K-Lite Codec Pack is a collection of DirectShow filters, VFW/ACM codecs and tools. Codecs and DirectShow filters are required for encoding and decoding audio and video formats. K-Lite Codec Pack is designed as an easy-to-use solution for playing all your audio and movie files. With the K-Lite Codec Pack, you should be able to play all the popular audio and video formats and even several less common formats.

Note: The basic version does NOT include a player.
You must use it with an already installed DirectShow player such as Windows Media Player. For playback issues with WMP, please read our FAQ for solutions.

We recommend using K-Lite Standard, which includes MPC-HC, which is a very good player.
