Video Codecs

Nefarious · 6 Jan 2009 at 10:34

I'm having difficulty playing an avi, video component is fine but the audio is giving me trouble.

I ran the file through g-spot and it found a filter to decode the audio using the audio component of my Cyberlink DVD software (DSH Friendly Name CyberLink Audio Decoder) but g-spot can't seem to play both audio and video at the same time.

Any ideas.....?

Try VLC player.

If that doesn't work, google K-Lite codec pack. That should sort you out =]

No! Don't use K-lite, it's not good. Use CCCP - Combined Community Codec Pack. All open source and constantly updated. Comes with Zoom player and Media Player Classic.

Been using this for years, best codec pack I've came across, and I've used them all pretty much.

What's wrong with K-Lite Codec Pack?

The codecs it uses are essentially 'pirated', it's considered warez in some places, plus I've seen it have some added extras in the form of adware/malware.

Just use VLC Player, it plays pretty much anything, no need to install any codecs and it's free!
