3. Viewing the Files
The video files generated by the KSC52 are in MPEG-4 format, and your PC must be capable of playing this
type of video file. If Windows Media Player is installed on the PC, it will play the files after you run a software
utility named mpegable DS decoder v2.1 Setup .exe that updates Windows Media Player.
Remember mpegable DS decoder v2.1 Setup .exe and MicroVi8002.exe and from #2(d) previously? With the
KSC52 connected to the PC, open the KSC52’s folder in Windows (as in step 2(c)). Double-click on the
mpegable DS decoder v2.1 Setup .exe icon to run this program. You only need to run this once, the first time
you use the KSC52 with a PC. It updates the PC’s installed version of Windows Media Player so it can play
MPEG-4.
You can open the files in Windows Media Player by starting Windows Media Player then opening the video
files from within Windows Media Player, or by double-clicking on a video file icon then telling Windows to use
Windows Media Player to open the file. The first time you try to view the files by double-clicking on their
icons, Windows may display a box asking what program it should use to open the files. If you will be using
Windows Media Player, put a checkmark in the box “Select from List” then click Ok. Select Windows Media
Player from the list displayed. Then check the option to always use that program. Finally, click Ok.
When Windows Media Player opens, it will display an error message complaining about the file extension not
being recognized by Windows and asking whether you want it to play the file. Select “don’t ask me again for
this extension” then click Yes. That’s it! You won’t be bothered again next time you want to play the video
files.
If you can’t get Windows media Player to play the video files your PC may have an older version of
Windows Media Player. Update to the latest version (free from Microsoft online) then run mpegable DS
decoder v2.1 Setup .exe and it should work fine.
