When online you will encounter video which have been encoded using a variety of codecs. If you frequently watch different types of video you will generally have to have numerous different programs installed, each catering for different types of video - this can be an annoyance when you encounter a video for which you do not already have the required program or codec. Rather than waiting until the last minute, install the K-Lite Mega Codec Pack which includes a wide range of popular codecs for a number of different video formats.

As well as well known formats such as XviD, MPEG2 and DivX, the pack also includes audio codecs and a selection of alternative media players. Used in conjunction with each other, it is unlikely that you will encounter a video you are unable to play, and by using the alternative tools - such as Real Alternative - you can benefit from improved p3rformance.

The codecs included in the pack can also be used when encoding your own videos and there are a number of handy tools which may well come in useful - such as a bitrate calculator, subtitling tool, video splitters and much more. The pack includes such a large number of tools and codecs, there is simply not space to cover them all in any details. Thankfully, it is not necessary to install all of the codecs at once if you do not need to - you can pick and choose the ones you need, adding others at a later date if necessary. There are a limited number of software installations that can be described as being essential, but this is one of them.

There are four different variants of the K-Lite Codec Pack. Ranging from a very small bundle that contains only the most essential decoders to a large and more comprehensive bundle. The global differences between the variants can be found below. Detailed differences can be found on the comparison of abilities and comparison of contents pages.

Codec Pack For Mac

Basic	Small but extremely powerful! Already contains everything you need to play all common audio and video file formats. Supports playback of: AVI, MKV, MP4, FLV, MPEG, MOV, TS, M2TS, WMV, RM, RMVB, OGM, WebM MP3, FLAC, M4A, AAC, OGG, 3GP, AMR, APE, MKA, Opus, Wavpack, Musepack DVD and Blu-ray (after decryption) and many more audio and video formats! Provides lots of useful functionality, such as: Subtitle display Hardware accelerated video decoding Audio bitstreaming Video thumbnails in Explorer File association options Broken codec detection and much more! Basic does NOT include a player. So you need to use it together with a DirectShow compatible player such as Windows Media Player. For playback issues with WMP please read our F.A.Q. for solutions. We recommend using K-Lite Standard, which included MPC-HC as a player.
Standard	Same as Basic, plus: Media Player Classic Home Cinema (MPC-HC) This is an excellent player. Highly recommended! It provides high quality playback and many useful options. MadVR An advanced video renderer with high quality upscaling. MediaInfo Lite This is a tool for getting details about media files. This is the recommended variant for the average user. Use this if you don't know what you need. It already contains everything that you need for playback. The extra components that are included in the larger versions provide no benefit for the majority of users.
Full	Same as Standard, plus: DC-Bass Source Mod For decoding OptimFrog and Tracker audio files (very rare formats). GraphStudioNext A tool for creating and testing DirectShow graphs. Plugin for 3D video decoding (H.264 MVC) Note: this requires using MPC-HC with madVR, and also a compatible graphics driver. Recent NVIDIA drivers no longer support 3D video (but you could try '3D Fix Manager').
Mega	Same as Full, plus: A few ACM/VFW codecs such as x264VFW This type of codec is used by certain video editing/encoding applications for working with AVI files. These codecs are not used or needed for normal playback. The codec pack does not magically expand the import abilities of professional editors such as Vegas or Premiere. Those applications usually (only) use their own internal codecs and only support import of specific file formats. And a few optional extras: ffdshow audio/video decoder An alternative choice for LAV Audio/Video decoder. ffdshow audio/video processor This is not something that regular users need. AC3Filter An alternative choice for LAV Audio decoder. Haali Media Splitter An alternative choice for LAV Splitter. Haali Matroska Muxer Note 1: Mega does not allow you to play more formats than Full. Note 2: The optional extras are not installed unless you explicitly select them. Note 3: We highly recommend to use the default LAV decoder and splitter. The alternative choices should not be used unless you have a good reason.
Update	Additional updates for the latest version of the codec pack. This is not a stand-alone installer. This update requires that the latest version of Basic/Standard/Full/Mega is already installed.	Download Update
Beta	Beta versions contain the latest updates and improvements, but they may have small bugs, and have not been tested as well as normal releases. Only suitable for experienced users who like to try out the latest stuff and want to provide feedback. Beta versions are available for Basic/Standard/Full/Mega.
Old versions	Are you looking for an older version? Those can be found here. If the latest version give you a problem, then please report that to us so we can fix it!	Download Mega (old versions) Download Basic / Standard / Full (old versions)
