Hello everyone How are you all ? I want to know something about codecs. For example I'm using real player and this is because to watch online videso,online songs or play rm,ram file formats. Is this possible to play this without real player ? Any alternative way ?

Yeah, you can use VLC media player. Google VLC and download it from the VideoLAN site.

Well It's certainly a good choice. It supports a wide variety of formats and video codecs. Failing that, you could always download the combined community codec pack in addition to VLC, then you're pretty much covered.

I know. I was use Vista Codec pack before. Its sucks . After finding a good rating in softpedia I download this one. So I'm its big fan after that day. Now no worries . My system played everything for me. No matter its in 3GP format or any flash format.

I agree with him. VLC is a very good choice. If you don't like it, use divx. There the best for watching movies. clips or mini videos, i use vlc.

Yes I know that. Thats why i recommend K-lite Because inside K-lite you also get a free codec of DivX but not online player. You have to manually install it later

Honestly, VLC is at the top of its game, I've been using it for quite some time. It can play mostly anthing you can find, and if it cant play it. You can download most of the missing codecs you may need. As for REAL PLAYER files, you will need an extenstion called real alternative, which will give VLC the ablility to play those types of files.

there is a program for vlc called quicktime alternative, which allows you to play mac quicktime files as well. VLC also plays flv... and wmv as well.
