I have Mercalli V2 but I refuse to put K-Lite on my editing workstation. I don't see how ProDAD can only copy it into it's own folder because they tell you to download the real thing from the Internet which is very intrusive. The K-Like codec pak has been known to cause problems and it has been documented time and time again (i.e., people have problems, they uninstall K-Lite, the problems go away). I think ProDAD should be ashamed of the "unprofessional" and "incomplete" product they have produced. Imagine if you bought Avid Media Composer, or Adobe Premiere Pro, or Apple Final Cut Pro X, or Sony Vegas Pro but it couldn't read ANY files unless you download a collection of questionable free codecs? They would be laughed out of the industry.
If ProDAD were "professional" they would license the codecs they need and provide their customer with a complete solution. IMHO, there is nothing "professional" about shipping a product that doesn't work and then asking customers to download questionable content to get it to work. but the product in question sells itself as a "pro" edition, and by not installing it I appear to have run foul of support."
