GSpot V2.70a
Suggested by Andrew Lee - Added on 23 Feb 2007

Category: Video - Codec Identification (3)

Synopsis: Simply drag-and-drop any AVI file to the GSpot window, and GSpot will determine which audio and video codecs are required to play the file, as well as whether these codecs are installed on your system.

Writes settings to: Windows registry. I am accepting it as portable on the assumption that it will only be used occasionally to troubleshoot codec problems, so portable settings is that important.

How to extract: Download the ZIP package and extract to a folder of your choice. Launch the program by double-clicking on GSpot.exe.
