A codec pack that doesn’t bloat Windows
X Codec Pack is a lightweight, easy to install codec pack for Windows PCs running 2000 and up.
Codec packs have a bad reputation because they often bloat your PC with a million codecs you don’t need, along with the ones you do. X Codec Pack avoids this by only installing the most popular – XviD, FFDShow, AC3 filter, VSFilter, MediaInfo, Media Player Classic HC – which, in all likelihood will be the ones you need.
