> I know the 64 bit is buggy why? what? what exactly are you referring to with "the 64th bit"? how is it buggy? > but according to my searching [pix_write] has had issues for a while? if it does has issues with PdX-0.43.3 then it will have these issues forever. i don't think anybody will make a bugfix version of this PdX release ever...rather a new shiny PdX-0.45.6 might come out... in any case: - [pix_write] is deprecated in favour of [pix_writer] (which takes the incoming PIX to write, rather than creating a snapshot of the current framebuffer). the deprecation happened because [pix_write] is flawed by design rather than any bugs. - which imageplugins are you using? search for files called "gem_image*.so" in your extra/Gem/ folder. if you have both gem_imageTIFF.so and gem_imageMAGICK.so try disabling one of them (just rename it to something not starting with "gem_" && not ending with ".so, e.g. gem_imageTIFF.so.disabled) and see if it helps; if not try disabling the other one. the MAGICK plugin should be the preferred one. fgamsdr IOhannes
