Windows Media Player Codec Pack 4.2.5

What Is Media player Codec Pack

A codec is a computer program that can encode or decode video. Many codec’s work for many types of video. Some codecs ship with your computer (for example, your computer can play DivX-encoded files—which you'll often see with an AVI extension—out of the box), while others may not (for example, your operating system will often have problems playing H.264 video, often with the MKV file extension, without some extra effort on your part). If you download a video your computer can't play, it will often ask you to download and install the correct codec, so your default media player can play it


Codec packs are pieces of software that attempt to make the process easier by installing a number of different codecs at once, so you don't have to deal with finding each one individually. Sounds awesome, right? Unfortunately, they tend to cause more problems than they solve, conflicting with other programs, not to mention sometimes being hotbeds for adware and/or spyware. For the majority of people, we don't recommend using them.

And before you write in the comments "I use K-Lite/Shark007/whatever and never had any problems! N00bs!" I'll say: That's fine. Just because you haven't doesn't mean nobody has, though. In fact, a lot of people have. You're lucky, and that's fine, but that doesn't change the fact that we, and many others, do not recommend installing codec packs (except for some fringe cases, noted below).



So What Should I Use

Luckily, most of the best video players out there—like the popular VLC or our personal favorite, PotPlayer—have their own self-contained sets of codecs, that won't conflict with anything on your system, nor do they require any kind of separate management or updating on your part. Generally, they'll play any video file you run into, and are by far the easiest way to get full video compatibility on your machine.
