I have my favorite that is updated regularly and has not failed me. Since your computer usually uses the one with the highest 'Merit', the others are just cluttering you computer UNTIL you deinstall some, in which case they become higher and are used again.Ĭodec packs in general are known to be bothersome because there are so many, good and bad, so be sure you download ones you have researched and checked reviews for. The biggest thing codec do is fill up your computer with multiple codecs used for the same format organized in a certain order. That is just a setting that I could change, but the fact is it DID change my audio setting. The latest was after installing a Creative sound card firmware update, I no longer had sound from my speakers with headset plugged in. This doesn't happen too often but, with the dozens of programs and utilities I've installed, it has happened mabybe 4-5 times. It's not the codecs so much as the fact they can alter certain computer settings to make the most use of their function. On the other hand, I HAVE had programs such as converters, muxers, editors and other programs that come with their own codecs mess up my sound. They may, and probably will, alter which ones are used for certain audio so some songs MAY not play any longer that used to be ok. They then need DEcompressed, hence the name COmpressor DECompressor. These videos or audios such as songs are compressed to save space as files and shorten downloads and upload times over networks. Generally codecs only change how sounds encoded in audio or audio/video files such as an AVI, mp4, mp2, mp3, flv, etc are decoded.
