there r two codec packs available, one is Ace mega codec pack and the other is k-lite mega codec pack.... which is better among both.....
I usually disapprove Codec Packs. A better option is to install the codecs seperately. But you can go for K-Lite if you do not want all that trouble.
BTW, i dont know how many of you are aware, but QuickTime alternative is Warez or Cracked, whatever you wanna call it.
Open the Quicktime Applet from Control Panel after installin the alternatives. Quicktime pro is enabled using an unlocking key, which i believe it not legal way of doing so.
Correct me if anyone feels otherwise.
played a wmv clip. works perfectly
try reinstalling the k-lite codec pack. it should help
K-Lite is the best one out there...
klite ROCKS !! (during install choose lots of stuff .. u get the best deal)
wmv plays perfectly ..
@vish786 select lots of stuff while installing .. maybe that will help . .
i generally choose everything while installing codec packs coz they don't consume too much space.
+1 for K-Lite.
Using it for a year now. Haven't got any problem yet.
Are there any other codec packs available.
ACE Mega codec pack is better, quality of avi files feels better compared to Klite Mega codec pack.
But here are the cons of ACE Mega codec pack:
1) One of the dll provided is a debug version. (try running dxdiag and see the dlls)
2) You cant play FEAR with ACE mega codec installed.
Only thing good about Klite Mega codec pack is that it has got much good developer support and updates comes as n when they are released.
Personally i dont like any codec pack but like to install these three codec separately.
1) Xvid
2) QuickTime Altenative
3) Real Alternative
As for player
1) VLC plays everything (built in codecs)
2) any other player will do after installing above mentioned codecs.
yeah , use K-Lite Codec Pack or K-Lite Mega Codec Pack , both r install n forget
