10 lemme guess. you're suing an amd64 profile? if you use a pure-64bit system,
11 you can't use 32bit binary windows codecs, so it's masked for your profile.
12 i'm in the same boat as you. as far as i know, the only options we have are
13 (a) re-installing at 32bit, (b) waiting 'till the windows world catches up
14 and starts releasing 64bit binary codecs or (c) writing our own decoders :-(
