K-Lite Codec v5.2.0 to v5.3.0 update?

Postby ant on Fri Nov 06, 2009 6:17 am

Hi!

Is it me or is there no v5.2.0 to v5.3.0 update? I tried to install v5.4.0 update, but it wanted v5.3.0. Do I have to install the full version? And why does v5.4.0 full version require me to uninstall v5.2.0? :(

Thank you in advance. :)

There is no update because there were major changes. You need to use the complete installer of 5.4.0.

Ah thanks.

Also, it seems like a lot of people have problems with the major changes? I might wait a bit. I might want to also dump RealAlternative and Codec Full package to install Mega pack. Do I understand Mega doesn't have QuickTime Alternate/Lite stuff?

Only two problems have been reported for 5.4.0:
1) AC3Filter does not register if some Microsoft runtimes are missing.
2) Some obscure error when running the installation. I suspect a damaged download, so not yet a confirmed bug.

Both will be fixed in next version, which will become available probably after the weekend.

Mega does not include any QuickTime stuff.

Thanks. I will wait. I just don't want to deal with broken stuff if I do uninstall and install the latest Mega Pack version with these major changes. I will probably do it during the long Thanksgiving weekend or something. You should had called it v6. ;)
