Codec Packs ?

#1 Post by dd » Mon Mar 14, 2005 1:41 am

Hello

Does anybody have the URL where I can download a decent codec pack that allows me to play mpg, avi, divx and .mov files? I have tried several, but none seem to play all formats. A version without any bloatware would be appreciated

Many Thanks

I don't think there's any one codec pack that covers all formats.

DivX

Mov

I don't think the codec is the problem, have you tried using a different player?

Thanks again for your response.

I am having a more success . . now that I have downloaded the last 2 codecs you listed in the previous post. Silly me!

Many thanks
