Once installed, open the RECORD in Virtual Dj 7 and the tab video codec you appear different codecs, I have used Xvid and you can configure it with different quality options

Get Lucky

NOTE: OPTIONS MAY VARY ACCORDING TO THE EQUIPMENT WHICH INSTALLS THE CODEC PACK-

usually - due to the card and drivers of AUDIO. Although the differences are not very notable.Instructions created from computer with Realtek HD audio controller (because that is the most common).
1 open the installer, click NEXT.
2.-in case we appear the option, uncheck the box PERFORM QUICK UPGRADE and click NEXT. *(la primera vez, por si ya lo teníamos instalado y no está bien)configured, the next updates will leave this checked).
3. on the next page of options setting up "CUSTOM SELECTION".

Then. Check the following boxes:

Player - MPC-HC 1.7.5.195
In the following, we will mark LAV if we have a Nvidia video card or if we use any of the Nvidia audio drivers. If it is a device with integrated graphics Intel HD series we also mark this option. Case no LAV, that appears to us or that you have not reached one of the above requirements, we will mark FFDSHOW.
I use Nvidia video card, so I mark the following options such as:
DirectShow video decoding filters: - H.264 - LAV
| - MPEG-4 - LAV (mark Xvid if you acostumbréis to watch movies in)
streaming)
| - MPEG-2 - LAV
| - VC-1 - LAV

|-Windows Media Video - LAV

|-Other video formats - Prefer LAV over ffdshow. (mark not ONLY because in some)
If Yes use ffdshow and it can cause discomfort) |

|-Process raw video - Use ffdshow (you can see here we use ffdshow)

In the following mark LAV if we use digital audio of nvidia driver, case contrary (most) mark AC3 except in other audio formats:

DirectShow audio decoding filters: - AC3, DTS, E-AC3, TrueHD, MLP, LPCM - AC3 filter |

| - AAC - AC3 Filter.

| - MP1, MP2, MP3 - AC3 Filter

|-Other audio formats: Prefer ffdshow over LAV. |

|-Process uncompressed audio - AC3 Filter

In the following the same old, mark LAV only if we have a video card with chip Nvidia except when you put (always) or if I put another option although I myself have a NVIDIA.

DirectShow Source filters: - AVI - LAV (always)

| - Matroska - Haali (always)

| - MP4 - LAV.

| - MPEG-TS - LAV.

| - MPEG-PS - LAV (always)

|-Windows Media - LAV (always)

|-Monkey's Audio (APE) - DCoder (always)

We will also mark the three following boxes (H.264, VC-1 and MPEG-2)

We mark the first choice (stereo) unless we have speakers with subwoofer to with two or three wires connected to the PC (one for the subwoofer and another for channelsleft and right, a third cable could be for left and right channels rear)

If you have speakers connected with two wires (sub + stereo) mark 2.1.

If you have 3 wires (sub + stereo front + rear stereo) mark 5.1.

If you have two cables (two front and two rear) subwoofer without mark 4.0.
