Getting Perian 1.1.4 to work Snow Leopard 10.6 to work

There’s a problem with getting Perian to work in Snow Leopard. But there’s a quick fix outlined here, but If the PreferencePane is installed to only the current user, you need to paste the following into the terminal:

cd
cd Library/PreferencePanes/Perian.prefPane/Contents/Resources/Components
cp Perian.zip ~/Downloads
<code> cp CoreAudio/A52Codec.zip ~/Downloads
cp QuickTime/AC3MovieImport.zip ~/Downloads
cd ~/Downloads
unzip AC3MovieImport.zip
unzip A52Codec.zip
unzip Perian.zip
sudo mv Perian.component/ /Library/QuickTime/
sudo mv AC3MovieImport.component/ /Library/QuickTime/
sudo mv A52Codec.component/ /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components/

    I think that this is actually fixed but haven’t tried.
