StandbyWatcher - avoids standby while something is recorded on vista ::V1.1 released! (2 Viewers)

I've also tried that same result or similar... i'll recompile it on my own and see what happens

OK I've recompiled the code and places my actual .dlls in the source but i still get the following error, when i'm in the config setup - starting the .exe works fine i see the tray icon except when i try to configure it.

Had any other similar error with the StandbyWatcher?

Have you a special MP installation?

MoPhat only yeah my MP Version but there are no changes which can result in this issue. On my Laptop (Vista x86) your tool runs fine (no MP installed but it gives no error) but it does not on my MP TV-Server Machine (Vista 64)...

do you have any idea how to debug this error? I'm not so familiar with C# development.

 

[MoPhat]

AHA 64Bit!!!.... wusste ichs doch

You can use in visual studio the compile flag for compiling in 32/64bit mode, try the 64er one.

i'll write you a PM... so i don't spam the thread...

 

[disaster123]

OK it's now running fine for me - no error Message any longer. If you want that your app also runs under Vista 64 you've to explicit build it for x86 cause the MP .dll files are also only for x86 - otherwise your app runs in 64bit mode and cannot load 32bit dlls under vista 64.

See for example:
System.BadImageFormat Exception


Thanks for your great app and thanks for sharing the code.

Hi one problem i still have - do you have any idea how to use your plugin in parallel with the keyboard input plugin? Cause keyboard input plugin does also use a keyboard hook and standbywatcher doesn't seem to receive the key presses - when keyboard input plugin is active.
