hi,
copying dlls add "video windows" module on server core not recommended avicap32.dll has other dependencies, other issue windows not aware of change , might broken further windows updates. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj635953.aspx, enable "video windows" module, should install desktopexperience package, formal way do.
