AVIcodec is a handy tool to detect the audio and video codecs installed on your operating system.
If you ever encountered a movie that you couldn’t view correctly, a song that sounded choppy or a multimedia file that you couldn’t hear at all, probably your system doesn’t have the libraries required for an optimal execution of such multimedia files.
AVIcodec simply notifies you what libraries you have. By simply dragging and dropping a file on the program’s main menu you can know under what support your multimedia contents has been managed.
Finally, remember that AVIcodec is only a diagnostic tool and not a package of video and audio codecs.
