A note before beginning: you can still have QuickTime 7 on Snow Leopard, you have to insert the Snow Leopard DVD, enter the folder for optional installations and start the installation for optional applications. Then, there, select QuickTime 7 and install it.

Back to QuickTime X. The use is very simple:

  1. Download it (it’s just 12kb)
  2. Extract it
  3. Place the file into the Applications folder
  4. Open your MKV file with this app

You can download it directly from here: Plugin for Perian and QT-X (23447)

I’m sorry that I don’t know whom to give credits.
