I've been trying to decide which codec pack I should get. I know there's the K-Lite Codec pack and the Tsunami filter pack.

I don't know if there are any other picks out, or which one is the best one to get overall.

Can anyone provide some help?

i've always used Koepi's codec packs in the past, because they were highly recommended on some of the boards i was on. A quick google search turned up this pack, which seems to have everything (minus ffshow): http://www.free-codecs.com/download/ACE_Mega_CoDecS_Pack.htm

Since i've reinstalled my box, i've gotten away from packs, since they can be a pain to upgrade specific filters and codecs. i've installed everything from individual installers/files. This can be a pain too, especially when you want to watch something and you're not sure why it's not working. But it's easier to upgrade, and lessens some of the glut on your system.

I really like K-Lite the best from the other codec packs, it seems to play everything I have without a problem, and it's free from the www.free-codecs.com link that Aoi Tsuki provided.

VLC Player comes with a decent pack. If that doesn't work for you then look for something the ACE Mega CODEC Pack.
