RE: Codecs usable by Media Center |
|
|
Hi, I have asked this before, search for my post titled "K-lite Codec pack
with MCE 2005".
Basically, what I have learned from the experienced folks here was to only
install the ffdshow codec. I did that and all of my divx, avi, and mpeg
files worked great. I've recently added the xvid codec (keopi's release)
along with an AC3 audio codec, and now Xvid extensions play as well,
flawlessly.
The bottom line is to NOT install codec packs that throw every codec know to
humans onto your system, which from what I have learned here and researched
elsewhere, will make MCE2005 very upset.
Hope that helps :)

The strange thing is that for some of the files, the preview appears when I
browse to Videos and select the appropriate folder. Is there something
wrong with my installation or are there specific encodings that are
supported and others that are not?
