Answer» For ages now I have seen codec programs, and when I get them I never know where to install them, so they dont seem to make any difference, for example would I install it into VLC video player? If not where?
The screenshot below is an example of the type of program I am talking about....
Also, is it even a good idea to install these things? A google search found some stuff where some people werent too crazy about them.....
[SAVING DISK space - old attachment deleted by admin]Uhh what? If you're using VLC player you have no need for codec packs since VLC uses its own internal codecs.
Codec packs can be a real MESS. Windows Essentials Codec Pack is okay because it doesn't install a lot of codecs that conflicts with each other.I use VLC when I have to, but prefer WMP but that doesnt PLAY nearly as many video FILES as VLC....That is because WMP relies on external codecs. In other words you'll need to install codecs for the formats you want to be able to play.
