Shut the gate signtemplate

Funnyshut the gate sign

So I finally actually upgraded my rig after 7 long years - New PC has a Z690 mobo, i7 12700 cpu, enough ram and it is looking pretty sweet.

Went through all the stuff installed on my older machine, trying to decide what to contaminate my new machine with, and after installing some of the usual suspects (for me - winrar, adobe stuff, office, discord, windirstat, search everything, handbrake, mkvtoolnix, mediainfo, advanced renamer, picard, winscp, subtitle edit, teamviewer) I automatically looked for the CCCP codec pack website to download and install it and realized its been discontinued.

EDIT: Of course I should have mentioned VLC - I'm probably gonna get some hate for it but I don't like using it as my main video player. I don't have a good explanation why, and I do have it installed for when it is needed, but I'm just so used to mpc-hc as my main player.

That made me think - are Codec packs still a thing? I installed MS's hevc (free) codec of course, and I would like to use mpc-hc just cause I'm used to it, but I'm not sure I actually need a codec pack anymore...
