I'm thinking of going to a different codec pack. Why did they ruin it?

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?

I installed K-Lite Codec Pack full version. DVD playing is choppy but audio is good. So, the vuideo falls behind and then catches up with the audio. Any idea what's causing this?

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!

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

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.

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?

I believe something is wrong with this software.

If I enable the same tweaks with the ffdshow video decoder that I was using with version 3.5.4, it freezes up my computer as soon as I stop playing the video. I have to manually restart the computer. It's doing something bad.

It's a great codec pack, except for one thing. Xvid. I've had ~8 installations that wouldn't install xvid codecs properly and for that reason I recommend XP Codec Pack instead.

this codek pack is everything u need to play allmost any video file. the only thing that makes this not worthwhile is the fact that if u have 5.1 setup u will not get any sound in your rear speakers when playing from stereo source.
so all in all a good upload just not what i needed on my system. If other ppl have the same prob, i can recommend trying gordian knot codec pack. It did the job for me.
