Which is a codec. I quoted my response for you.


Anyway, it's not a codec pack which is what you said it was,



it's a single codec that can encode/decode various formats.

Format Factory is a front end that installs it's own codecs for encoding/decoding. My point is they suck. Again, uninstall ffdshow tryouts and try Format Factory using the default codecs it installs with the program.

Why did install ffdshow tryouts in the first place?

When did I say it is a codec pack? Since my first message I said it isn't a codec pack:

You are wrong here. ffdshow isn't a codec pack. See an analytical explanation here ==> http://www.vistax64.com/660465-post6.html and of course you can google it for additional info.

VLC uses libavcodec to play several video and audio formats and SUPER is just the front-end for other third party back-end encoders which are installed along with it. Of course without any coding or decoding code there isn't a magical way to re-encode video/audio or just play it.

Anyway... I installed because once you do you'll never have any problems with encoding or decoding or playing any file. You do it and 99% of the times you are ready to go.
