Hi all,


(thanks to chris and martenr for vomp - it rocks)

For what it's worth, I was missing a few things that might save others some trouble.

I did not have directx on this machine (xp-sp2, current updates), so googled and got the redistributables from Microsoft at:

  http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/ - search for directx, i got the aug2006 redists and installed

I also did not have the msvcr71.dll - looks like a visual-c runtime dll - googled and got it at:

  http://www.driverskit.net/dll/get/2373.html - put in same folder as the vompclient.exe

Nor did I have the msvcp71.dll - also probably related to visual-c - also got it at:

  http://www.driverskit.net/dll/get/2371.html - also works if in the same folder as the vompclient.exe

your mileage may vary, but PLEASE check ALL downloads for viruses! Don't trust anything out there... I also cannot guarantee that having these MSV* DLLs is legit without the visual-c environment, so I'm willing to remove them if they ask me to.

Now I get the VOMP interface (nice!) and radio works (yay!), along with keyboard commands, etc. My mpeg2 decoder is from the cyberDVD 4.0 and (as advertised) doesn't work, so I'm digging for a newer copy. so close!




cheers,

howzit,

thanks for the 2.4 fixes. esp rewind.

side effects for me:

  when navigating, the progress indicator frame shoes up, but the numbers
  and yellow percentage indicator are no longer visible.

  the quick jump feature, where pressing a number would jump to that
  number*10 percentage (e.g. 5 = 50%) into the program now just
  sends me to the start. I really got to liking that feature...

appreciating your efforts. dbm

FYI - vdr 1.3.43.

----- UPDATE ------

I didn't notice the previous conversation in the nearby "CVS compile errors" that appears to ID/address the same issue/symptoms. Anyone with similar issues may want to track that thread too.

tnx all.
