Ulead must hire me / Unspecified error fix

rasta · Post by **rasta** » Fri Mar 30, 2007 6:09 pm

Hi

for those of you who get "unspecified errors" read below:

after trying for days to make DVDMF 6 work, the fix came when less expected. installed media studio pro AFTER DVDMF 6 and the unspecified errors in MF6 were gone!

It seems like MF6 uses a older library (mpgmux.dll ver. 1.1.1.64) and media studio uses ver. 1.1.1.66 so installing it over solved the problem for me.

I know it¡¬s weird a newer program uses an older library but that¡¬s the way it is.

I hope Ulead has an explanation for this.

My installation of MovieFactory 6 Plus is using
mpgmux.dll version 1.1.1.135 dated 1/18/2007 246kbytes and is llocated in the common files/ulead systems/mpeg directory
When I installed it there wasn't a ulead systems directory so it's the clean install (I hope

)

George W and Vidoman:

Ok seems like you got the right one, Do you still have "Unspecified errors"?

thanks

Great, you stumbled onto a specific fix to an unspecified error

It's quite obvious that your "fix" does not apply to all systems the same way as the problem did not occur on all systems either.

I'm glad you found a work around for your problem though. Let's hope it will help others with this problem also.

I think it is a common problem where one piece of software over writes an existing dll with a different version and causes problems.

In fact I posted one such 'fix' only a couple of days ago
Fix: Import DVD (VOB) Files DMF/VS/MSP

I have previously remarked about how the installation sequence can make different computers 'different' to another seemingly identical computer

What are you doing that generated Unspecified errors

I WAS having "Unspecified Errors" as many, before.

During installation it looks like some computers are having a problem with the programs in the "Utilities" Directory.
I guess this is all part of the installation script file.
