#Windows error
5 messages in this thread
I made a morph in AVI format, and opened Media Player to play it (I tried it
both insided ER and outside ER). I keep getting an error message only on
ER-produced AVI files, as follows:
Application Error
MMTASK caused a General Protection Fault in
module MSVIDEO.DLL at 0008:16C8
I don't get this error with other AVI files, including the included morph
PRES.AVI. I don't get this message on FLC-saved files, either.
Can you tell me what the problem might be?

AVI files only play at some sizes. Is this one 160×120 or 320×240?

What resolution did you out put the.avi as? If you dod something other than
320×240 or 160×120, chances are it will be unplayable – this is a cross between
the compression codecs and media player problem that causes odd sized .avis to
be unplayable.

That was the problem. Funny how after making AVI images and reading computer
and graphics magazines for years I have never heard of this shortcoming.
Thanks,

Such is life with windows. MS never tells about the problems, and of course
anyone will write a glowing review just to get published, based on that
marketing hype from MS.
