The Shark007 codec package has been solving the problems in reproduction of user videos on Windows for a long time. Now, its developers bring us a new update that promises to solve the most pressing problems when reproducing files of various formats. This tool stands out for improving the compatibility of video files in players such as VLC or the classic media player.
Something that has characterized Shark007 has always been its portability and lightness. As soon as it enters the team’s resources, so it is very little invasive and you can share it with different systems. And, once installed, you can see virtually any video format from your PC, and if you decide to uninstall it, it will not leave any mark or remaining files.
The new update: Shark007 20.0.2
The latest version of Shark007 brings key updates for the optimization of multimedia reproductions, and as such, we can find:
- Lav filters update: These filters have the ability to decode audio and video, and now reach their 0.79.2.20 version. Which brings improvements in reproductions with format H.264, HEVC and VP9. If we reproduce content with this type of formats, they will now make less use of the resources of our systems.
- Mediainfo DLL: This tool is what allows us to obtain detailed information from the different files we want to play. In it you can see data such as the codec used, the bits rate, the resolution of the content or the duration of the video. Its update to version 24.12 improves support for emerging formats and the precision of metadata.
- MPC-B FILTERS: The Filters «Media Player Classic-Black Edition» have been updated to version 1.8.2.112 to improve the reproduction of high definition videos. They also establish a new support for HDR technology. This technology will improve our viewing tester as long as we have a compatible screen.
- Icaros: your update to version 3.3.3 helps us for your improvement in the visualization of video miniatures. This can be a huge advance for those who hold large libraries with different video formats, since you can recognize each of a simple look.
These improvements join the existing characteristics of the application, such as free discharge and use (from the official Shark007 website) or a simple interface to handle. It also has the functionality of improving the reproduction of 4K videos and Dolby and DTS audio formats. It is compatible with 64 -bit systems and has settings available for more advanced users. All this with a minimum impact on system performance.
The discharge of the update 20.0.2 is now available on its official website, always for free. While it is not an open source tool, the developer has always transmitted its commitment to the user community. His updates have been maintained over time.
If we had to define this latest update in a few words, we could say that it improves its compatibility in different fields, the performance of our equipment and the ease of use by the user.
