If you’ve noticed the Codec Packs video codecs, this blog post should help.
There are almost four different versions of the k-lite codec pack. The idea includes only the most important decoders for you, from a very small package to a larger and more extensive package. The general differences between the options can be found below. You can find detailed differences in the comparison options and therefore on the content comparison pages.
These codec packs are generally compatible with Windows Vista / 7/8 / 8.1 / 10. Older versions are also compatible with XP. Packages contain both 32-bit and 64-bit codecs, so they work well on x86 and x64 versions with Windows!
Simple
Small, but extremely powerful!
Already contains everything you need to play all popular video and audio formats with file quality.
Note. Version B ASIC does NOT include a drive. You must use it with a DirectShow player already installed, such as Windows Media Player. If you are having problems playing with WMP, please read our FAQ section to find solutions.
We recommend using the K-Lite Standard, which includes MPC-HC, it is also a very good player.

Same as Basic plus:
Home Theater Media Classic Player (MPC-HC) Not a great reader. Highly Recommended! It offers high quality playback with many useful options.
MediaInfo Lite This is a tool for getting detailed information about media files.
This is the recommended option for the general public. Use it if you don’t know which violayou need the native ones. It already has almost everything you need to read. Superfluous components contained in advanced versions are useless for the vast majority of users.

Included, plus:
GraphStudioNext Tool for creating test diagrams and DirectShow.
Various ACM / VFW codecs such as x264VFW and this type of lagarith codec are used by some editing / c applicationsVideo encoding for working with AVI files. For example VirtualDub. These codecs are not used or required to play videos on the Internet. Important Note: The K-Lite Codec Pack does not extend the import capabilities of professional video editors such as Vegas Movie Studio or Adobe Premiere. Most of these applications only support importing certain file formats and do not support the use of codecs also included in the codec pack (DirectShow / VFW). Modern authors often use only native codecs for internal surface or only supporting external codecs such as Media Foundation.
And some additional DirectShow filters:
The ffdshow audio / video processor offers several filtering systems to handle decoded audio or video.
ffdshow
audio / video decoder is an alternative for many video audio / video LAV decoders.
AC3Filter
Alternative range for LAV audio decoders.
Important note: the top filters mentioned above are not installed by default. We also do not recommend choosing these outdated filters. They only careabout a small group of people who have exactly one reason to use them. We strongly recommend that you use the extension decoders from the package. It is better.
Important Note: All of the extra features included in Mega are only useful to a small group of people. It does not provide the ability to play additional audio or video formats. If you are only interested in reading, then the full version is already fine for you.
