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after uninstalling this "state of the art" pack and installing my favourite ACE MEGA CODECS Pack 6.03 (which is heavily outdated that's why I tried to find a replacement) surprise: ACE is not working as well...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.

AVG said it was infected with a trojan upon installing, but CODEC runs great after it was cleaned!

maybe you should go back and actually read my thread going through my problems. It's ffdshow that keeps causing problems, not codecs. Thanks for 'trying' though.

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.

I have just installed k-lite. Media Player Classic closes before I can select a file and to be completely honest, I have no idea how to use it! I want to be able to play movies that my media player says it's unable to play due as it does not support the file or codec. Can someone help me please?
