[QUOTE="Lehmden, post: 757085, member: 109222"] [b]AW: Why does the user have to bother with codecs?[/b] Hello. The ability to choose witch codec to use is one of the most important things on MePo. The Windows DirectShow System ís a lot more flexible and configurable than VLC. If you get a file VLC can't play, you are a looser. I have some files VLC did not play at all. With MePo you can install another Codec to play this file. Most of my HD- MKV are really ugly played in VLC. And, my AVR is a bit older. he can't play DTS-HD. With free codec choice I can use a Codec able to extract core DTS from DTS-HD Streams and all is well. With VLC I don't have DTS with this files... And, you can have nearly the same in MePo if you use FFDShow, witch is basically the same Codec than VLC. [/QUOTE]
