yeah, codec packs seem kinda heavy for a system, but they're so easy to use. Could you make a list of the codecs you use? I'm planning on doing the same but dont know which one to download
Indeo-for older games. DivX/Xvid - The codec of choice for most of the video's I've encountered. MSU Lossless - I used this to archive video's that where important to me and I didn't want to degrade the video quality. If I encounter a video that doesn't play I run it though gspot to see what codec it needs.
I just use WMP and as much of the original codecs I can. If I play a Quicktime movie, I use Quicktime and so on.
CCCP & MPC Was using BS Player v1.38 for sometime before switching to MPC. The latest version of BSP comes with ad ware MPC seems to be able to play anything I throw at it
Adware? That sucks. I hate it when software turn to the worse. MPC seems to be quite popular in the forums so far
Really? Does anyone know how to configure MPC to play videos in 5.1 speakers? Cause it sounds weird to me compare the sounds i get in VLC (VLC tends to crash when playing FULL HD) videos.
Iono, I don't have an ATI 2x00 card myself so I can't find a solution lol There must be a work-around to this though.
I was using K-Lite before CCCP and found out that some videos could not be played like MKV files which I had to download a separate codec for that, or some other issues like video playing but no audio. CCCP plays everything Some other lesser known codec packs out there seem to have additional adware packaged with it as I discovered when some of my friends were complaining why their machines are crashing or running slowly.
