@greg:
auto load Vsfilter is on, which is why it does work in windows media player.
I also tried updating directx to the latest version as i read somewhere that could solve the problem (it didn't).

@ Milenko
You need to enable the option "Auto-load VSFilter" in Haali Media Splitter options.
Then Media Center should load the subtitles like the other players do.

Since I upgraded to version 4.10 I can not get linked subs to work in Mediacenter xp. They do work in windows mediaplayer.
embedded fonts (in an .mkv container) work in both players.
I tried installing older versions of vsfilter.dll but the problem remains. If I have a movie.mkv and a movie.srt in the same folder it will load in windows media player but not in windows media center. Vsfilter.dll just doesn't load.
It always used to work with klite 3.90 which I used until yesterday.
does anyone know a fix for this?

@Alex & Flamberg
The pack is not responsible for generating thumbnails. Windows Explorer does that using a shell extension.
You must have installed something else that broke thumbnail generation.
Try this to fix it:
Start > Run > regsvr32 shmedia.dll

I just installed this new version. With the previous version my avi files would get thumbnails but with this new version there is no thumbnail. Anyone have any idea how to fix this?

This is a very good pack. I use it all the time. However, it has troube with the ehome of VISA recently. It seems to be caused by a update of VISA, but I am not sure about this. The problme is that the ehrecvr.exe servcie always consumes all of my memory about 99%. After my try to disable some codecs, the requested memory is smaller. That is pretty strange! The ac3filter also takes about (471-125)MBytes if it is enabled. Thanks to the GSpot tool; I find a way to not use the ac3filter. Currently, it still takes 125MBytes!

Just went from 3.7.0 to 4.0.0
Media Player Classic was NOT included, in spite of all the options for associating files.
Had to download it manually, and all seems fine though.

Try selecting the system default AVI splitter (Microsoft) instead of the Gabest one during installation.

This version has a problem with some AVI files, motion stops completely in certain frames for a few seconds. Older version 2.82 or VLC (Videolan) is ok playing the same file.

The pack ONLY configures the components that are included in the pack. It does not change any other settings.
The problem that you describe occurs for example when you play 5.1 channel audio on stereo speakers. It can be solved very easily by configuring the audio decoder (or the player) to convert the 6 audio channels into two output channels.
The pack has a speaker configuration option in the installer and also in its tweak tool.

bad codecs, ever since i installed them ive got audio problem on pc, i try uninstalling but it seems it changes settings,
the problem is lets say i want to listen music
where a band sings [ more than 1 person],
well the music and the singer on main mic will hear with normal sound, while all others singing behind will hardly be hard [ i had to turn speakers to maximum to hear them].
well the problem is you cannot fix that by uninstalling codec, the only way i could do it was reinstalling windows xp.

The best feature in Media Player Classic is how the user can increase video size within the window using 2,4,6,8. Appreciate the great codec pack. Oh btw, for my no audio problem i had, I had accidentally put on 3/0/2 - 5 channel under FFDshow Mixer column, and changing it back to 2/0 Stereo speaker setup, allowed me to cure my NO SOUND playing MPG in K-Lite Codec Pack and WMP and Windows Media Player.

Ok, what did i do now?
I get no sound on some MPGs during playback. I have had this problem since v3.75. Audio plays fine in VLC Media Player.
I run install at Default Settings changing very little if anything.

Gents,
Switch to VideoLan VLC player. Plays everything!!!
http://www.videolan .org
I've used K Lite for years but I've had problems since with recent avi files.
A lot of codecs have been released for HD broadcasting this is the cause of a lot of problems. You may have heard of them. H.264 (x.264 MPEG-4 AVC). This H.264 is used my many of the UK broadcasters.
The problem is this is more of a catagory as it can H.264 can have different A/V decoders and a single codec pack won't provide all of them
I friend put me onto VLC and I haven't had a problem since and it plays all HD avi files without any problems. It free to download and is supported on pretty much all system inluding linux.
It also supports a lor more file formats such as MKV and a lot more.
Hope this solves your problems.
TA!

If Heaven had a codec pack, I think this would be that pack. I'm not a big downloader of films and the like, so when some videos I had on my compie suddenly stopped working, I was quite worried. Until I randomly stumbled here. They work again! I could kiss someone! :D

@engru
Your problem is not caused by the codec pack. That does not install any Windows Media stuff.
All I can suggest is to update your nvidia driver and install WMP11.

@Greg
thanks for your replay but i googled "dxva_sig.txt" & none of the solutions worked plus can't find the "DXVA hardware acceleration for Windows Media" option in my graphic card
sorry to bother you but i tried to solve it for 5 hours & couldn't solve it so do you know any other way to solve this problem?
note that this is the 1st time this happened & i'v been using this codec pack for over a year
other note i have nvidia 6600LE graphic card & i have a wmp9 in my system (yup i tried wmp10 & 11 & still the same problem even after update)
hope you can help
thanks in advance & sorry to bother

That dxva_sig.txt file is created by the Windows Media codecs from Microsoft. Disable DXVA hardware acceleration for Windows Media in your graphics card control panel.
Just google "dxva_sig.txt" for more info.

this pack is really one of the best out there
tho i'm having a problem in the recent update, when i try to open a .wmv video with MPclassic the video slows down really bad & a text file shows up with the name "dxva_sig" & in the text file there is only the letter "B" & it runs also slow with the wmplayer but the text file doesn't show up & it runs normal with the VLC player tho there is no sound so anyone knows what the problem? since this is the 1st time i encounter a problem with this codec pack
thanks in advance
note: i'm sure there is no virus in my system & all the video format works fine (even the HD & FHD ones) except for the .wmv

This pack works perfectly fine on a clean Windows install. So either you did something wrong, or more likely, your problems are caused by buggy graphics drivers.

This masterpiece does something which is rarely seen nowadays: IT CAN F**K UP A FRESH WinXP INSTALL completely just by installing it using the default settings.
"Clean uninstall including registry cleanup is a major feature" they say. However after uninstalling this "state of the art" pack and installing my favourite ACE MEGA CODECS Pack 6.03 (which is heavily outdated that's why I tried to find a replacement) surprise: ACE is not working as well... This m*f* screw up something.
gotta go to reinstall windows again...

That is a false positive detection of AVG. It probably deleted the uninstaller.

Playback of WMV files is done purely with codecs from Microsoft.

I've tried reinstalling it again, double-checking to make sure in the last phase I checked "reset to default settings" and that problem seemed to go away.
Before I did that though, I disabled the ffdshow directshow decoders and that also fixed the problems. We were back to square 1, folks. Also, I couldn't play .flv files before this fresh reinstall.

It's friggin happening again! 3.6.5 was working perfectly fine, but as soon as I changed to 3.7.0, I tried to open an .wmv file and there was no sound, and as soon as I stopped playing the video, my whole pc froze up and I had to manually turn it off, and turn it on again a few minutes later.

K-Lite is the best codec pack available. It will most likely solve your problems.
If you still can not play the file after installing the pack, then open your file in the included GSpot tool. That can tell you what kind of audio in inside your AVI file.
