Title: MaLa crashing on switching game lists
Post by: valiant on May 30, 2009, 04:15:27 am

Hi

I've had a look at my error log and the last event which causes it to crash is switching game lists.  Any ideas what may be causing it?  I have about 10 lists, and it steps through 3 or 4 OK and then crashes.

It works OK if I switch the videos off and run on snaps instead in my layout.  I have the right codecs installed.

It's driving me mad!  It looks great with the videos on, but I have to disable this to enable the cabinet to be used  :'(

Well, I seem to have narrowed the problem down - my layout is horizontal and some of the videos are vertical, which it doesn't like.

Remove these (which are all grouped in the one list by chance) and the lists can be scrolled through.

Any way of getting around this?

Have you tried version 1.62?

Nope - did manage to solve the problem by changing the size of the video with VirtualDub.

I'd like to try 1.62 - where can I get it from?  The latest version on the website is my version (1.05)
