I was a devot follower for months. Then the pack started failing. K-Lite Mega Codec Pack is called Mega or a reason. Whoever is putting this package together, thank you for working so hard on updating it. Though i do ask just one thing. DO NOT GIVE IN TO REMOVING CODECS. Unless the companies say they'll sue you, then i guess then take them out. Other wise tell them tough luck. For now how about calling the Mega pack K-Lite Stripped Codec Pack. But then im sure Christina Aguilera would get all pissy for the Stripped part...

I originally commented on the Updated 1.59 version saying how great this codec pack is.
Well now, the pack is failing miserably. This was the ultimate codec pack, which blew every other one away, now it's been slimmed down so much a lot of its functionality has been taken away. I won't be surprised if pretty soon it becomes so limited you need other codec packs installed to get the functionality of what the K-Lite Mega Codec pack was.
I'll probably start to find another codec pack in the near future, what a shame.

No more QuickTime Alternative...
What if the people from RealMedia come with a similar threat/request? And the sellers of the DVD codecs included in K-Lite? I'm sure the DivX company is not too thrilled about having their codec inside a pack either.
Giving in to requests to remove codecs leads to a very slippery slope.

I read that codec-packages might give you big problems later on so I only install
what I need for the moment. The K-Lite pack however seems better than others.
Quicktime Alternative missing in this package? Well, I always had some problem
when using Real Alternative and Quicktime Alternative together so I've been using
Real Alternative only and the... real Quicktime. Since I almost never watch Quicktime or Real movies, they are there just in case. This time I'll download the K-Lite
Mega Codec Pack 2.25 and I hope it will fix some broken codecs reported by
Sherlock - The Codec Detective. Let's see... Now where's the original K-lite site??
Before I found you, I thought that "Het Edskes" was the place. LOL. Since their
version is 2.10 only, I'll keep codec.com in my favs. Thanks! :)

Put back Quicktime Alternative. It's NOT a "mega" pack without it.
Understand?!?!?!
Put QT Alternative back or someone will get spanked.

Awesome pack, but can someone explain why QT Alternative has been removed? Maybe I'll just stick with 2.10...

All hail K-Lite!!
My older .wav files wouldn't play and serveral .avi's. I tried uninstalling, reinstalling, and individually installing and uninstalling both DivX and Xvid packages many times. I even did the same with several versions of Windows Media Player. I can't tell you how much time I spent on this including searching for answers online. After unstalling the other codec packs K-Lite had everything working in one fell swoop.
Way to go K-Lite!
Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you...
