I thought Windows 7 was supposed to have all the regular codecs included and codec packs weren't needed?

I'm not against installing codecs, but shouldn't this work the way MS says it should?

DivX still isn't supported as a regular codec.
If you don't like codecs, I would suggest you download and use VLC Player (VLC media player - Overview) as your video player.
It has all the codecs built in, and does a much better job of playback than any other player.

some divx files are encoded differently and may require additional codecs which you dont have. i normally just download and install the cccp and everything works flawlessly. you can try installing the vlc player if you dont want to install codecs.

I love to play divx avi, rmvb, mkv and HD wmv files..... so I installed CCCP and Real alternates Lite codec. Using KM Player to play without issues... even Windows Media Player can play rmvb files.
