Vista Codec Package

Originally published Last updated

Last year, I downloaded and installed the Vista Codec Package. A couple of minutes ago, I tried to open an Xvid screencast in Windows Media Player, but it could not acquire the codec. The Vista Codec Package includes popular codec components such as Xvid, DivX and AC3 that are missing from a default Vista installation.
