Matroska Pack Full v1.1.2
The famous full pack will not only allow
playing matroska media
files (.mkv and .mka), but it will also allow playback of most modern video
formats on any DirectShow player, even with WMP 6.4/7/8/9 (Windows Mediaplayer).
For this reason the Matroska Pack Full has gathered some
attention from the video compression scene, and has established itself as a very
slim and intelligent alternative to the usually overloaded codec packs out
there. Most of the hard work is being done by the great ffdshow decoder
Filter based on FFMPEG and enabling playback of
- DivX 3/4/5
- XviD
- WMV7/8
- H.264 (MPEG4 AVC)
but the pack also adds
playback support for
- Vorbisusing FFDShow (for Ogg Vorbis
audio files, install also the Ogg
Splitter from Tobias Waldvogel)
- AAC and AAC+SBR (HE-AAC) audio, using FFDShow
- AC3 audio, using FFDShow
- FLAClossless audio, using CoreFLAC
- Wavpackanother lossless audio codec
supporting hybrid mode (with + without loss)
- TTAanother lossless audio codec
- Subtitles, using vsfilter (DVobSub)
Matroskafiles with
RealVideo & RealAudio inside will not render correctly (no image/sound)
if you don't have RealPlayer or the Real Alternative
codec installed
Extra features (need to be activated during the installation
process) are
- The matroska shell
extension (MatroskaProp 2.8), to enable checking matroska files from Explorer
Matroska Pack Lite v1.1.2
Reduced to the max, this pack contains only the very
basic stuff needed to play matroska files with
Vorbis audio and Subtitles on DirectShow players, so in order to be able to play
all your files you need the right video and audio decoders installed already.
Also coming with it is the matroska muxer filter,
allowing you to create matroska files from
DirectShow based muxing and capturing applications, such as ATV2000 or VirtualVCR_matroska. |
