Weirdy Posted March 4, 2004 Posted March 4, 2004 Ffdshow is a really good codec, but I think mp4 and ac3 beat it at compression ration and quality from the compression. Xvid is coming up too, but it will be a while before it achieves true greatness... Anyway, this is a dicussion on media players, not codecs... which if you need to play any type of codec, use Media Player Classic! (I shoot myself in head for HORRIBLE shameless plug) Anon.different videos need different codecs, not so much a different media player. Actually, for mp4, the best thing is coreaac codec, ac3 is good, but buggy and annoying
Fatal Rose Posted March 4, 2004 Author Posted March 4, 2004 Fatal Rose check your PM sorry i forgot to pay attention to it. thanks forcex.

floopy Posted March 5, 2004 Posted March 5, 2004 Actually, if you want a player that will play ANYTHING, you need vlc media player. It is completely free. It has all the codecs you need built-in. So, if you come across a file that you don't have the codec for, the vlc player will most likely have it. Not only that, but if you've ever downloaded movies from the newsgroups, most of the newer movies are bin/cue files. Usually you would have to mount the image with daemon tools, extract it with isobuster, or burn it to disc to watch it. But with the vlc player, you can view the bin file directly. It's a cool little feature that media player classic doesn't have. It plays incomplete files, and just about everything you can imagine. Check it out! http://www.videolan.org/vlc/
