- GSpot

GSpot is a free .exe application that can be run without any installation that enables you to discover which codec has been used to encode a particular video. After you import a video, GSpot will automatically give you all the information you need to play that file: video and audio codec, bitrate, size and format. It will then tell you if the codec you need is installed on your machine or not. Free to download and use.
