A video capture library my RCP application is using, requires two DLLs to
be put into the DLL search path (such as system32) in order to run. Is
there any way to package these DLLs in my RCP applcation so the the video
library can find them?

Yes, just put them in the root of the plugin when it's exported. You can then call System.loadLibrary() to bring them in. You have to be careful if one is dependent on the other one to load them in the right order.

The other approach is to list them in a Bundle-NativeCode: to let the OSGi framework do that automatically on your behalf. You can then specify extra flags to say which operating system they're valid on.
