Sherlock - The Codec Detective! 2.0
Sherlock the Codec Detective is a brilliant and innovative tool that has been created by Marc Liron Microsoft MVP, this tool is just great because it tells you just what codecs are installed and running on your machine, such as audio and video codec's and even to detect if they are broken!
Key features of Sherlock the Codec Detective!
* 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 to run on a PC and did NOT require installing...
* SMALL enough for download by modem!
What's new in version 2.0:
- 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.
