How To Reinstall Default Codecs ?
Feb 12, 2010
Recently, well the other day I decided I would re-install Oblivion and after re-install something went haywire and now music will not play in Oblivion. Well, it might, but if I leave music on it will freeze my mouse and keyboard 5 minutes into loading a game each and every time, leading the game to be unplayable. A little background in case you were wondering why I would want to reset Win7 codecs.
Well, I have looked all over google and have not seen any way to un-install all codecs and re-install default codecs that were installed with windows 7. This is all i'm trying to do.
P.S. - if WMP12 is uninstalled, would that remove the codecs with it? and would re-installing WMP12 add the codecs back, or do the codecs come with the Windows 7 install itself.

When uninstalling (completely uninstalling mind you) Winamp, I took all the video codecs with it too (.avi .mpg and others). I'm currently using WMP 12. Any trusted and Microsoft approved link to reinstall these codecs?

I'm getting pretty good at reinstalling Windows 7 (Clean) - However I do have a question: What is the best way to set myself up as the Administrator so I don't constantly have to work around those pesky "You need administrator privileges to do xxx". I would think that even with setting my default user account as an Administrator, there would be a way to really be an Administrator.

I can imagine there are litterly hundred of people asking this same question. So today I ask you Video Gurus to tell me and us.
What is the best route to go when installing a new PC window 7 Codecs, Which can mess up your PC but give you precision control over image quality.
Or VLC which has all the codecs built into it that will allow you to play any video format you need right out of the box?
Im always wondering and Ive used both myself However I'm working on the "perfect" build and I do not want to install un-needed or troublesome applications.
I love the VLC ease of use, however I hate the player. No matter what I watch when I jump ahead I get tons of pixelations for 10-15 seconds afterwards.
Im not a dig deep into the guts guy either so installing Codecs and having to config every aspect of these when I have no idea what all the setting really means isn't fun either.
So lets hear what the "pros" here have to say on this question! If There is another application besides VLC please feel free to add it to the discussion.

I use to have K-lite Mega Codec Pack installed in my other laptop (Win Vista x86), and watched everything on Media Player Classic, but some files weren't syncronized with subtitles so i opened with BSPlayer to sync them manually.
Now in this laptop i went to search for K-lite for 64-bit OS, and i got these: but when install finished it had no MPC and it seemed to me to have less codecs.
I'm in a Multimedia Degree and i use Adobe Premiere CS3/4 (still dont know what to install but probably the new one). Also i've read here some problems Launching the game Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion, could be due to the lack of codecs.
So i think you get all i need
Codecs for Windows 7 x64 with MPC and able to work along with BSPlayer and Adobe Premiere CS3/4 and Quicktime Pro btw, and also that might help with games.
Btw, i can't tell what Build is my version of Windows 7, i just can say it's Windows 7 Home Premium (can you tell me how to know the build?).

I'm having some trouble with media center, and actually also other video players..
I've been trying for some time to get media center running, but I keep having trouble with the codecs.
I'm running win 7 build 7100. First I installed ffdshow and used the MCDU to get media center to use ffdshow, and it worked. But then suddenly out of nothing about a week ago it didn't work anymore. When I tried to play a video-file I got the decoder error from media center telling me th-at the codec isn't working or isn't installed. It's all types of video files, avi, video_TS and so on. I then tried to uninstall ffdshow and install it again, but it didn't help. I then tried to uninstall again and install a different codec-pack. Didn't help. I have tried to install many different codec-packs but nothing helps.
Then I tried to play the video files using other media players. When playing video files in VLC the picture is kind of pixellated, doesn't look good at all (it's like watching the picture of Ripley's daughter as an old woman in Aliens if you remember).
I can't find a solution to this problem as I don't know what is wrong.

I am trying to view videos that used to work perfectly fine when I had Vista but now they don't seem to play anymore. I tried, K-Lite, Shark007, and VLC Player but none of them seem to be able to play the video. I tried installing the "official" xvid codec since that's what I assumed the format is due to it's filename (it's a video I downloaded). I am using Windows 7 Professional 64-bit. Also how would I make sure what format my videos are?

I've noticed that some video files I play don't have sound when playing through Windows Media Player, and some do. Even though they appear to be the exact same file, .avi, with all the same settings.
Just wondering if anyone had a similar issue to this, and if they had found a fix or the proper codecs to download.

