Vista Codec Package 7.2

Dear Dan,
I downloaded the latest package in Sandboxie and checked with Norton 360. The file is clean.
Please indicated which mirror you downloaded from so that can be checked and report to the good guys at Codec.com. There is unfortunately a few mirror site that come up at Codecs.com that have been known to be infected. I also have noticed that Codecs.com takes affirmative action to remove those links.
What puzzles me Dan is why you installed it if Norton's said it was infected. Set your download MRG. to scan after download, and you would not had an issue.

I personally don't use this package, but thoroughly tested it and found it to be a very clean and well thought package.

For those who want to be more security, highly suggest you learn how to use Sandboxie before moving a program to regular program files.

NOD32 is detecting a virus, I'm pretty sure it's a false positive but they should really fix that!


win32/packed.auto.gen potentially unwanted application

and this was caught in settings32.exe, Vista Codec Package.msi

dude... i tried this software and it ended up ****ing up all my .mov files and quicktime- wtf?

good but I'm now unable to view any mpg files
in windows media player 11.0.
I can hear them but not see them so it's back to previous version for me.

7Zip Problem:

Install Winzip and 7Zip.
Right click the .zip file and extract it.
The VistaCodecs_v464.exe is not actually an exe, it's a 7zip archive.
Right click the exe file, under 7zip extract it.
Run the setup.exe from the resulting extraction.

Capable of viewing video taken with camera, but no sound. Codec needed is 0010-8000-00AA00389B71. Can you refer me to the package that would help me resolve the problem I am having?

I am now able to view my videos that I took with my camera but there is no sound??? Please direct me??
Thanks.

It f*cks up my quicktime installation!

Hi All...

I cut and pasted the wrong error message. The error message I get trying to play a commercial DVD with WMP11 is

Windows Media Player cannot play this DVD because there is a problem with digital copy protection between your DVD drive, decoder, and video card. Try installing an updated driver for your video card.

Using K-lite full or Mega 3.3.0 works.

Thanks,

Hi All...

With Vista Codec Pack version 4.4.8 installed, I can't play original DVDs with Windows Media Player 11. It gives the following error message.

Windows Media Player cannot play DVD video. You might need to adjust your Windows display settings. Open display settings in Control Panel, and then try lowering your screen resolution and color quality settings.

This works if I use K-Lite Codec Pack Full 3.3.0.

Thanks,

...Karl

Works in most cases (Vista x64), had some issues that users have posted above. I ended up K-Lite (which I usually hate due to it's bundling of Yahoo) and extra/unnecessary software.

I would say, if the author can improve x64 (which he needs assistance according to his site), and improve ffdshow controls, it'll be a major improvement that I'll return to use.

It did not live up to the advertising. It said it had every codec you need. Well, it may have most, but I was hoping it would solve my missing acelp.net codec problem in WIndows Vista, but no luck.
