[RESOLVED] PBX 2.11 gerneral Problems ...

**stefanaustria** · January 14, 2016

Hi,

since the last Version, i cant see my PF Videos ( only if i run with compatibility mode with "Vista" ),

and sometimes my next Wheels dont load next Images/Tables, looks like there are no more Wheel - Images and out of Tables ...

Is there a fix on the way ?

**Tom Speirs** · January 14, 2016

I don't think it needs a fix to PinballX. It sounds more like there are issues with your system. I suspect you accidently installed a bad codec pack.

ie. its you. Although I can't be sure as you provided very little information such as no log file or what version you upgraded from.

If you reply to this topic please read the page full of text about how to provide support files etc.

Thanks.

Tom

**stefanaustria** · January 14, 2016

I updated from 2.05, and i never used any Codecs before, because i wanted to run my Cab-System without "Sharky" or others ...

I am away for some days, so i cant give you some Files.

But its curious with the "Vista" compatibility ... there should be a reason for that.

... whatever, PBX is great.

**Draco1962** · January 14, 2016

Difficult to say since we don't have your pinballx.ini and log.txt files to review. I am on Win 10 and have never had to put anything in Vista compatibility mode. You will want to install the LAV filters from here.

When you get back to your cab, please click on the PinballX How to ask for help link in my signature for instructions on where to find the files we need and submit them for review.

**stefanaustria** · January 14, 2016

Short at home, here are my Files, thanks Guys.

Thanks Draco, maybe later, i ll test the LAV ... but, i wonder, also Videos runs without, specialy before ...

And Backglass Videos run, only PF not

If you are using PBXrecorder then you will want to use LAV. PBX captures videos in the full color range for better quality. Many codecs don't handle full color range videos, but LAV does.

**stefanaustria** · January 14, 2016

No Recorder, no Codecs ... only VP and PinballX, all runs fine until now.

I want to keep away any Codecs ... then i was really happy with prev. Versions,

which could play Videos without Shark ... and now i have to use LAV Codec ?

**Tom Speirs** · January 15, 2016

I was trying to explain but nothing has changed in PinballX since version 2.05 that affects codecs as far as I am aware. I am not convinced the issue is due to a change in PinballX.

Can you confirm a previous version works?

**stefanaustria** · January 16, 2016

What i can remember, 2.05 works ... and without Codecs, but i will give it a chance with LAV,

also havent a Problem, to run it with compat. mode "Vista" ... just would inform you.

**Draco1962** · January 16, 2016

I would recommend ditching compatibility with Vista. The only thing that you need to set is to allow PinballX to Run as administrator.

**stefanaustria** · January 16, 2016

Thanks Draco, but always, since 2014, it run as admin, i had this "Vista" tip from here: http://www.gameex.info/forums/topic/17135-resolved-no-videos-in-204

Maybe i have Forget to "install" as admin, but this cant be the reason (?) ...

Edit: whatever, i installed it again - as admin - with the new 2.12, and the vids are here ... in my case, done

Thanks Guys.

**Draco1962** · January 17, 2016

I think there may have been some confusion with how I worded my response. What was meant to be said was that applying Run as administrator setting via the Compatibility options is requiet since Windows Vista.

It wasn't meant to encourage anyone to change compatibility to Vista.

**stefanaustria** · January 19, 2016

Hi again, about the Videos all run fine now, but later i had the Problem with the Wheel Images again ... sometimes,

they comes to an End, and i cant "scroll" to next/prev. Tables because there arent anymore ... Quit and Restart PBX helps ...

I can upload a Screen later when i am at home ...

Is there a Way to try and download prev. PBX Versions ? Because i had no Problems with 2.05 ... but i updated from-to 2.11/.12 ...

**Draco1962** · January 19, 2016

Please provide updated pinballx.ini and log.txt files. Also, you need to make sure that you are not using Vista compatibility as I previously noted.

**stefanaustria** · January 19, 2016

Hi Draco, thanks for offer your help, here are the Files,

now i scrolled very fast through Tables, Played a Table, then Exit, scrolled again fast, to my surprise, every Wheel/Images Comes,

but then PBX Crashed ... i wonder, in Pinballx.ini, at lastselected, the last Table is double-named, thats normal ?

Edit: ok, i had the "compat. mode: vista" active - now the same: Admin, no compat. mode, Videos dont Play ( just Backglassvideos: yes ) ...

If i backup "Config, Databases and Media", then i can try a deinstall / reinstall ?

Just one Thing: at least i had 2.05 - later i installed Python and P-ROC, then i thought "ok, also update PBX to latest" ... as i said from 2.05 direct to 2.12 ...

Also got all Win Updates ... and then i realized the "no PF Videos Error" ...

Or can you provide me 2.05 for a Test ?

PinballX.ini

log.txt

**Draco1962** · January 19, 2016

Unfortunately I can't provide any versions prior to the current release. That would be up to Tom if he feels that it is prudent to do so.

**sigma415** · January 20, 2016

Stefan, here the 2.05

https://www.dropbox.com/s/u7gmrb1ksm9rxgb/pinballxsetup_v2.05.zip?dl=0

**gtxjoe** · January 21, 2016

Did you install LAV as suggested a couple of times?

**stefanaustria** · January 21, 2016

No i also had not LAV before ... had 2.05 without any Codecs ... PF Videos ok.

After installed PinballX 2.11 over 2.05, later i wonder, why not comes PF Videos, just Backglassvideos are started.

I am a bit frustrated, really dont know if the Problem at PBX or my System, and why ... checked more things, GPU Driver,

Videos only starting well (outside PBX) ...

Tryed it also with deinstall / new 2.05 ... to my surprise: the same, no PF videos.

(at deinstall, couldnt delete Flash.ocx, renamed it to _old, before new install)

To dont lose my Pinball Fun, now i just renamed all my Media/...Videos Folder, and am happy enough with Images only atm.

Maybe i will try 2.12 and LAV at Weekend, but i think, LAV isnt the missing one, because it worked before too.

Thanks i.a. for any Help to solve this

**stefanaustria** · January 22, 2016

Got it, deinstalled all, new installed 2.12, installed LAV ... done.

Maybe anything was wrong in my prev. installations / updates.

Thanks Guys.

**Draco1962** · January 22, 2016

Got it, deinstalled all, new installed 2.12, installed LAV ... done.
Maybe anything was wrong in my prev. installations / updates.
Thanks Guys.

Glad to hear you got it working!
