With the K-Lite Codec Pack you should be able to play all the popular audio and video formats and even several less common formats.

The K-Lite Codec Pack has a couple of major advantages compared to other codec packs: It is updated frequently. So it is always up-to-date with the newest and/or best components. All components have been carefully selected for specific purposes. It is not just a random bunch of stuff thrown together.
It is very user-friendly and easy to use. Works great with Windows Media Player and Windows Media Center. But also with all other DirectShow players, such as Media Player Classic, BS.Player, ZoomPlayer, and others.

The pack has many options, which allows you to tweak it to your own specific needs and preferences. Uninstallation removes everything that was installed by the pack. Including all registry keys.

It is extremely easy to make a fully customized unattended installation with the integrated wizard. It does not contain any codecs or filters that are known to be bad, buggy or unstable. In fact, the installer is able to detect and disable several known troublemakers. It tries to avoid potential conflicts with other codecs installed on your computer.

The installer is able to detect broken codecs and filters on your system, and helps you to remove them. It is a very complete package, containing everything you need to play your movies.
