[QUOTE="Striper, post: 828927, member: 53014"] Hi All, This issue was causing me headaches, but I finally found the solution! I was triggered by someone who mentioned the mediainfo.dll file in the Antec VFD software folder. Because I probably have the same VFD (that comes with the Antec Fusion case), this file was also present on my system. It has nothing to do with the mediainfo.dll that MP uses, besides the name. Unfortunately the Antec version is registered as a COM interface in the registry and somehow MP uses this entry to access the mediainfo features. Long story short, after I deregistered the mediainfo.dll, MP did not crash anymore! I used this command from an elevated command prompt: [B] regsvr32 /u "C:\Program Files\Antec\VFD\mediainfo.dll"[/B] If you are still experiencing problems, try to search your registry (HKLM\Software branch) for "mediainfo" entries. Maybe there are more software companies using the mediainfo.dll name for their library... ;) Good luck! [/QUOTE]
