slide show does stop after few slides

Post by wdehaene » Mon Apr 11, 2016 9:45 pm

dear

i made a show with at a certain point a video cue in parallel with an image cue with multiple file as a slide show. There are two external screens in the game.
The slide show contains ca 60 slides with a total size of 50 MByte. After a few slides the show stops saying "Cue not loaded (Auto)". I can click each file separately to keep things going but that is of course no real solution. slide time is 2s. The slides run continously. There is not transition. I have second slide show in this file which is smaller and has now problem.
I use SCS 11.2.5 under windows 7

Is this a bug? Is there a work around? I can make a cue per slide but that is tedious.

kind regards,

wim

Which Video Playback Library do you have selected under Options / Video Driver? If you have TVG selected then try changing this to xVideo. Then click OK and close and restart SCS. If you already have xVideo selected then please email me a diagnostic file. You can create this file by selecting 'Create Diagnostic File' from the drop-down menu displayed when you click the Help button in the main window. The file will be saved in a folder named "SCS Diagnostics" under "Documents" or "My Documents". (As you're using a version of SCS 11 prior to 11.3 then the diagnostic file will be saved in a folder named "SCS Dumps".)

Dear mike

here is another dump file. I think is stopped the show too soon in the other one. I saw the problem coming but it was not there yet.
In the last one the slide show was really stuck

kind regards,

wim

I can't see anything obviously wrong from those diagnostic files, so I've emailed you details of a tracing version to run.
