(This is a resend of an earlier note. Interestingly, I just tried master Semeraro's new Basic Image, and it worked the first time, but it crashes consistently after that. I haven't tried rebooting to see if there is something in the environment that allows this app to work the first time.
Anybody have any clues?) I haven't seen this before, but it's biting me big time right now. I have an XP machine (which was upgraded from Win2K). I installed all the usual stuff, with no apparent problems. I can get connected to my venue - I get sound and audio - no problem. But when I try anything that is based on the shared app code (Shared Movie, Basic Image, Shared Presentation), python crashes. Strangely, the Shared Browser works fine. And also strangely, if I start up the Venue Client in debug mode, I can get the Shared Presentation to come up fine, but not the Shared Movie or Basic Image. I have removed all the code, including Python, removed all the files that I know about in the Program Files and Documents and Settings directories, and re-installed from scratch. That doesn't fix the problem. And since python is crashing, I don't see any evidence in any of the log files, but I could certainly forward what I have if it helps. Thanks for any help! -randy
