are you sure? here a statment from 3ivx.co regarding that issue:
Why use 3ivx D4 4.5 instead of Apple MPEG-4?
3ivx is up to twice as efficient as Apple MPEG-4. It produces the same 
quality video in half the size.
3ivx is up to five times faster at encoding.
3ivx is completely compatible with the Apple MPEG-4 Decoder built into 
and shipped with every copy of QuickTime 6.
3ivx is a faster and better decoder, but you don't need 3ivx to decode.

i uninstalled the codec and the files are still playable.
