Hi Phillip, Still crashing though?.. that's not good. I'll try and work on that. It runs for hours on Linux without problems (that's the machine I have with the most disk space so it's where I record our meetings). Something about Windows or windows-specific code, or GTK under Windows ... Derek Phillips, Joseph wrote:

Thanks for the quick help Derek- it worked! It seems to be working fine now. The program has still crashed twice during playback since I made the switch to GTK 2.8.9, but it doesn't seem to be a regular thing like before. Thanks again- looking forward to more of your additions in the future!

Hi Phillip,

I was able to recreate the problem on a windows machine (AGVCR appeared to lock up after 16 minutes), and it was running GTK 2.6.10 as a runtime. I then removed GTK 2.6 and installed GTK 2.8.9 (the latest available Windows installer) and re-tried the test in the same venue (Venue Client didn't even get shut down between tests) and AGVCR has been running fine for over 45 minutes and still going as I write this email, so I would suggest trying GTK 2.8.9 to see if it helps you too. I think I will need to update the Windows GTK runtime to 2.8 and possibly put a note on the website. Given the apparent GTK bug with AGVCR running on GTK 2.6 I may even move to compiling the Windows build against 2.8 to make it 'compulsory' to use 2.8.

We've been attempting to use AGVCR 1.5.9 for video feedback in our medical simulation center, but the application window seems to go blank and lock up after letting it run for more than 10 minutes or so. Invariably, the file that was being recorded when the application crashed can't be played back later, even after restarting. We're using a WindowsXP (formerly InSors) machine with a Videum capture card and four cameras. If we can get it working, we'd like to use it for recording our sim debriefings as well, including the playback or the earlier recording. Has anyone tried using AGVCR to record playback streams from AGVCR on another machine? It seems like it should work, right? Any help or advice is greatly appreciated- thanks!
