Vista Codec Package 7.2

@Jim Schaffer
It should have been fine, but as reported before... there are many download sites that have injected Trojan/Viruses in the package. The worst of them is "brothersoft .com."

It is best to download VCP from the source: http://shark007 .net

Keep in mind "free-codecs.com" is not at all responsible for what you get from the mirror download sites. They are just are a well trusted review and link site.

Although I hate to do this on a review for a product, I would really suggest K-Lite Mega Codecs, and use the MPHC player that is offered with it.

It works quite well, EXCEPT for certain (but not all) flv files.

Does anyone have any ideas how to fix this?

If this problem gets fixed, it will get a 5 rating.

I can now play my videos but I have no sound. Does anyone have any ideas??

Love the package and great work..
The only flaw i have is when using a file sharing program such as Limewire i was able to preview a avi that was currently downloading to check its quality.. It seems that this does not work.. When i unistalled the pack and tried it tells me a codec is required.

I reinstalled and that msg does not appear, it actually looks like it is going to play but nothing but blank screen.

I can view all my other completed avi,s ..

Considering going back to xp pro if this is not resolved in upcoming patches as i download lots of avi,s .

Checking them conserves the quota that is placed on me by our ISP's

Thanks and keep up the great work. Also very simple to install.

never matter with the installation of this codec pakage but from vista codec package 4.5.2 the preview of new files are black (the preview is done from the screenshot of the first second of the movie, this is the reason...) old version didn't have this problem... there is a way to solve this problem??

sorry for the not perfect english... i'm from italy :)

Hey it's all nice, but could ya PLEASE do something so that it doesn't cripple QT FireFox MIDI playing and screw up RealPlayer functionality everytime I install it?! I'm tired of having to reinstall those two every time. =\

It didn't regiser Indeo v5.
I had to do that manually:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Drivers32]
"vidc.iv50"="ir50_32.dll"

Its awesome, its true, still it contains a few (very tinny) bugs
