Activate codecs 327

Instructions
1. Open the menu "Help" > "Install additional programs".
2. Select "MainConcept MPEG-4 codec".
MAGIX Movie Edit Pro will check to see if the codec has already been licensed to
another MAGIX software and will use that license if this is the case.
If the codec has not already been licensed, then the fee-based activation will
continue.
The activation dialog will appear.
3. Click on "Activate online".
Your Internet browser will open.
If you have not already activated MAGIX Movie Edit Pro, a website for registering
MAGIX Movie Edit Pro will open.
You will then be forwarded to a website where you can request the corresponding
activation to be carried out.
4. Enter the requested information and complete the order.
Normally you will receive the activation code within a few minutes. In some cases,
this can take longer.

Note: In the event the activation code does not arrive after a longer period of time,
check to make sure the e-mail was not accidentally sent to your spam folder.

5. Copy the activation code from the e-mail.
6. Paste the activation code into the input field in the activation dialog.
7. Click on "Activate...".
The codec will be activated. MAGIX Movie Edit Pro checks the registration data,
downloads the codec and installs it.
In some cases, MAGIX Movie Edit Pro needs to be closed and restarted in order to
start using the codec.

Note: After successfully activating the MainConcept codec, you need to specify
under Program settings that this is the preferred codec to be used.

Activate HEVC (fee-based)

The HEVC codec requires a one-time, fee-based activation to be used.

You will be asked to activate HEVC the first time you import a video created with the
codec or export a project with the codec.

1. Click "To the shop" if you want to activate the codec online. (Alternatively: Click
"By Post/Fax..." to receive an activation code by post or email and follow the
instructions that appear.)
