K-Lite Mega Codec Pack
K-Lite Codec Pack is a collection of codecs, DirectShow filters and
tools. Codecs and DirectShow filters are needed for encoding and
decoding (playing) audio and video formats. The K-Lite Codec Pack is
designed as a user-friendly solution for playing all your movie files.
With the K-Lite Codec Pack you should be able to play all the popular
audio and video formats and even some rare formats.
The K-Lite Codec Pack has a couple of major advantages compared to
other codec packs:
- It it always very up-to-date with the newest (and/or best)
versions of the components.
- It is very user-friendly.
- The installation is fully customizable, meaning that you
are able install exactly those components that you really want.
- Uninstallation removes all files and registry entries
created by the pack.
- It is extremely easy to make a fully customized unattended
installation.
- It has been very well tested, so that the package doesn't
contain any conflicting or buggy codecs.
- It tries to avoid potential problems with existing codecs
and even fixes some problems. The pack is able to detect broken codecs
and filters on your system, and remove them for you.
- It is a very complete package, containing everything you
need to play your movies.
- There are different packages. From small to extra-large.
- Suitable for both novice and expert users.
There are three versions of the K-Lite Codec Pack: Basic, Standard and
Full.
Basic
contains only the most essential things. It contains everything you
need to be able to play the two most popular and widespread formats,
DivX and XviD. With this you should be able to play most DVDrips and
TVrips.
Standard
contains everything you need to play all the most commonly used
formats. This package should be enough for the average user.
Full
contains even more codecs. It also has encoding support for
various formats. This package is for power users and people who do
video editing/encoding.
There also is a Mega
version. It includes everything that the Full version has, plus
QuickTime Alternative and Real Alternative.
