moviewiz install causes config to crash

Torquewrench · 2008-08-15, 04:42 AM

Hi, just installed moviewiz on a fresh gbpvr install and it's throwing the error in the attached image when I try to open config. After clicking ok on the error I can go into config but the plugins are all blank.

Help!

I'm guessing that your config.xml is corrupt. Post it and the config.exe.log file and I'll take a look.

Uninstall of moviewiz caused the errors to go away, reinstalling brings the error back. Here's the config.xml and log with moviewiz installed (after) and without (before).

This looks like a problem with the Windows Media Player.

To assist in identifying the movie, I've embedded the WMP in the config pgm, so that you can dbl-click on the thumbnail image and it will play the movie.

Did you install GBPVR on a new machine? Have you also updated WMP to most current version?

I may be able to dynamically build that control at runtime based on a config setting if updating to the newest version does not fix your problem.

I'll make sure WMP is up-to-date and let you know if that fixes it.

By the way, looking at your sig, what is the Source part of your storage system used for?

That is where all my code and development tools reside.

Installed WMP11 and config no longer throws error on start, but when I went to Plugins and setting on moviewiz it threw an unhandled exception, which is in the attached text file.

Thanks,

Right, there was a bug introduced into the last version. Unzip the attached version (v1.0.18.2) into gbpvr/plugins/MovieWiz, and you should be good to go.
