MP randomly chrashing (1 Viewer)

[Remoteglen]

Hi guys

I hope someone can shed some light on whats going on.

I will finish watching a show or a movie and when I select something else to watch MP crashes.

It appears to be random.

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards

Glen

Hi again Glen

Any help would be appreciated.

As always, check the Windows application event log. You'll find:

Note the faulting module name ffdshow.ax (ie. the ffdshow video or audio codec), and the exception code c0000005 (access violation exception). In other words: it's ffdshow's fault, not MP's.

To resolve, try one or more of:

1. Update ffdshow.
2. Use different codecs.
