The following full-length review applies to version 4.1
Codec are encoders and decoders that let you play multimedia files on your computer. As you may know codecs are not free, most of them are commercial and do not offer anything special that you can`t find on those free ones. But with k-lite it is even easier, because you get all of them in one setup.
K-Lite Codec Pack (Full) 4.1 is a pack that combines in a single installer more than a dozen of codecs and utilities so you do not have any problem playing videos, sound or even your DVD
K-Lite Codec Pack Full 4.1.4 conveniently lets you choose, using checkboxes, the components you want to install and those who do not.
Besides Codecs, it includes DirectShow filters (substitles and second voice tracks) and other multimedia tools. They are required to encode and decode (to play) audio and video formats. It also includes several video players, including Media Player Classic and Bsplayer, that are able to open any file format without issues.
K-Lite Codec Pack Full 4.1.4 supports Windows 2000/XP/2003/Vista, before you install it, is recommended to uninstall any other packages. |
