"Works perfectly and IS FREE"
Version: Media Player Codec Pack 4.2.2
Pros
Options for DXVA and the option to set audio output during install in this version are a huge improvement.
Cons
The previous reviewer has given a review for the wrong product. This pack is free, with no nagging to buy or donate.
Summary
The pack is really easy to install compared with others. There is an easy install option where the codec settings and file associations are pre-set. There is also a detailed install option with options to select or unselect codecs and file associations, then, after install options are shown for DXVA as previously mentioned and audio output.
The pack scanned as clean in NOD32 and there was no warning or alert from smart filter. -
