Have you ever encounter anything like this when playing video or movie files?

1. Picture freezes, but sound keeps going when playing movies.
2. Only audio is playing, but there is nothing on screen, just black screen.
3. Audio and video is not synchronise
4. Sound is playing faster than images

It is because you need codec. What is codec?

Codec is also known as compression or decompression. It also means code or decode. Codec can compress large videos or movies and make them more smaller without losing much quality. Codec is needed in order to play videos or movies that you download off from the internet.


What is the best video codec nowadays?

I recommend you K-Lite Codec Pack since its fully packed with all type of codec and you can choose any codec you want to install or you don't. I did not have any trouble anymore to play any videos or movies after installed the K-Lite Codec Pack.

Today Avira released their latest new version of Avira Antivir that is version 10.It is available for download and what is the best thing is it is free !
This latest version is more upgraded and the GUI is look more cool.

Antivir 10 Free also known as Antivir 10 Personal provide the antivirus, anti-malware, anti-spyware and anti-rootkit modules for free.

My personal opinion, since the earlier Avira, they are perfect free antivirus for me because its fast and the detection is good.


Avira Free Edition Version 10 Screenshot


Avira Antivir 10 displays a configuration wizard on first start. We also can configure the detection level of the AHeaD heuristics module, the types of threats that Avira Antivir Personal should detect (adware, dialers, games, fraudulent software, backdoor and many more).

Words from Avira Technical Editor

Many users waited for Avira AntiVir ProActiv, our behavioral blocking component. It monitors the program activity on the computer and as soon as suspicious behavior gets detected, blocks the program from running. Also, in case the malware is yet unknown, the user can take part in the Avira Community and send the sample to the Avira Malware Researchers for an in-depth analysis. This way, every user of Avira AntiVir Premium and Avira Premium Security Suite can help making the Internet a safer place as detection for this malware gets added to all Avira products.
The new “generic repair” can better clean computers from infections. Instead of just deleting the malware file when there exists no special repair routine, Avira AntiVir now cleans the registry and the filesystem from further garbage which a virus may have left on the system. This ensures for example that a PC is still bootable when a malware has been removed.

About Google

Google Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOG, FWB: GGQ1) is a multinational public cloud computing and Internet search technologies corporation that hosts and develops a number of Internet-based services and products, generating profit primarily from advertising through its AdWords program. Google was founded by Larry Page and Sergey Brin while the two were attending Stanford University as Ph.D. candidates. It was first incorporated as a privately held company on September 4, 1998, with its initial public offering to follow on August 19, 2004. Its headquarters, located in Mountain View, California, is often referred to as the Googleplex, which is derived from the number googolplex. The company's stated mission from the outset was "to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful", and the company's unofficial slogan, coined by Google engineer Paul Buchheit, was Don't be evil. It runs over one million servers in data centers around the world,processing over one billion search requests every day and about one petabyte of user-generated data each hour. Even the company's name, Google, was a play on the large number googol to represent the large amount of information the company set out to organize.

About Facebook

Facebook is a social networking website that is operated and privately owned by Facebook, Inc.Users can add friends and send them messages, and update their personal profiles to notify friends about themselves. Additionally, users can join networks organized by city, workplace, and school or college. The website's name stems from the colloquial name of books given at the start of the academic year by university administrations with the intention of helping students to get to know each other better.

Mark Zuckerberg founded Facebook with his college roommates and fellow computer science students Eduardo Saverin, Dustin Moskovitz and Chris Hughes while he was a student at Harvard University.The website's membership was initially limited by the founders to Harvard students, but was expanded to other colleges in the Boston area, the Ivy League, and Stanford University. It later expanded further to include (potentially) any university student, then high school students, and, finally, to anyone aged 13 and over. The website currently has more than 400 million active users worldwide.

The original concept for Facebook was borrowed from a product produced by Zuckerberg's prep school Phillips Exeter Academy which for decades published and distributed a printed manual of all students and faculty, unofficially called the "face book".

Review from Engadget.Com

Is Apple iPad worth to buy?


Here it is folks, the Apple iPad. The screen is gorgeous, tilting is responsive, and the thing is super thin. Still, if you've used the iPhone before -- and you can see the two devices side-by-side here -- there's not a lot of surprises here so far. Here are some initial thoughts on the iPad:

1. It's not light. It feels pretty weighty in your hand.
2. The screen is stunning, and it's 1024 x 768. Feels just like a huge iPhone in your hands.
3. The speed of the CPU is something to be marveled at. It is blazingly fast from what we can tell. Webpages loaded up super fast, and scrolling was without a hiccup. Moving into and out of apps was a breeze. Everything flew. 
4. There's no multitasking at all. It's a real disappointment. All this power and very little you can do with it at once. No multitasking means no streaming Pandora when you're working in Pages... you can figure it out. It's a real setback for this device.
5. The ebook implementation is about as close as you can get to reading without a stack of bound paper in your hand. The visual stuff really helps flesh out the experience. It may be just for show, but it counts here.
6. No camera. None, nada. Zip. No video conferencing here folks. Hell, it doesn't have an SMS app!
7. It's running iPhone OS 3.2.
8. The keyboard is good, not great. Not quite as responsive as it looked in the demos.

No Flash confirmed. So Hulu is out for you, folks!

The things that really sucks from my opinion is :

1. No camera on iPad
2. Memory capacity 16,32 and 64 GB only. Come on, this is not 2009 ? iPod Touch 3rd Gen got more higher capacity. Apple want to play marketing strategy there just like they doing on iPhone right now. 2megapixel,3megapixel where other phone standard is already 5megapixel with Xenon flash already.
3. I'm wondering how to play games on iPad, you might drop it because of its weight.
4. No multitasking. What the fish?
5. OS still stuck on 3.1.2. Where OS 4.0?
6. Price quite expensive.$499 for 16GB, 32GB for $599, and $699 64GB. Adding 3G costs a $130 per model, so the most expensive model (64GB / 3G) is $829.
7. Flash still not supported. This is funny

Rumors about Apple Tablet, OS 4.0 , iSlate, iTablet or whatever they called it, is everywhere !!!

OMG!!!! Apple Fanboy increase everyday !! And today we heard the news that iPhone save Haitian

An American filmmaker trapped in the Haitian earthquake used his iPhone in some pretty ingenious ways to survive until he could be rescued 65 hours later. It's like a digital multitool!
Dan Woolley was caught under a pile of rubble when the earthquake hit, injuring both his leg and his head. A first-aid app instructed him on the best way to create a tourniquet for his leg and a bandage for his head, and even warned him against falling asleep after head trauma—so he set his iPhone's alarm clock to go off every 20 minutes as a precaution.
Evidently the strategies worked, because he survived long enough to be rescued 65 hours later and reunited with his family. I can't figure out exactly which app he used, which is mildly inconvenient since now I'll have to download every first-aid app I can find.
