k-lite pack/cccp = teh suxor

Please install decent video playback codecs/software. The two best options are Media Player Classic + FFdShow, or VLC Player. These are the most option filled, easiest to use, and least system f-ing up video solutions to install. You can usually find Media Player Classic bundled with the newest versions of Quicktime Alternative as well.

I use AVG Free for anti-virus. Why? 1) It's free! 2) It is easy to setup to self-maintain/update. 3) It's free! 4) It works well and is made by a reputable company. 5) It's free!

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Really? As I have looked into it, CCCP seems to install multiple codecs onto your system. This is generally always bad, because uninstalling codecs that have been installed this way is often a nightmare. That's the reason FFdShow is so great because all the codecs are not installed seperately, but are decoders in the FFdShow filter.

If you are correct as CCCP ONLY installs FFdShow for decoding, then yeah, its a very nice pack. Haali Media Splitter and vsfilter are also great to have (i have them), so if you could verify this (with a link maybe?) that would be great info for me to have. Also, how can you know what versions/builds of MPC, HaaliMS, VSFilter, FFdShow you are installing?

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I've heard more of Zonealarm and never really heard negatives about it... (if that info helps)

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Found the page I needed....

http://www.cccp-project.net/wiki/ind...e=Advanced_FAQ

After seeing this, I can definitely recommend CCCP. I personally won't use it (because I'm a video tweaker that does more custom stuff) but for the general populace, this is a great and simple solution to video playback on windows PC.

:EDIT:

Thanks for the links Soluzar!
