They are all in capital letters on my system, too. For me, they are all showing as registered in RegDllView. Since you don't see all 3 files as registered, that is a problem. You say that you ran the Tweak Tool, right? What did it say? Let's try to register those DLLs. From an elevated Command Prompt (run as administrator) enter: <code> regsvr32 msmpeg2adec.dll regsvr32 msmpeg2enc.dll </code> There is more information on the <a href="http://support.microsoft.com/kb/249873">regsvr32 command here</a>.

In RegDllView, you want to look in the top box. Use the menu item View -> AutoSize Columns to make the full filenames show up. When you search (Ctrl+F) and enter "msmpeg2enc" it will highlight the entry if found. I just tried searching for a non-existent file and the search feature in RegDllView does not provide any feedback it just remains with the first item selected. When I do a find on msmpeg2enc it moves to that filename and when I copy (Ctrl+C) the item, it shows this: <code> C:\Windows\System32\msmpeg2enc.dll 6 0 7/17/2007 0:48:50 </code> Do you have this file on your system? It must be in the path shown, C:\Windows\System32.

So I'm not sure if it is found or not. {C523F39F-9C83-11D3-9094-00104BD0D535} AcrobatAccess Class AcroAccess.AcrobatAccess.1 No Apartment 2/16/2009 8:09:48 PM ScottW on "(Solved) - Mpeg-2 Encoder missing" http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/mpeg-2-encoder-missing#post-94288 Sat, 13 Jun 2009 01:30:24 +0000 ScottW 94288@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ No surprise, but the Media Center Decoder Utility (MCDU) only shows *decoders*, but your system is complaining about a missing *encoder*. Let's look for the missing encoder. Go to Start and type in the Search box, "msmpeg2enc.dll". Assuming that you haven't disabled file indexing this should find the MS MPEG-2 Encoder DLL. Or, if it doesn't find it we know that it's missing. If you see more than one, the only one that we are insterested in will be in C:\Windows\System32 or wherever your System32 directory is. That will tell us if the file is present or absent. But even if it is present, we still need to check to see if it is registered. Get a copy of the utility, <a href="http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/registered_dll_view.html">RegDllView from Nirsoft</a>. This utility does not require installation, just unpack the zip file. Run RegDllView and do a Find (Ctrl+F) on "msmpeg2enc.dll". If it's found, right-click on it and choose "Copy selected items", then paste the output in a new post. Don't worry about the formatting. If it's not found let me know. Download *just* the Tweak Tool from <a href="http://www.free-codecs.com/download/Codec_Tweak_Tool.htm">free-codecs.com</a>. Ironically, this tool comes from the K-lite people. While I recommend against their codec packs, the Tweak Tool is very useful. Set it to detect broken codecs and filters and let it fix what it can.

I expect that the utility that you have is the <a href="http://mediacenterexpert.blogspot.com/2009/04/announcing-mcdu-media-center-decoder.html">MCDU from this website</a>. Is this the one that says "current values not found"? I would recommend that you uninstall any and all K-lite codec packs, mega or otherwise, or any other codec packs you have lying around (VCP, CCCP, etc.) Then run the <a href="http://www.free-codecs.com/download/Codec_Tweak_Tool.htm">Tweak Tool</a> and set it to detect broken codecs and filters. Hopefully it will clean up the damage done by K-lite. After that, run the MCDU again and see what it says. Then we will continue to work on the problem.

I'm using Vista Home Premium I'm trying to publish a movie I made in Movie maker and it says mpeg-2 encoder is missing (I had Klite already on my computer from a previous problem I was having). I called HP they uninstalled reinstalled Klite and some other programs still nothing different. Now my movie I made is not showing the video on some clips and my dvd burner still does not work. Anyone have any suggestions please?
