View Full Version : VirtualDubMod 1_5_10_2_b2542 hangs

When I tried to run VirtualDubMod 1_5_10_2_b2542, it hung with the message that it couldn't find corona.dll.

I downloaded corona.dll and inserted one copy in system32 and another one in the VirtualDubMod directory. When launched, VirtualDubMod now hangs without any error message displayed.

For Corona, I used WinZip instead of Express Zip to unzip. I don't think that could make a difference.

I also cleaned the registry "aggressively".

Seems this software is touchy to install.

Yes this is a major bug in all VD(mod) releases. Switch to VD(Mpeg2)

The error message is mis-leading and this problem doesn't appear on all installs. I have the problem on two workstations, no fix so far.

Hi!Yes this is a major bug in all VD(mod) releasesThe error message is mis-leading and this problem doesn't appear on all installs.You appear to be contradicting yourself. Would you please be good enough clarify?

BTW, I've had no such problem with VirtualDubMOD...

What I am saying is that you will get a message saying that a DLL, I have seen three differents ones, but only one reported per install, is missing but that is not the problem. I am running VDmod on three workstations with no problems but on two others, I get that message. This problem has exsisted in the last few releases. There are other member posts about the same problem.

The problem disappeared when I used the VirtualDubmod version downloaded from the following site

Sorry to say that it didn't fix the problem. Message "Failed to load because "libmx.dll wasn't found" next message was a "Microsoft C++ Runtime Error".

Glad you got your's to work.
