K-Lite Mega Codec Pack 4.5.3
At last, the line at the bottom of the screen while playing is fixed with this new 4.5.3 version. Thank you provider .. :)
K-Lite Mega Codec Pack 4.4.2
Great codec but some bug still are not fixed. Those .avi, .H264, and other file have some line at the bottom of the screen. I believe this only happen with this new version and the last previous version. Using the other player like media player, there's no weird line detected. Anyway, thanks for providing it for free. :)

Have been using for years. Great Package!!
I found a problem in the recent versions up to current with getting an error "Incorrect BASS.DLL version (2.3 is required)" when playing *.aac files only (playback is OK once you dismiss the error message).
The library for bass_flac.dll is version 2.3 and needs to be updated to 2.4 to work with aac files.

Rename : bassflac.dll to bass_flac.dll

K-Lite Mega Codec Pack 4.1.4
All versions since 3.95 have worked fine for me; in this version a problem with Media Player Classic - takes too long to start or doesn't start at all (with FLV or AVI files)

The included build of Media Player Classic is actually quite recent. It comes from another fork called 'Guliverkli2'. All security vulnerabilities that are listed at Secunia were already fixed long ago in both forks. So it is the Secunia tool that is outdated.
MPC-HC still has a few stability issues. Once those are fixed, I suspect that it will eventually be included in the codec pack.

I have found the K-Lite Mega Codec Pack to be useful and excellent - with one caveat.
It seems that the version of "Media Player Classic" included with the package is rather old. The Secunia PSI utility (Personal Software Inspector) flags it as obsolete and a security risk. There IS a simple fix, however. An MPC fork named "Media Player Classic-HomeCinema" can be substituted, works fine, and Secunia PSI is happy with it. The MPC-HC package is available via
The player included in K-Lite is "Media Player Classic" -- go ahead and install it, but then:
* Extract the second file "mplayerc_homecinema_x86_v1.1.604.0.zip" to a convenient location.
* Find and change to the "Media Player Classic" directory in the K-Lite install directory (default location is under "Program Files").
* Replace the "mplayerc.exe" file with the version from the extracted ZIP-file. This is most easily done using a dual-pane file manager; the one built in to "7-Zip" works fine.
* Done!

If full screen playback is not working that really is a driver problem (broken Overlay). Ask any expert.
An alternative solution is to change the video renderer in Media Player Classic options.
MPC Options -> Playback -> Output -> DirectShow video

Mega = Full + Real Alternative
@John Doro
If video fails to play in fullscreen, then that is caused by your graphics card drivers.
