What codec pack should I install?


Recommended Posts

Zup msfn'ers?

I reformated my pc and need to install some codecs again in the system. I've always heard that installing ANY codec pack can mess up your PC...as in codecs not actually working and then being unable to remove/reinstall. Once I had trouble with the AC3 codecs. The app Gspot said I had the codec installed and it would would with the vid I had but I could not listen to any vid's that contained that audio codec.

Fee-codecs has a boat load of different drivers like XP Codec Pack, Codec Pack All in 1, etc...

What do you recommend I install? I want to able to watch most (or all) types of videos that are available on the web.

Thanks,

ceez

I'll give K-Lite Codec Pack 2.67 Standard a try.

Anyone else have a different choice?

Do you need any specific codecs? Because otherwise it's definitely not worth installing such a huge codecpack.

I dont use codec pack, the are nasty.

I use ac3 codec for audio dvd.

divx

xvid

and It' all I need, in case of rm use realalternative and same 4 mov.

I also love VLC.
