K-Lite Mega Codec Pack 20.1.0 Final

this version crashes my pc when playing avi files.
No FAQ did not help.
Disabling ffdshow.ax filter helped but then a couldn't play some of the other files.
trying 6.2

People who have problems with this pack should really read the included FAQ. It has solutions for many common problems. A solution for COOK audio is also explained in there.

for the cook audio fix from muli: works like a charm for me, thank you

if some are unclear,

recent K-lite Mega codec pack
can't play rmvb cook audio since 6.3

a simple fix

AFTER you installed

I've tried Muli's method but it still doesn't work. i extracted the files and placed the folder in C:\\Windows but it still doesn't work.
any suggestions?

@mdevil6

What did you download from that address, please write specific file name, in advance grateful

PS I am using VISTA

Been using it for few years now.... awesome package

thanks to "muli" for the RMVB fix..

the recent versions 6.3.0 and 6.4.0 doesn't play rmvb well. audio is missing. cannot find audio such as cook.dll. The previous version runs fine.
And it crashes when trying to play vob (DVD) files.

I've been using K-Lite Mega Codec Pack for a couple of years and I couldn't be more satisfied

Concerning RMVB-files - from the offical FAQ:

Q: RMVB files play without sound
A: You are probably missing a decoder for RealAudio COOK. You can install that by following these steps:

1. Download the Windows version of binary codec pack for MPlayer.
http://www.mplayerhq.hu/design7/dload.html#binary_codec
2. Extract these files from the .zip archive: cook.dll, pncrt.dll, sipr3260.dll, drv33260.dll, drv43260.dll
3. Put those files in this folder: C:\Windows

@zonk

Yes, it works great on Windows 7 x64.

@Dave:
It looks like you didn't download it properly. Give it another go.

having problem setting xvid encoder through k-lite sub menu configuration.
but work well when opened via virtualdub/ virtualdubmod.

playing rmvb file, audio is gone.
codec missing???

With earlier versions of K-Lite Mega I could play .flv files (from YouTube etc.) with Windows Media Player without any problems. Since version 5.8.x, I can't play FLV files with WMP. I wonder why?

And btw, sometimes during installation (Playback only without player) K-Lite reports error when installing Direct VobSub.

@jason

You should install both packs. The 64-bit one for thumbnailing in explorer. The 32-bit one for playback with MPC or WMP or any other player.

I have a suggestion/request: maybe you could change Wordpad from being the default application for opening help files. Notepad will do just fine by me.

Thank you.
