Codec packs in general are not good (since you read the Help2Help topic you should have also read the "stay away from codec-packs" sentence at beginning of section (4))..
I don't suggest you to install a codec pack, but if you want to use a codec pack, then maybe try K-Lite one, and use the "Playback only" settings. (Then in "DirectShow: Source Filters" choose Gabest for MP4 and Matroska splitter, OggDS for Ogg splitters, and Elecard MPEG Demuxer.. never had any problem with those settings)
But i still suggest you to install only the codecs you really need
