K-Lite Mega Codec Pack 19.0.5 / 19.0.8 Beta reviews

K lite is working fine every time i instaled a new version.you have to run a reg cleaner, your reg extension is mess up

7.5.0 It's working Great! but not support 10-bit h264 yet.

K-Lite Mega Codec Pack 5.6.1.0 is the best but the new verison have problems in some avi & rm files.But it still first best Codec in the world.

Awesome codec pack. With this you won't need any other to play your media files and with a player supporting ffdshow and external codecs you will enjoy seamless playback for hours without a single playback error or missing codec.

I have used K-lite for years along with recently deceased KM Player (I know theres a new chinese site for it but the sound quality is horrible now) and now Im with GOM player.

I knocked off 1 star because recent K-lite 7.2 Mega Codec Pack did something and now all my media can't be associated to any player (not just GOM) I suspect its registry problem as when I uninstalled previous version of codec pack it detected broken/missing codecs.

Same old procedure uninstall previous version of K-lite, restart, install new version, restart never had any problems doing that before.

Generally, troubled by even with necessary filters installed in VirtualDub, impossible to open .mkv and some other types which needed some manual tweaking and/or other filter add-ons. "Excellent" - it is universal and stable.

Yeeeeah, now the internal DXVA H.264 decoder of Media Player Classic is workin' on Win7! So great :)
I also found a poll about this here

http://poll.pollhost .com/Y29kZWNndWlkZQkxMjc5MTMzNzcxCUVFRUVFRQkwMDAwMDAJQXJpYWwJQXNzb3J0ZWQJMA/

So, for 64% of people who voted it's workin' fine.

The internal filter H264/AVC (DXVA) in Media Player Classic - home cinema is NOT workin' now on Windows 7.

It was working before,... that was the only way the full HD 1080i videos played well on my PC... with ffdshow video decoder the Full HD videos(in H.264 format) don't play well, 'cause it requires more resources than the internal filter I think... Can somebody help me pleaseee... :)

I just downloaded the K-Lite Mega Codec and have already made use of it. I have already found that it has fixed problems and given me support for everything I need. With the K-Lite Mega Codec, I will be shocked to ever again find a media file that I cannot play on my computer.

I would recommend this to anybody. The K-Lite Mega Codec is essential for any user on the Internet. This is worth downloading, no matter how large the file size, no matter how long it takes to download, and no matter how bad people claim it to be.

Any of those that are hesitant to download the K-Lite Mega Codec, I strongly recommend you download it.

Ive used k-lite mega for a year or so with no problems....
But theres something wrong with the 1.16 mega and the 2.34 versions.

I had to system restore on one machine to clear up regsvr.exe and activemovie window problems on XP Pro SP2 and the machine i'm on now is gonna need the same treatment i think. Mega pack 1.03 is fine.

With the latest version 7.10 I'm not able to play some mkv files with Haali splitter.
Using the MPC's internal splitter or re-installing K-Lite with Gabest splitter for mkv and the file plays fine again.

thanks to Raymonardo, the rmvb type now no longer asks for cook codec. It works!! ;)
K-Lite is the most player i always prefer when watching favorite movies. But recently they got some bugs, ain't it? Hope it will be fixed soon.. =)

Do what Raymonardo (comment #313) said... And you guys will also be able to play rmvb files ^_^

KLM is my only codec I prefer to use since 2004...

it easy, simple, , support most video, light and fast...

I hope for the next KLM Codec...it would have video rotating feature...

coz some of my recording video was record upside down...

it would be useful if have it...

Ease up Hatem.

Just follow Raymonardo's instructions: download http://www.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/releases/codecs/windows-essential-20071007.zip and extract. Copy the five dll files to C:\windows\system32. That's it.

Worked like a charm. Thanks Raymonardo.

Very useful pack as usual , but unfortunately Real audio codec (COOK) problem still exists , the reason is obvious the codec is copyrighted and nonfree and this pack is free and still there isn't any alternative libraries .

I tried the solution mentioned in FAQ on my win7 and didn't work , after coping the five dlls and still the same problem playing RMVBs . I think in win7 it's the ***king user privileges issues preventing the mpc-hc from accessing a directory or I should install mpc instead .

And I noticed some lag playing FLVs as well .

keep the god work up and thanks
