I had this problem a while back, but I cant remember the exact fix. I do remember that it would only happen with certain logins. Are your movies on the CD. It might have somthing to do with the way you are determining which drive has the movies on it. I know it was an easy fix, but I cant remember exactly what it was. Ill take a look at that project and see if it will jog my memory.
-----Original Message----- From: Brennan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, December 08, 2003 5:19 AM To: Lingo-L Digest Subject: <lingo-l> Strange error on XP with MPEG Advance Xtra I've been debugging a fairly large project on Windows 2000. It uses the MPEG advance Xtra fairly extensively. There is only ever one MPEG on stage at once. When we run the project (or open the movies in Director) on an Acer laptop under XP professional, we get some strange error messages which appear to be coming from the OS, rather than Director.. The error message (in Danish) complains that there is no diskette in a drive which is not specified by DOS letter, but using a more UNIXy /devices/driveN/ or something like that. This machine has no 'diskette' drive, and all the media is on the hard disk. This message comes up every time an MPEG comes up, but only happens once for each MPEG. There are no 'where is?' messages, and the MPEGs play just fine when we dismiss the error box. The project plays fine thereafter until we reboot the machine. The problem seems to go away if I shift the MPEG one frame forward in the score (so that the full screen bitmap being used to conceal the hardware flicker appears first). This leads me to suspect some kind of incompatibility between MPEG advance and XP, but with the error message being in the system language, I also assume it is not coming from the Xtra. Any ideas?
