CDex 1.70 beta3 crashes here before it has actually started. I only get a 0xc0150002 (application failed to initialize). CDex 1.51 and 1.70 beta2 are OK.

Same here, Eric. However, it is only beta 3 that crashes. Installing beta 2  instead of 3 was fine.

I do not have Delrina sample rate conversion codec in my updated Windows XP Pro. SP3 system. Also, I have K-Lite Codec Full Pack v5.20 installed if that matters.

FYI, http://img7.imageshack.us/img7/9516/errorn.gif for a screen shot of the error.

Yes, that is what I get too with 1.70 beta3 (Windows XP Home Edition SP3).

The same problem has been reported for Vista:

Hello,

eric9002 there is a problem with older visual studio redistributable files, which are not equal with the files used during compilation of CDex.

Microsoft did make some security updates to Visual Studio in the past.

Could you try to install the file vcredist_x86.exe, which is the
Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Service Pack 1 Redistributable Package ATL Security Update

from
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=766a6af7-ec73-40ff-b072-9112bab119c2

More background information can be found here:
Description of the security update for Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Service Pack 1 Redistributable Package: July 28, 2009

Let me know, whether the installation will help you to start CDex.

I will prepare a version which will come with the needed files from Microsoft.

Thanks for your help, Georgy Berdyshev

Codingmaster: I think I already have that update? See http://img199.imageshack.us/img199/4316/screenshotb.gif … Is there a way to check?

Hi antdude,

thanks for your reply.

I did see in the screenshot that your update refers to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/973923

The link that I did provide above refers to:
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=973544

Although it is the same security issue: security bulletin MS09-035
The update provides more files, e.g. MFC which CDex relies on and they come with the update above.
You can verify that the update on your system has less files, by looking into the KB articles.

Let me know about the update.

Thanks in advance, Georgy Berdyshev

Hi,

I have checked and confirm the bug with a clean Windows XP SP2 installation.

Installing the vcredist_x86.exe, which was mentioned above resolves the problem.

Thanks for the swift response, George. It's OK now.
BTW, will you make available a ZIP package?

Sorry for the late reply. I tried beta 4 and confirmed working. Thanks all! :)

Cdex 1.7.0 beta4 has Error in Tag! In Settings i have ID3v1 and ID3v2.3.  Result is ID3v2.4 (ID3v1 ID3v2.4)
Sorry i speak German.

Hello I've seen this software used to add WAV header to MP3 for embedding into PpowerPoint.  Is there a Mac equvalent I can use to do this same thing?

Thanks
