Error -1074395975 occurred at IMAQ AVI Read Frame DirectX has timed out readin

[Pier Paolo]

When i run the "Read AVI Example" on every kind of AVI file, I get the error:

Error -1074395975 occurred at IMAQ AVI Read Frame DirectX has timed out reading or writing the AVI file. When closing an AVI file, try adding an additional delay. When reading an AVI file, try reducing CPU and disk load.

The forums search gives two threads talking about this error:

Did you allready had a look at them?

[Pier Paolo]

yes thanks. 

I have windows 7 with the last version of labview and directX 11

I don't have a Windows 7 system to test this right now but it should work on Windows 7 according to this:  http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/10383

Do any AVIS throw this error?

If it' just with a specific AVI, what codec is used?

Did you also try to create an AVI in LabVIEW and then read it back? 

[Pier Paolo]

I can create an avi file but than I can't read it and I've the same error with every kind of avi files. 

[Christian Mergl]

I will setup a Windows 7 system to test this and post back then.

Hi Pier,

I setup a Win7 system now with LabVIEW 2009 and VDM 2009 and was able to run the Read AVI example without any errors.

Due to the fact that you cannot read AVIs in general, indipendent of the codec, I would suggest to repair the VDM on your system.

Does it mean I've to reinstall Labview or there is a fastest way?

[Christian Mergl]

As a first step I would simply "repair" NI Vision 2009 under Windows control panel.

I've just repaired my installation but I get the same error. I wonder if it's a directx problem.
