because I earned the right to be a arrogant bastard and i also happen to be right
1) For the love of God, either make a complete sentence, or stop writing.
2) You have an
opinion, that is one possible answer to the problem, but does not actually answer the OPs question. You are therefore not right. This is simple logic.
3) You don't earn the right to be an arrogant bastard by giving out opinions you trumpet as facts, and showing that you are incapable of intellectual maturity beyond "because I said so."
4) Mussels has it right...
well since your using win7 it should be working fine or just download the specific codec you needed seeing as you have a working net.
well imo if someone doesn't have a great English grammar it wouldn't even matter (since I have bad grammar my self) since he or she won't even get rich typing in perfect grammar.
Some people would actually smack you for having bad grammar well it's their choice and for the one being dissed well just ignore it and both are happy ^_^.
Poor grammar, or occasional typos are a common occurrence. Those red lines that show up while typing are there for a reason.
If you're ESL, then I respect that you can get your ideas across. Look at some of the posts I answer. 100% respect for those that don't speak English natively, because they are trying. Those that speak English, but choose to butcher it, need to have a reprimand. Just because this is the internet doesn't mean you can forego proper communication.
No, they certainly aren't a necessity. As I said, if you need a codec, install the individual codec, you don't need to install a shitton of them just to play one format.
I play both just fine without install any codec pack, I just install a single codec for each, simple.
28.8 MB. That is the size of my CCCP folder at the moment. Individual codecs often generate their own installers, and do enough monkeying with settings to make finding out why something isn't working more of a perverse scavenger hunt rather than a clean problem.
I don't know what you have against codec packs, but for most people they make sense. Download one thing once, then all of those files just play. I'll take a "shitton" of codecs that make everything just work, rather than having to install a new codec for every new file type (not to mention the ensuing clutter), everyday of the week. If you are willing to deal with that crap (not to mention finding a source, installation, and configuration for playback) then you are more patient than I am...
