Without the CODEC you are CODONE.

Cycle through a power off reboot.

Success? Yahoo.

Failed? Continue.

Then reload software separately then individually load online updates.

If not successful, find a comfortable chair and make the call.

Based on your knowledge of activity on your puter recently, you may consider installing a previous restore point.

Sorry David. I use a Mac. Final Cut Pro X does an excellent job with green screen. Your lighting is key. Study as much as you can about lighting effects.

When I have heard about CODEC missing errors a reinstall may be the fix. I would Google your questions.
