Activate codecs
You may activate encoders/decoders for various file formats as required. The
corresponding activation dialog will appear automatically when the codec is
used for the first time, e.g. when a DVD is burned and the MPEG-2 codec is
used.
Why does it have to be "activated"?
To import (decode) or export (encode) certain video and audio formats, you will
require a specific codec to be able to read in and export these formats. As
soon as the corresponding decoder or encoder is required, MAGIX Video Pro
X3 will notify you and ask you if you would like to activate it. Activation is only
possible for a valid registered version of MAGIX Video Pro X3. This is a copy
protection mechanism which ensures that only legal owners of the software
may use it completely.
Free activation of codecs
To be able to use MPEG-2, MPEG-4, Dolby Digital stereo import, and
Dolby Digital 5.1, you will have to activate the codecs for free.
Activation can be done online via telephone or via post/fax. The quickest and
easiest way to order an activation code is via the Internet.
Order activation code online
Click on "Order online..." (Field 1). MAGIX Video Pro X4 will automatically
contact the MAGIX server and load the corresponding codec.
Note: Activation of the codec checks the registration data as required.
Activation of the codec only functions if your version of the program has
already been registered in your name. If you haven't registered MAGIX Video
Pro X4, then you can do this at any time.
If your computer has no Internet access, you have the following options for
activation:
