Administrator DKT27 Posted June 24, 2012 Administrator Share Posted June 24, 2012 Daum have 64 bit version Km does not have any 64 bit version 64bit = lesser codecs and variety. In most of the things 64bit is better than 32bit, except M$ Office and media players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I do use the x64-bit iteration of Microsoft Office (due to extraordinary file size,) in so far as media players are concerned, the lack of 64-bit codecs support does neutralize the advantage. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I don't use a x64 system but I think I'll switch with Win8). There are many codecs out there that are not available on 64bit media players. Hence, most of the media players are still on 32bit and most of us 64bit OS users use the 32bit media player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReClock is not a codec, it's a DirectShow filter. Not the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcs18 Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 @ spootnackYou're right about the codec v/s filter part for ReClock - unfortunately, ReClock is not available in a x64-bit flavor. As for the codec part, I depend heavily on madVR which does not take kindly to the 64-bit iteration. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator DKT27 Posted June 24, 2012 Administrator Share Posted June 24, 2012 Which ones ? The bloated packs ? :lol: :lol: Jokes apart. K-Lite and other codec packs are big because they use the best codecs/filters for best media types, ffdshow or Lav aren't the best in everything. Every codecs (or packs of them), etc. have their merits and demerits. :) Like madVR, yes we can use some other renderer but madVR is said to be the best in what it does, better than others. But it might not be the best in all things, this is when K-Lite comes in. It always selects the codecs best for the media type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spootnack Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 @ RocketMan and DKT27 :Good to know that you use madVR. Great choice. B)@ DKT27 : Now, about K-Lite, I was kidding because I prefer the "manual" method, you install one-by-one what you need and you know what you use, why and how it works. It keeps "simple" and stable and if something doesn't work, it's easier to troubleshoot. It's personnal but I prefer this method. But I think that most of people use even not the half of the sofwares that a pack provides...Between K-Lite use great softwares like madVR and LAV Filters and I think it's one of the best codecs packs available with CCCP.
