Hi Jason, I've been running a personal node on a Vista x64 system for months now. It started off working perfectly with AG 3.1 and when I tried the 3.2 beta I didn't have much success so I went back to 3.1. It doesn't work as well as it used to on one respect; when I enter a venue or change between multicast and unicast I get a message from vic.exe saying "bind: An invalid argument was supplied." The producer vic starts but the consumer vic doesn't. I have to unmute the producer vic windows to see video, but otherwise both audio and video work fine. If I try to use a "VideoService" instead of separate producer and consumers, the service addition fails with a Message: "Add Service failed:VideoService",
I haven't had time to fiddle with the software, so a clean reinstall might make it work again, although as I recall I was trying the 3.2 beta around the time that Vista SP1 came out, so the problem might have been introduced with that. I didn't do anything special for the install, just downloaded dependencies using the AG website links. I'm using a Logitech Communicate STX camera and whatever the onboard audio on a Thunder K8WE MB is, with Vista Enterprise x64.

G'day All Just a quick one! I was wondering if anyone has had any success with having the AG working on Vista ? If you have, can you tell me the following info please? . Which version were you using (3.1 or 3.2 beta?, the all in one installer, or the separate packages); . Does all of the following work: o Vic o Rat o VPCScreen o VenueVNC . Was there anything special you had to do to get it working. The reason for the question is I "quickly" tried installing the software on Vista and had some pythonw errors. Before I investigate further tomorrow, I am just wanting to hear if anyone has had any success and was there anything special you had to do to get it working? Many thanks in advance, Jason. -------------------------------------------- Jason Bell, B.I.T.
