Audio and Video playback problems can often be caused by NOT having the correct codec installed on your computer, or even the wrong version installed.
Do you know what codec is being used to play back the movie on your computer screen?
For the average home user finding this information was very difficult - UNTIL now that is!
Sherlock is the codec detective that will let you know what your codec-related problems are. Both video and audio codecs.
Here are some key features of "Sherlock":
· Determine the codecs installed on a Windows XP computer
· Check to see if any of the codec's were "BROKEN" (will be highlighted in RED....)
· Export the data to a text file for technical support
· fast running on a PC and not requiring installing
· small enough for download by modem
What's New in This Release: [ read full changelog ]
· Getting the real driver behind ACM/VCM codecs rather than using the "wrappers" quartz.dll and qcap.dll.
· Option to print a formatted report direct from the utility.
· Display the relevant FourCC code for each codec in addition to codec info already provided.
· Identifying broken codecs and displaying that information.
· Provide a "Please Wait..." window whilst scanning system.
