Is it possible there is some kind of permissions issue on the other 
machines? (Shooting in the dark here - I'm not up on Windows permissions 
but maybe you are.)

If you pick the video file with a file dialog and set the filename of the player to 
"it", will it play then? If so, maybe you're having a path issue.

Hi Jacque,

that's what I also already thought of. But I haven't found yet, how/where I 
could check for it. I have an old nice tool, called gspot, which usually tells 
me everything about any video, but it doesn't work with theses H.264 mp4's.  I 
was on the intel site and downloaded a media sdk, installed it on one of those 
not working machines, but without success. But actually I don't even know, if 
that codec is part of that media sdk, they don't describe the detailed content. 
So it was a shot into the dark and I didn't found yet a dedicated download for 
that codec.

Do the other machines have the mp4 codec installed? Most versions of Windows 
didn't ship with it, you had to install it separately.

Betreff: Trouble playing videos with MS DirectShow LC 8

Hello,



With LC 8.1.2 I changed the video standard in my programs from
Quicktime to the new standard interface DirectShow on Windows. I
recoded all videos to
mp4 with Intel QSV H.264.

On my developing W10 machine everything works fine in the IDE and
standalone. Now after release it looks like my developing machine is
"the only one" which can play the new videos in my new LiveCode program.

On a W7, W8 and other W10 machine I get the error "could not create
movie reference" when setting the filename of the player object.

Actually the DirectShow standard should be available from W7 to W10
and when just double clicking the video, it can be played on all
those other machines with the standard video player, so it doesn't
seem to be an codec issue. On the other hand something from the
environment must be different on my developing machine.

I also tried to build a new standalone with LC 9.0 dp3, but testing
the standalone it show the same issue.



Has anybody any idea, where to start searching?

What could be different on my developing machine as on all other machines?

Are there any known system requirements for using DirectShow? (which
I have set unconsciously on my machine)



Thanks for any ideas

Tiemo
