In the past 10 years I have downloaded cool movies/videos or songs/audio files and have been very excited to view/hear the content. Each time when the download was complete I opened up the media file and was very disappointed that my computer could not recognize the new, foreign media format.
[adblockingdetector id=”2″]The above scenario has happened to me many times. In each instance I was thinking, “Oh great, yet another new f*cken format I can’t play on my computer!” With the dawn of the video recording capable cell phones came another incompatibility problem. Friends would email me videos via their cell phones and I could not see them on my computer which pissed me off even more.
I have found a solution to all the media incompatibility problems we have on our Windows computers. You only need to download and install the VideoLAN media player and the Combined Community Codec Pack. Both are free and they will work on Windows XP and Vista. Here is just a SHORT list of the media file types you will be able to play after you have followed the video tutorial below… .mpeg-1, .mpeg-2, .mp3, .mp4, .divx, xvid, , 3ixv, H4, H.261, H.263, H.264, .wmv, .wma, .ogg, .ogv, .ogm, Real video, Real audio, QuickTime, AC3, DTS, FLAC, ALAC, ATRAC 3, .ape, .3gp, MIDI, .mkv, .avi, .flv, .ts, VP6F, AAC, .vob
