Vista Codec Pack - 32bit & 64bit Media Player Codecs

[Drubei]

Is There Any Update Patch For 4.70 To 4.71 Cause I Will Have To Download Full File, And It Will Better If They Offer Automatic Update. That Will Be Cool....

On their website it is recommend that you UNINSTALL the previous version before installing this new one. But it's no necessary. So in term you can just install this over your previous version and your settings should stay the same. Though I can't confirm this as I follow the recommended procedure and did a fresh install.

Good Luck!

I use Vista Ultimate x64, do I need to download and install 32bits and 64bits codec or just de 64bits?
Does this codec play mkv, avi and other formats on media player and media center?
Subtitles are ok?
Thanks.

 

[johngalt]

You need both the 32bit and the 64bit - install the 32bit first.

 

[ThÉoPatrizi]

Thanks a lot man!
