GSpot 2.70a

Gspot is a utility that is able to identify exactly what codecs are required if you can’t play a video file you’ve downloaded. It will inspect the file and tell you which video and audio codecs have been used. Point it to the file you’re having trouble with and it will get to work. Gspot will also produce information about the file it is inspecting.

Features:

- Determines which video codec an AVI file uses
- Determines what audio encoding method the file uses
- Determines what codecs you have installed, and whether you have the one needed
- Up-to-date database of over 200 codecs, including the latest DivX 5 and XVID systems
- Shows reported audio bitrate and calculates video bitrate
- Reports if the file is truncated, and how many bytes are missing. Great for downloaders.
- Identifies MPG, MPEG, MOV, WMA, WMV, ASF or OGG/OGM if an unknown non-AVI file is examined.
- Shows RIFF INFO (title, etc) if present, including hidden ASCII in the "JUNK" field
- Easy to use ("File > Load" and you're done)
- Microscopic footprint - download size only 29KB
- Free for personal use
