mala custom spot in layout fails to load

<< < (2/3) > >>

joebells:
ok it seems to be just my nes list and just on certain games. When I am scrolling through the list it will throw up the error at certain games. Like magic darts (j) and such I am guessing its a problem with the picture itself which is in png format(all the nes pictures are in png format) but once again the pictures load fine in the ms picture viewer and paint and such. I didn't create these picture either they were downloaded from the no intro screenshot archive.

The error message says unexpected error has occured mala will shut down now or something pretty close to that.

Heres the log entry

2007/02/24  09:31:03.29   Error: Object Class: TTimer, Object Function: LoadPicture, Exception Class: EAccessViolation, Exception Message: Zugriffsverletzung bei Adresse 004BB964 in Modul 'MaLa.exe'. Lesen von Adresse 022FD000


edit: ok I checked the offending png's in ifranview and it seems to have a problem with png's with 32bits of color most of the png's have 8 bits of color but there are some in there with 32 and thats seems to be the ones that it crashes on.

swindus:
This is a known error:

You have to convert/resave the snaps which trigger this error.

joebells:
32bit png's are corrupt png's? The png's open in anything else?

swindus:
No, not 32bit png's at all. But the 32bit png's in the NES,SNES snap collections.

Sure its also a MaLa problem but I don't know how to fix it because I use a third party component for the png files.

joebells:
Ah ok. Hope I didn't sound ungrateful for the free frontend as I appreciate it.

I do have one other problem though.  :o  I bought the new microsoft wireless gaming reciever to use my wireless xbox 360 controllers. And it works fine until I walk away for a while and the controllers shut off to save batteries. When I turn them back on mala doesn't recognise them I have to restart mala for it to recognise them again. Would there be a way to have mala poll periodically for a controller or something similar? Maybe its just an issue with the way ms setup the driver or something?
