Yes and no. Actually codecs were installed. But not 'mega pack', it was standart version of K-Lite codec pack. Normally you shouldn't need codecs to watch videos because they were integrated to CI, it seems there's an issue with it.

Will I have to install the codecs on every computer I use - or just the one I use the C.I on?
IE: I have 2 PC's at home, the one I use to compile the games, and the other one is where I Install/Store the games.

Will the codecs be needed on Just the one I use to compile, or just the one that runs the installers, Or both?

If no one knows, I will just test.

-EDIT-
The codecs are needed on the machine that the game is being installed on - as long as that machine has the codecs it will show the movie.
You dont need codecs to compile AFAIK, you need codecs when you install the game/watch the video. So, install the codec pack on the PC which you'll install games.
