 Video codec - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A common problem when an end user wants to watch a video stream encoded with a specific codec is that if the exact codec is not present and properly installed on the user's machine, the video won't play (or won't play optimally).
Online video material is encoded in a variety of codecs, and this has led to the availability of codec packs - a pre-assembled set of commonly used codecs combined with an installer available as a software package for PCs.
Video codec designs are often standardized - i.e., specified precisely in a published document.

 Codec - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Codec is a portmanteau of either 'Compressor-Decompressor', 'Coder-Decoder', or 'Compression/Decompression algorithm' which describes a device or program capable of performing transformations on a data stream or signal.
The raw encoded form of audio and video data is often called essence, to distinguish it from the metadata information that together make up the information content of the stream and any "wrapper" data that is then added to aid access to or improve the robustness of the stream.
For other uses of codec, see Codec (disambiguation).

 Video Compression: A Codec Primer
A codec can be either a software application or a piece of hardware that processes video through complex algorithms, which compress the file and then decompress it for playback.
In the past few years, there have been big advancements in the development of codecs, which allow video to be reduced to a reasonable file size for use on CD-ROMs and for Web delivery.
We will take a brief look at the main ingredients of video compression, including the difference between compression schemes, hardware and software codecs, video-compressing freeware that works just fine, and architectures (which are like all-in-one packages that handle the entire compression and decompression process).
