comskip crash on start

[etheesdad]

When I double click on Comskip.exe I get:

"the application failed to inistalize properly... click OK to terminate"

I had comskip running fine on my XP machine with Mediaportal. Ive recently changed to vista and it crashes on startup.

Im using a fresh install using comskip80_007.zip

I read the readme and it says to use the 'always allow' in vista, but I dont get that option when I run comskip.exe manually. (it just crashes, so I guess it doesnt get to that point)

Code: Select all

<bump> ... hello...? Anyone?

Could you first try to use an older version as possibly the right C runtime library is missing.
I have used VC++ 6.0, VC++ 8.0 and VC++ 9.0 compilers and I don't know which one for which version

thankyou. I cnaged from c++ 2005 to 2008 version and it fixed the problem.
