Recommended video settings for Magic Camera
Decoders:
K-Lite Codec Pack
Magic Camera may need some video/audio decoders for
correctly playing video files.
K-Lite Codec Pack Mega
Version is recommended. If you use 64bits Windows, also
install K-Lite 64-bit package.

QuickTime Alternative
If you want to play RMVB or QuickTime video formats, the Real/QuickTime

the latest version of Windows Media Player (You can
download it from Microsoft website).

videos in Magic Camera, you may try:
1) Click 'Startup Menu->K-Lite Codec Pack->configuration->ffdshow video
decoder'.

NOTE for Windows 7 Users: Disable Microsoft dtv-dvd decoder
Windows 7 forces applications to use Microsoft's own dtv-dvd video decoder,
which has many compatible issues. So if you cannot play some videos inside Magic Camera on Windows 7, you
may try:
1) Go to 'Menu->K-Lite Codec Pack->Tools', and then launch Win7DSFilterTweaker;
2) Choose "FFDShow" when available, and disable all Microsoft choices.

You can also google 'disable Microsoft dtv-dvd decoder' to find more
reference.
