I can't help you with a codec for WMP, but my suggestion is to use VLC Media Player:<br />
<a href="http://www.videolan.org/vlc/" rel="ugc">http://www.videolan.org/vlc/</a><br />
<br />
It is open source and free, and is the #1 downloaded software at <a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/vlc/" rel="ugc">SourceForge</a> (more than 7 million downloads per week). It has the codecs built in, so it will play most video formats without needing to add codecs. I have never found a piece of media that it couldn't play. Unless you're totally wedded to WMP, I think you'll really like VLC. Regards, Joe

I am using Windows Media Player version 9 (XP Pro). &nbsp; I want to be able to play .avi and .mp4 files on Windows Media Player. I had the codec before but can't remember the name, I think it started with the letter K. &nbsp;Can someone send me the proper link for this if you know, I would prefer to use this on WMP. &nbsp; I downloaded another codec from CNET and installed a bunch of garbage apps and the codec didn't work. &nbsp;Thanks.

Multimedia applications are those programs that integrate more than one media at a time; browsers are the most obvious. However, the term has come to include the use of programs that enable the use of any component that isn’t simple text and static graphics, such as audio, video, animation, virtual reality, conferencing and monitoring.

MultiMedia Applications

Software is any set of instructions that directs a computer to perform specific tasks or operations. Computer software consists of programs, libraries and related non-executable data (such as documentation). Computer software is non-tangible, contrasted with computer hardware, which is the physical component of computers. Software written in a machine language is known as "machine code". However, in practice, software is usually written in high-level programming languages than machine language. High-level languages are translated into machine language using a compiler or interpreter or a combination of the two.

Software

Microsoft Windows XP is the sixth release of the NT series of operating systems, and was the first to be marketed in a variety of editions: XP Home and XP Professional, designed for business and power users. The advanced features in XP Professional are generally disabled in Home Edition, but are there and can be activated. There were two 64-bit editions, an embedded edition and a tablet edition.
