Publisher's description

From JockerSoft :

Ever had a movie where you could hear only the sound but there were no video. Or only video and no sound. That's almost certainly a codec missing. CodecInstaller is here to help you understand which codec you need and to let you install it in minutes. CodecInstaller is a Windows program that detects the Audio and Video codecs installed on your system, analyzes files to understand which codecs they require and suggests you to install them. CodecInstaller can also be used to distribute video files on a CD, to be sure that who receives the CD will have all the necessary codecs installed with a single tool he will be able to check if the codecs are already installed and up-to-date.

This program can be used to analyze files it supports avi, mpeg, wmv, wma, ogg, flac, mpc, mp3, mp4, wav, wx and will show technical data such as width/height and ratio, length, video codec, framerate, size, bitrate, total frames, quality factor and metadata such as title, album, year (if available). Version 2.6.2 adds possibility to view and change filters mappings and priority.

Version: CodecInstaller 2.6.2

"Solves my problem!"

by taxiwasher on November 4, 2007

Pros: It really solve filters-related problems with my Vista! It is very informative in the sense that it analyzes file formats and status of codecs installed in your system.
Great job JockerSoft!

Cons: Author claims that it will send error reports to jockersoft.com website but can be stopped by unchecking the "Send error report" field. The problem is I have not found any field mentioned in the freeware program ! Maybe I'm wrong and might be integrated in it's update feature!
