IMAQ AVI Read/Write example is generating a Program Error.

[cmiranda]

I'm trying to read/write an avi file using the example provided in the NI website. I have bought the AVI library from Alliance Vision. However, when I try to read or write a file i get "LabVIEW.exe has generated errors and will be closed by Windows. You will need to restart the program."

Any solutions?

I searched in our internal database as well as asking around the group and we have not seen this error happening before with the AVI example in our website. Since the error is given by labview.exe it may be some memory leak or version incompatibility that cannot be handled by LV and is crashing, however LV should not crash in that way since it is not its normal behaviour. My suggestion is that you contact first Alliance Vision since you purchase the library from them, check with their support staff the system requirements and software versions. If you still encounter problems then you may want to give us a call, you will find the details on www.ni.com/ask in order to contact us.