I am having trouble on a couple of PCs, in that the playback on most players (VLC, Media Player Classic, WMC) is jittery in some cases and fails in others.The jitter occurs when I go from a 108050p source to any sized output but at 25fps (i or p) output. The difference between a smooth play and a jittery play is that if you freeze, the smooth play is blurred, twice as much as it was at 50p, as if some sort of interpolation was being done, while the jittery play when frozen presents a still screen with several distinct ghosts of any moving bit. This is what leads to the flickery appearance.I was told that this was an interlace problem, but I thought interlacing caused horizontal lines on the screen, not ghosting.
I have edited / rendered video in various programmes. I have used AVS4U, Vegas, Adobe Elements and several others. The results are the same.I have tried many formats and codecs, as well as trying interlaced, Upper and Lower FF, as well as Progressive.However, at present, WMPlayer is playing stuff nice and smoothly for me, while none of the others are. All are jittery.In addition to this, WMC refuses to display vob files at all. IT just shows a blank screen, with sound, but only the progress bar at the bottom, ticking off the seconds, with no actual video at all.WMPlayer seems to be the one player that does not allow manipulation of codecs, and it just seems to be working....now.how do I choose what codecs are used by a player to play a file, or how does it choose?

I'm using Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 x86 with K-Lite 9.5 installed. VirtualDub 1.9.11 isn't getting access to the codecs except for Cinepak, etc.I should be using Avidemux anyway, but I can't figure out how to make desperately needed templates and last time I tried to encode a video in h264 it looks a lot worse then it's supposed to for some reason.

My issue is that i would like to be able to have media center audio play only through my tv and not through my pc main speaker system, tv is hooked through hdmi output on graphics card, speaker system through 5.1 output on motherboard. I have tried the audiorenderupdater extender but all that does is set default audio out for entire system, so when itunes is used or game is played on computer audio goes through tv. I would like all system noises, media player, and game audio to run through pc speakers and simultaneously all media center audio (recorded/live tv) to go through tv audio, so i can watch sports center while playing mass effect and have audio from sportscenter on tv audio from mass effect on pc speakers.
Also is there a way to separate media player's actions from media center's. For example if you are laying music in media player and then open media center and play a tv show, music playback stops, not a big deal just like media player better than itunes and would like to be able to watch tv in media center while playing music in media player rather than itunes

I removed Internet Explorer 9 after having some problems with it here on this 64 bit machine. Now Firefox has upgraded to version 5 and is no longer compatible with my Dishnetwork Slingplayer. This means I can't watch my Dish programming on the road.
Anyway if I try to reload IE9 it says it can't install because a newer version is already loaded. It does not appear on the program list under "add or remove programs"!

I have the google search engine redirect virus and am crossing my fingers that a solution can be found as i posted the appropriate logs inteh appropriate forum. However, based on the results from other members with the same problem, I am not too confident. So I guess my next option is to reinstall my Windows 7 pro, but i don't have the recovery disk ( I have a pavilion dv8 Hewlett packard). So do i go to the store and buy Windows 7 and reinstall it? One of my drives is called recovery, but i don't know what is in it. there is a folder called recovery, but when I click it, it gives me a warning that my partitions will be formatted. no files.

I just spent the last half day fixing a laptop, had to buy a new hard drive and reinstall the OS from recovery discs. (Win 7 64 bit, on Satellite Toshiba) I just noticed that I did not install it with a partition for the OS, Is this going to be a big problem at some point? I had checked off "Factory Settings" when installing, I just assumed that it would have installed with a partition. Before I go any further with this laptop I would like to have some input please. I just spent the last 3 hours installing updates and finally SP1.

My computer was blue screening, freezing, locking up, etc so I took it to a repair shop and to make sure all the hardware was ok. All the tests passed but the problems were still continuing. They eventually decided to reinstall my OS which is Windows 7 and everything's been working fine except my computer is a lot slower and frequently feels laggy where they mouse would freeze up for a few seconds or move slowly across the screen. I have already tried cleaning out my registry with CCleaner and tried defragmenting but to no avail. I was wondering if there is another way to solve my computer lag problem.
