ReClock

ReClock, developed by SlySoft, is a Multimedia tool in the Editors & Converters subcategory designed to enhance your video playback experience on the PC. The latest version, 1.9, and previous versions such as 1.8 and 1.7, come equipped with improved features aiming to resolve jerky playback issues for AVI and MPEG files. Utilizing Config.exe, ReClock replaces the default DirectSound audio renderer with a DirectShow filter to align audio and video with the video card hardware clock. This synchronization eliminates common playback disruptions and ensures frames are rendered at the correct speed according to the video card vertical sync.

One of the standout features of ReClock is its frame rate adapter. This capability is particularly useful for media files that do not match the video card's refresh rate. For example, it allows the smooth playback of 23.976fps IVTC NTSC content on a PAL TV. Additionally, ReClock includes an advanced audio renderer that offers real-time rate adaptation, whether hardware or software-based, and supports multi-channel audio. It also features dynamic range compression capabilities.

ReClock version 1.9 is compatible with a wide range of Windows OS, including Windows XP, XP Professional, Vista, 7, 8, 10, and 11. This broad compatibility ensures that users with different systems can benefit from the tool's advanced functionalities.

The free download of ReClock can be a game-changer for anyone looking to improve their media playback experience. Once installed, users can avoid the hassle of jerky video playback and enjoy a smoother viewing experience. The download and setting up process are facilitated by the intuitive Config.exe file, which simplifies initial configurations.
