 +In 2014, the in-game videos were re-encoded using the FFDShow codec pack and simultaneously upscaled to a resolution of 640x480p. This is useful due to the fact that modern versions of Windows now block the Indeo Codec due to security exploits that were not fixed.
 +
 +The following requirements must be met for the in-game player to load videos for playing:
 +
 +Container: AVI
 +
 +Audio Codec: ppm_s16le (16-bit Signed PCM WAV)
 +
 +Fortunately, the video codec is interchangeable and any desired codec can be used for the video stream, so long as the client system includes that codec.
