Ashira Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 I urge you to uninstall that and install ffdshow instead. K-Lite packages installs a lot of bloated filters and messes up your system. Even if it still works, it still installs a lot of crap. http://www.free-codecs.com/download/FFDShow.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be interesting to have a look ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
l fish Posted July 12, 2006 Author Share Posted July 12, 2006 I have looked at your link to the discussion and it seems quite interesting. What I cannot make up through the whole muddle is: for a newbie what is the best one to use for simple video viewing? Also what is wrong in having more than one player?

Const2k Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 I've expressed my point of view on codecs by summing everything up in post #13 there. Everyone may have as many players as they like; but most of us like quite a few players (and tastes vary :) ), hence we don't have many of them installed :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark_Shroud Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 Plus its easier to get one player that plays everything setup the way we like it instead of having to deal with 4 or 5 players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
l fish Posted July 13, 2006 Author Share Posted July 13, 2006 Got it. I guess I will try them and see which one suits me better. Thanks for all the help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
