Codec for Windows xp to allow WMP to play.MP4

[jtidd]

We have just come across a problem in that our windows xp machines will not allow the playing of .MP4's in windows media Player.

 

Can someone recommend a codec in MSI format that works please?

 

Thanks in advance

That link is ok but i was hoping someone knew of a codec that works that is already in MSI format

The only mpeg decoder that I can find in .MSI is this one:

 

Webpage:

Download:

Download GPL MPEG-1/2 DirectShow Decoder Filter from SourceForge.net

 

Personally, I'd be inclined to wrap K-Lite to an MSI, or use the silent installer (Silent install guide for K-Lite Codec Pack) if possible, as you'll find the performance far exceeds that of the decoder above.

+1 for the K-Lite pack with silent installer, thats what we install on all machines
