mhwarner Posted February 21, 2017 Report Share Posted February 21, 2017 Not sure where this should go since it isn't about a beta version but the new release. I downloaded and installed according to the defaults (on Win10 home). My last beta install was Beta 14 and I allowed the install to copy my settings from there. The program loaded and attempted to play the automatic video that loads at the initial install. All I got was the frame and a black square in the middle. It never loaded and I received the following error: Exception EAssertionFailed in module PicturesToExe.Exe at 0000AE1F. I had to let Windows shut down the program and restarted it. It opened fine but the video did not display this time (I assume it only displays on the first install). I loaded the "Sample Project" and it displayed just fine.

Please can you try to open this video (a demo project) again? In the main menu > Help > click "Welcome demo". Does it work now? "Welcome demo" was available on first run in all versions of PTE during last 10 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhwarner Posted February 21, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2017 It does seem to work Ok from "Help\Welcome screen". It has always worked in previous beta versions when I first loaded the program after installation. Not sure why it didn't this time. Thanks for the quick reply.

Igor Posted February 22, 2017 Report Share Posted February 22, 2017 Hi, Please can you uninstall PTE 9 and install it again as you did it earlier? Will that problem occur again? Thanks in advance, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhwarner Posted February 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2017 Hi Igor, Sorry not to respond sooner. I was busy taking pictures at the Grand Canyon and had no internet connection. I uninstalled PTE 9 and then reinstalled the latest version 9.01. I did not experience the same issue. The demo show loaded and played properly immediately upon first open, so whatever the problem was, it seems to be resolved. Thanks for being so responsive!

Igor Posted February 27, 2017 Report Share Posted February 27, 2017 Thanks for the confirmation! We modified the code of PicturesToExe to provide better stability. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
