VideoStudo 11+ installing Error - AVControlSDK A fatal error

Post by bigjim2k »

I Just got VideoStudo 11+ and while it was installing AVControlSDK , I got the "A fatal error has occurred whilst installing" error.

I had installed VideoStudo 10 back a month ago without issue. Whats the deal. Has Ulead gone down hill?

:cry:

I don't have an answer for you but if it makes you feel any better, I tried the install for the trial version of VS 11 and got the same message ("fatal error during installation") as you did.

Very frustrating! Very annoying!

Fatal error installing upgrade from CD FIX

Post by bigjim2k »

This works, try it.

I had the same problem you described only I was upgrading from V8 to V11 and I was using a CD. The install would put out a dialog box saying "installing avcontrolSDK Please wait" then a dialog would come up later saying fatal error. Following your input I did the following:
1)removed the VS 11 folder that was created in the first install attempt
2)copied my upgrade CD to disk
3)edit info.ini and change AVControlSDK=1 to 0
4)ran setup from the copy on disk
5)ran utilities\AVControlSDK\AVControl.exe from the copy on disk
Thanks again, my install looks successful.

I downloaded an upgrade for version 11 as an executable - for my 9 SE version. I am receiving the same error. Where would I find the info.ini file in an executable?

Thank you.

You need to unpack the .exe file. Winzip or a similar tool can do that. After editing info.ini you run the setup.exe instead of the file you downloaded.
