Missing MSVCR120.dll

Issue #3 resolved
Tobias Ulrich created an issue

When I build for Windows the following message appear: "The program can't start because MSVCP120.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem." I think its something related with Microsoft Visual Studio.

Types of videos: .avi and mp4 I tried to use your example and don't work when I test the project in Game Maker. I want to export for Linux and Windows;

    Okay, the missing MSVCP120.dll is a missing Visual Studio run-time DLL, which I can package into the video player. I'll do a new version with that added in shortly.

    Google Drive seems to be down for me here at the moment so I can't see the Ubuntu error images. I'll check again in a bit - but I don't suppose you can embed the images in this thread?

    "video player error -1" means the player has been unable to open the video file you asked it to play. Generally the best way to deal with this is to add the file as an Included File in the GameMaker IDE and play it using:

    cttVideoStart(working_directory + "myvideofile.mp4");
    

    I'm still having a look into how the other issue could happen. It looks a bit like what I'd expect if you called cttVideoDraw before cttVideoStart, but I'm not totally sure yet.

    I solved the Linux problem. It was the profile of video format and that you had said. I will check again the problem with Windows. Thanks for your quick comment :)

    Hi again - I've uploaded a new Windows version to the marketplace that should have the missing DLLs. Let me know if it fixes the issue for you or if there is more I need to do!
