SWF Files error

[Namian]

Hello,

The only acceptable type of movie in OGAMA is SWF files. However, when I put such a video in my slides, I get this error:

Invalid pointer

Method name:ThrowExceptionForHR
Line: 0
Column: 0
Message: Invalid pointer

Source: DirectShowLib-2005
TargetSite: Void ThrowExceptionForHR(Int32)
StackTrace: at DirectShowLib.DsError.ThrowExceptionForHR(Int32 hr)
at Ogama.Modules.Recording.Presenter.DSScreenCapture.createGraph()

I would appreciate if someone could help me to solve this issue.
Thanks,

Unfortunately I'm also getting this error - I checked out the Ogama source this morning and upgraded it to Visual Studio 2017 (seems to have been built with 2010), so probably these issues are linked to that.

Unfortunately, it's hard to find the dependencies (wix + sandcastle) for 2010, so I was hoping I could just fix up the linkages and run as x86, but it hasn't made any difference.

Thank you for contacting me.

Hi, the swf and video support was experimental, so I do not recommend to use it.
Anyway: the invalid pointer message is due to the screen recorder DirectShow plugin I wrote to get a screen video from the recording session. Be sure that the compression codec is working. Use GraphEdit to see if the filter graph you are trying to construct works on your machine. Often the installing of KLite codecs helps.
