The majority of modern media players available to the public bundle built-in codecs in order to avoid any file format compatibility issues that might occur.

However, there are media formats that cannot be opened with a standard player and need a dedicated one, since they require more advanced filters or components to be installed first.

There are various codec packs that are capable of solving this issue, offering you the possibility to listen to music or play videos, regardless of the format they come packaged in.

AAC directshow filter is just one example of such a component, providing a lightweight codec package that aims to help you play video and audio content using any of the media players that are compliant with the the DirectShow multimedia framework created by Microsoft.

It can be used with Windows Media Player, BS.Player and various other popular similar applications.

Based on the FAAD2 MPEG-4 and MPEG-2 AAC decoder, this pack bundles multiple components that are designed to work together in order to allow the playback of various multimedia file types. It behaves just like a multichannel AAC decoder filter, providing support for digital radio standards such as DAB+.

The installation procedure is just a matter of a few clicks, not requiring much effort from the user's part and consuming a significantly shorter amount of time.

The only actions you must perform are to extract the archive files that are packed in and run the 'register_release.bat' file. No list of components to choose from is available. This procedure loads the 'CoreAAC.ax' module into the system registry.

The uninstallation process is just as easy and basically implies the same procedures, except that you must launch the 'unregister_release.bat' file.

AAC directshow filter is intended to allow the playback of AAC files on your computer using a DirectShow-based player. Nevertheless, if you need a filter pack that can process multiple file types, you might want to search for a more extended package.
