| Bumping this because TheoraPlayer works fine on my 32-bit Win 7 home computer, but not my 64-bit Win 8.1 office computer. I compiled and tested it at home and it worked. Then I simply copied the module to my office computer and it didn't work. I also tried recompiling on my office computer. I'm not getting any compilation errors, but when I try to run Example_01, I get an Exception_Access_Violation. In Debug mode, it also highlights this line: bmx_TheoraVideoManager_update(managerPtr, timeIncrease)That's all it does. I looked through the source and can't see anything wrong, but maybe there's something about Win 8.1? I tried running both the Release and Debug versions with Win 7 compatibility mode and it did not help. :( |

| I guess no one else is using this?  At least, not on Windows 8? |

| In case anyone is reading this, problem in Windows 8 seems to have something to do with OpenAL.  If I comment out the "manager.setAudioInterfaceFactory" line in example_01, the video part works. |

| You should try updating OpenAL dlls. https://github.com/OpenRA/OpenRA/issues/6508 |

| Well, that would explain it.  Went on a long goose chase before commenting out that line.  Now I have to find that dll... Thanks! |

| Turns out to have been incompatible versions of things. I was unaware of newer versions of modules for vanilla BMX at github.com/maxmods. |
