Hi guys,

I have got following problem;

I am using TActiveMovie in my application.

- MPG and AVI videos are working fine.

But WMV videos are having following problems;

- Delphi 7.0 keeps giving error at run time about a new debugger which need
to be stopped!

- Application keeps asking a codec from microsoft even WMV videos are
working perfect in Windows Media Player!

- My application keeps displaying Windows logo animation at the beginning of
WMV video (it is disabled in TActiveMovie)!

I noticed that TActiveMovie is using an older version of Windows Media
Player which v.6.4. And I do have the newest TActiveMovie.

And please notice!
I have been playing with the codecs for very long and I am certain about
that, it is not codec problem!

Are there any possibilities of fixing this??

Please help!

This one is often caused by having Nero on your system. I made 2
batch files to enable and disable the part of Nero that causes it and
placed them on my desktop:

DisableNero.bat
cd C:\Progra~1\Common~1
rename Ahead Ahead~
cls

EnableNero.bat
cd C:\Progra~1\Common~1
rename Ahead~ Ahead
cls

Thanks Mike,
I have noticed that myself and I have fixed the problem!

But I still have that bloody windows media player logo when playing WMV
files.

I believe the problem is TActiveMovie itself!!

I did make tests with Delphi's MediaPlayer and everything works like a
charm!

I did make tests with Delphi's MediaPlayer ActiveX component and everything
works like a charm!

It does the trick only with TActiveMovie which I simply have to use because
of my needs!

TActiveMovie is using MediaPlayer 6.4?????

If it would use the default there would not be any trouble at all.

Please help!

I do not know where I can get working version of these components?

Are you using V2.34? I had no problems installing it in D7. Which
version of Delphi are you using?

Sounds like you may not have set up the library paths correctly.
These paths need to be added to Tools->Envoronment->Library

<PathToDsPack>\SDPACK234\src\DSPack
<PathToDsPack>\SDPACK234\src\DirectX9
<PathToDsPack>\SDPACK234\src

Mine are like this:

E:\Dev\Delphi7\SDPACK234\src\DSPack
E:\Dev\Delphi7\SDPACK234\src\DirectX9
E:\Dev\Delphi7\SDPACK234\src

Then you should already have jedi.inc, unless your search paths are not
setup properly.

Many thanks guys,

I have finally managed to install the components!
But there is not much different than Delphi's MediaPlayer!

So,
I am still looking for help about how to fix the WMV problem in
TActiveMovie?

Do you have Windows Media Player 10 installed?

IIRC, I had problems with some WMV files on systems
that didn't have WMP10

Also, Make sure you are using DirectX 9c.

Yes Mike,

I work lot with videos and codecs.
I do have everything required.

The problem with DS Pack is, it does not have the features I need.

That is why I desperately need to solve the WMV problem with TActiveMovie.

It is ok to have debugger error but it is not to have that stupid windows
media player logo at the start of WMV videos.
