Hi Francis,

I don't think it is a matter of LiveCode but of the used Video Codecs/Filters. 
Could it be, that some videos are encoded with different codecs and they are 
not installed on the windows machine?

Betreff: Video files not showing on my PC (LiveCode 5.5)

Hi from Beautiful Brittany,

LiveCode 5.5 (I know, I can't afford the updates - Am I the only one ?) Sierra 
10.12.3

On my Mac, I have successfully run Audio and Video functions
(Quicktime)  MP3 for Audio, MP4/Mov for Video, for some years.

Recently moving the app to PC (Windows 7, with Quicktime loaded), all my Audio 
files work fine, and MOST of the videos work fine also.
But a few Video files play the audio but DO NOT SHOW the Video (screen is 
blank).

I notice that the files which do not run correctly are quite big, sometimes 
MP4, sometimes Mov (no obvious reasons). Otherwise - Mystery !!

My scripts have run a thousand times on Mac, but just the strange glitches 
(with larger Video files MP4/Mov PERHAPS ?) on the PC.

I can send scripts if necessary.

Any ideas ? - Any 5.5 users still out there, somewhere ...... ?

-Francis

Subsiduary question : I bought 5.5 Mac (years ago) and I am happy with it.
Am I authorised to load the 5.5 PC version with the same Password ? It could 
help me to isolate this problem ………

Long Live LiveCode

-Francis
