probably the best codec pack ever made! don't use k-lite it's bloatware.

I can't seem to get it to work. I clicked "keep" but no option to "run" came up. Only "do you want to allow this program to make changes to this computer" and I said "yes" It's showing as a program in my start menu however when I try to play a mkv file on my media player it still isn't working! Anyone Please help!!!!

The last time this was bundled with software which led me to this site to download it totally f**ked computer i had lost my files and had to do a reformat :(



Admin's note: the installer is 100% clean. Obviuosly you didn't download the software from codecs.com

Congratulations its the best media pack. its excellent to use it with my videos, animes etc. thanks

@MPCuser

Are you sure you picked the 8/07 beta, NOT the 9/09 official? You must pick the beta.

This is actually CCCP 2009 build. Unfortunately it doesn't work with windows 7 32 bit and 64 bit at all.

On the official site they haven't even released the 2010 build yet.

I cannot "Save Thumbnail" with MPC-HC though. Always "out of memory", however, with MPC standard, it works normally.

i have a MAC and i was wondering if there is a installation for it?

I think it is the best Media Pack.Excellent....5 Stars...But I wonder why "free-codecs.com" hide this excellent codec pack.Because we can not see it in main page...

haha, great pack. i use it for all of my anime/movies, etc. best part about it is chiyo-chan from azumanga daioh as the intro picture that is shown at the end of the anime, i love it, that series rocks, good choice, good program.. excellent

installation was a breeze, with easy settings and it did not break anything.

For general playback, this plays the majority of video files.
It was made with anime in mind so it handles videos with subtitles and dual audio really well.

My favourite thing about the CCCP is its minimalism. Its tiny and only installs a few codecs, keeping things running fast and needing little to no configuration.

My only real gripe is the lack of Real and Quicktime support, but that's easily fixed with a Real and Quicktime Alternative codec.

Overall, this is my favourite general purpose codecs, and i recommend it. installing CCCP and JetAudio media player works great....

... Or you could can the lot and install VLC. That plays practically everything, including Quicktime and Real without any extra codecs. But that's another review. :-D

Hope that helps

For the standard fair of anime, movies, TV shows, and music this codec pack plays most everything except for Real and Quicktime. It seems to install only what you need. I use this pack on both my old PIII and an a newer Athlon with no resource problems to speak of.

I haven\'t had the video problems that crop up from time to time with Ace and K-Lite.

I recommend the codec pack if you watch more standard video. If your tastes lean to the more exotic or you are an editor, I would look elsewhere.
