Video Files Support

Last updated - 2012 Year

Reading this post will take you less then 10 minutes but will help you with the problems that may occur while you try to open your favourite farting movie.

This post contains all video players and decoders for your PC to be able to watch 95% of video clips you see on the internet ON WINDOWS OPERATING SYSTEMS.

Rest of 5% are non standard videos or videos in special formats.
I will not give any support for those 5%.

Note that this text is only friendly suggestion.

1.PLAYERS

Best to use - recommended & must have


+1. BS Player

Use BS Player everyday because it has one of the easiest interfaces, and opens almost all kinds of video formats. It's also recommended for all users especially to those with slow and old PC's
(CPu speed under 1,2 GHZ ),

Player will auto-install all required codecs for program so you can also watch divx movies.
It has best support ever for subtitles.

file types for this player: *wmv, *mpeg, *mpg, *avi, *asf *divx , *dat, *m2v *mp4 and other

+2. VLC Player

Install this player as a "sister player" on the system.
In case you will have bitrate problem with the video, this might be alternate solution for you.
It has also streaming options supported.

Additional recommended players

+1.Windows Media Player 10 or 9, or built in version

The most stable, built-in media player ever made for windows operating system.

I don't recommend running Windows media player 11 on XP.11 is nice, but it's slow,and very heavy.
So - choose between 9 or 10.
On windows vista and windows7 use the version that you already have installed.

You can also watch 80% of clips with this player, but it's not so fast like recommended ones .

file types for this player: *wmv, *mpeg, *mpg, *avi, *asf and other

+2. Quick Time Player

Quick time player was released with a bunch of spams in it until 2007 year.
Finally they Launched Quick Time Player 7 with minimum of spams and also very stable.
It is Necesarry sometimes, because it comes with some important browsers plugins required on some webpages.
example (3gp streams, webcams....)

but you will survive without it

file types for this player: *mov *mpg *mpeg *3gp *mp4 and other

+ 3. Real Player

For Real Media Streaming, it brings few browser plugins.
Try to get proffesional edition which also comes with download video plugin.
file types for this player: *rm *ram *amr *flv and other

That's all you need from players.

2.VIDEO AND AUDIO DECODERS


You need video and audio decoders too for watching MPEG 2 and DVD videos ON operating systems under Windows vista, like on windows xp.

On windows vista and Windows7 you already have mpeg2 decoder installed in windows media center!

Recommended For windows Xp users and advanced users

It's hard to find mpeg codecs separately, ussualy they come with applications such as DVD players.

if you have optimal or strong PC , at least 1200 mhz PENTIUM3, download and install Cyberlink Power DVD7 or newer

cyberlink = full picture quality + use more CPU resources.

http://www.gassyerotica.net/forum/si.../cyberlink.gif


With power dvd , you get High-Definition (HD) decoder, and Mpeg2 audio and video decoders.

Pure Nvidia Decoder is also suggested MPEG2 decoder.
Visit Nvidia Pure Video here:

For slower Pc's , there is solution with Elecard video decoder , but also picture quality is lower, and not good deinterlaced.

Installing big codec packs is not recommended.

can't seem to download the flvplayer because the errors says the file is corrupted or damaged ,but it said i could overwrite it by command promt

it works for me.

try to get flv player from the author's site:

http://www.martijndevisser.com/blog/flv-player

There are a lot of .rar files on the forum. what supports that?

you need to get winrar

http://www.download.com/3000-2250-10007677.html

good luck and i hope that helps you. (rar files are like zip files, it's just a type of compression.)

Personally I use a codec pack, I have for years long before I read this post. The problem with codec packs is they have a shit-ton of settings and if improperly configured could cause more problems then they fix. You need to understand all the codec mumbo jumbo to install it otherwise it could leave you with conflicting codecs, not a good thing. Lucky for me I undertsand it enough to get it setup without a hitch.

I use k-lite codec pack, it works pretty handy to allow wmp to play nearly any type of video files. I use it and for example, I can play flv files in wmp as well as many other types, without needing multiple players. I love it, but not everyone wants to install codec packs to there computer, do to what I said above.....high possibility of errors.

I won't provide any links because as Gassy said codec packs are not reccomended, they work but you gotta be careful.

Signed.

Why to install something you will not use?!

It's just waisting your resources for nothing!

Real nightmare is when you try and convert videos. A lot of video converters crashes at startup.

AVS Video converter ftw.. I have not seen one I did not covert yet...

And VLC player in case you cant even read weird files...

avs is what I use as well, and vlc player is great too because it can even play files that get corrupted, say if your download breaks at 90% it will play the 90% that is there not display it as as unplayable, not that that is a common problem but hey.

And as for not using the codec pack, i use it a lot, I can convert nearly any video to any video with avs without fail. ffdshow is awesome as a decrypter and can also play subtitle files on a video (such as a movie avi or w/e).

BUT!!!! The installation as i said is tricky, you are right Gassy, about it using up unnescesary resources and not being used, but that's if you install it as a whole. What I did was only install the parts i needed, did that years ago and haven't regreted it yet. Getting all those players is a good idea, and not installing a over-the-top codec pack is a good point, i'm not arguing any of that.

thanks for your supports

You should add Potplayer to that list. Best media player available.
