There are four different versions of the K-Lite Codec Pack. A range with a very small packet that consists of only the most important decoders in a large and complete packet. The general differences between the differences are listed below.e. Detailed options can be found in the overall capacity comparison and in comparison to the information pages.
These codec packs are interchangeable with Windows Vista / 7/8/8. 1/10. Old ones are also with XP.
Packages contain both 32-bit and 64-bit codecs, so they work great on both x86 and x64 Windows flavors!

Note. The basic version does NOT include a player. You mainly need Windows Media Player to do this You could use it with the DirectShow player currently installed. If you are having problems playing with WMP, please read our FAQ section to find a solution. We recommend that you use the standard k-lite containing MPC-HC, which is a relatively good player. | Load Database Content Changelog |
< td> Standard
Like Basic, plus: - Classic Home Theater Media Player (MPC-HC)
C is a great video player. Highly Recommended! Offers high quality reading and many useful options. - MediaInfo Lite
This is a tool that allows you to get detailed information about media files.
This is my recommended option for the average internet user. Use it when you don’t see what you need. It already has everything you need to play a video. The additional components that come with traffic updates in larger versions are definitely of no use to most users. | Load standard Content Changelog |
Full | Standard plus: - MadVR
highly skilled video renderer with high conversion algorithms. - Source of mod DC-Bass
For advertising the OptimFrog tracker and audio PC (very rare formats). - Plugin for understanding 3D video (H.264 MVC)
Note. This usually requires the use of MPC-HC with madVR and an often compatible graphics driver. Newer NVIDIA drivers no longer support 3D video clips (but you can try “Fix Manager in 3D”).

Mega | Full, plus: - GraphStudioNext
Tool for creating and testing DirectShow graphs … - Some ACM / VFW codecs are sorted as x264VFW and Lagarith.
This codec is a choice made by powerful video editing / encoding applications to work with AVI files. For example VirtualDub. These codecs are not used or absolutely necessary for video playback. Important note: the K-Lite codec pack does not increase the import capabilities of theprofessional video editors such as Vegas Movie Studio or Adobe Premiere. These applications most likely only support the import of small linked file formats and will certainly support the use of a type including the codecs contained in that particular codec pack (DirectShow / VFW). Modern publishers often only use their own internal codecs or support external codecs such as the Human Media Foundation.
And some additional redundant DirectShow filters: - ffdshow audio / video Provides filters for the processor to control all decoded audio and video data.
- ffdshow audio / video decoder – an alternative to the selected LAV audio / video decoder.
To - ac3filter is an alternative to LAV audio decoder.
