Combined Community Codec Pack has received a new set of improvements today, so in case you’re already running it right now, make sure you deploy this build as soon as possible.

Just like all the other releases that reached the web lately, version 2013-11-27 packs options for the built-in components, which should basically lead to improved video and music playback on your computer.

LAV Filters have been updated to version 0.59.1.0-6cdab1c, while also getting a few changes that are supposed to resolve some of the issues reported by users on Windows XP.

“DXVA2ExtendedFormat colorimetry is now disabled in LAV Video if the Overlay mixer is in the graph, except when LAV Video is connected to a VSFilter. This fixes a black screen problem that some XP users possibly encountered,” the developing team said in a short note.

Support for all Windows versions continues to be offered, so go ahead and download Combined Community Codec Pack 2013-11-27 right now even if you’ve made the move to Windows 8.1.
