...64-bit Ultimate?

People are sending me WMV files that defy attempts to play them.

Dammit.

I use WMP, VLC and Classic, normally; haven't messed with much else for some time.

With Vista Codec Package installed, you won't need to install any other codec or filter. Many user suggested default settings are implemented. It does not contain a media player. It does not associates filetypes.
With this package installed you will be able to use any media player (limited only by the players capabilities) to play DVD's, movies and video clips of any format. Streaming video (real and quicktime) is supported in web browsers. Visit the homepage to get a 64bitAddon which enables xvid, divx and DVD playback in Vista's MediaCenter.

Actually both TheKmplayer (http://www.kmplayer.com/forums/index.php) and BSPlayer (http://www.bsplayer.org/) play them straight out of the box, no extra codecs, they have them internally.

Why would you install a different media player just to play a particular file type when you can use your favorite one by simply installing a (tiny) codec pack?

[SonsOfLiberty]

Because those 2 are my favorites. And Google codecs and see how many peoples system's are messed up because of them. BTW- VLC doesn't need codec packs it's build around the same principle as TheKMPlayer is, no need for stupid codec packs.

Certainly not a wrong way to look at things.
