Media Player Codec Pack is one of the most popular choices for those looking for a powerful codec pack to install on Windows and thanks to an update released today, the whole performance should be even better.

According to the official release notes, Media Player Codec Pack 4.3.1 comes with several bug fixes, which means that users who have experienced some playback issues after deploying this particular codec pack are recommended to update as soon as possible.

The feature lineup remains unchanged and, in addition, Media Player Codec Pack 4.3.1 still works on Windows XP, just like the majority of codec packs still on the market.

This particular aspect is fairly important, especially for those who are yet to upgrade to a different operating system, as Microsoft no longer provides patches and security fixes for this particular OS version. This means that users who are still running it are left without updates, so third-party software could really come in handy especially when trying to deal with system issues.

In the end, this new codec pack is clearly helpful for users who are trying to play various media files on their computers, so download Media Player Codec Pack 4.3.1 right now to give it a try and see if the new version fixes the issues you found or not.
