In this article I explained how to download a youtube video with safari, but it does not work for some websites, eg vimeo. There’s a neat little app here called Cosmopod that will set you back $10 but worth it if you want the easiest solution.
Cosmopod will add alittle button to safari that looks like this:
You simply click on the icon when you have a movie in your browser and it will download the video and convert it to a mpeg movie.

ShareTo quote from the DivX website:
Due to limitations in the QuickTime Architecture, AVI video files containing MP3, WMA or AC3 audio tracks will not play directly in QuickTime based applications. You may experience stuttering, loss of sound, no sound or an error message.
We have written a useful application called “DivX Doctor II” which can fix these problems, and other issues QuickTime has with AVI files. You can download DivX Doctor II from http://doctor.3ivx.com/.
Here is the direct link to the file:
