Mac. This 'Windows Media Components for QuickTime' allows transparent playback of the most common Windows Media Video and Windows Media Audio formats on Mac OS X inside QuickTime applications and web browsers.

Telestream previously offered it as a free player while charging for their 'Pro' and higher featured versions until the release of v3.3 on May 1, 2014 when they began charging for the entry level player. So Flip4Mac is not free now.

People began to find an alternative to Flip4Mac after they updated their Mac computer to Mac OS X 10.9 Mavericks but found that it is not fully-compatible with Flip4Mac. They found they cannot play WMV, MKV, AVI video files on Mac even with Flip4Mac installed.
