K-Lite Mega Codec Pack 20.1.0 / 20.1.1 Beta

@Benjamin
The pack works perfectly fine on Windows XP.

Visit the forum for help. You may got a virus or something that is causing your problems.

I noticed that these newer codecs pack don't work properly in Windows XP SP3. After installation of this codec pack everything seems to work fine, but after restart of my computer, and after I connect to Internet all goes wrong. Many of the codecs and filters simply don't work, and my Windows Media player 11, Windows Media Player Classic and similar players crash every time I try to open video files in flv, avi and mpg format. Does this mean that this codec pack updates itself every time I connect to Internet and causes system errors or it is simply not fully compatible with Windows XP SP. There are no other codecs and codec packs installed.

very good codec pack

I found an audio problem during play linked files (chapter order) in mkv with FLAC audio

audio plays faster than video when linked file is started

for example OP/ED in an anime.

You can solve the flickering with this setting:
MPC Options -> Subtitles -> set "Number of subpictures to buffer ahead:" to 0.

Agreed!!!

Excellent is not a big enough word to describe the quality, versatility, and performance of this package!

I've been using it since 2001 (AMD Athlon 1200 MP) and it is ALWAYS a standard I point out to others by which they should compare.

I've recommended this pack to more people than I can remember!!!!

Ty

Using it for years now and recommended it to many others.

'Excellent' is not enough to beat this one!

Best codec pack ever!Simple as that.

Install "Rad Game Tools Splitter" and you can play bink and smacker files.

VBR means variable bitrate. The properties tab will show the average.

Report your FLV problem on the Codec Guide forum with a sample. Or submit it to the MPC-HC developers.

@nod32
Report your problem to the ffdshow developers.

There are no developers present here on the free-codecs.com website. Please report your problems directly to the appropriate developers.

Select ffdshow as decoder for H.264 video and the thumbnails should work.

Problem with explorer thumbnails it's doesn't work for me (use OS windows XP sp.3)
Thank you!

The updates just keep getting better!
Flawless performance.

Now to change the subject to those that are having issues with MPC/H
Keep in mind that those that are distributed with K-lite are beta versions.
The true latest stable build is:
v1.3.1249.0 / 27 august 2009
and can be downloaded here:
http://mpc-hc.sourceforge .net/History.html

MPCH is by far one of the best players, and is mine by choice. Yet I have had issues with versions released with K-lite.

Highly recommend using only the version from the official sourceforge site to reduce issues.

Ok, i've got it...
I was loading the avi files from an iso/image file with low capacity on that drive.

When i copied the avi file to another drive and played the k-lite player it worked well...

5 stars...

@jfgj
You are NOT using the latest version. You are using 4.1.6, which is very old.

Hey everyone I was hoping I could get an answer to this Q: Does this codec pack allow you to compress videos in Windows Movie Maker for Vista??(MP4) THX!!

Have been using for years. Great Package!!
I found a problem in the recent versions up to current with getting an error "Incorrect BASS.DLL version (2.3 is required)" when playing *.aac files only (playback is OK once you dismiss the error message).
The library for bass_flac.dll is version 2.3 and needs to be updated to 2.4 to work with aac files.

Download : BASSFLAC 2.4
From : http://www.un4seen .com
File Need: bassflac.dll

Copy to : C:\Program Files\K-Lite Codec Pack\filters
Delete old : bass_flac.dll
Rename : bassflac.dll to bass_flac.dll
