strange behaviour of Picture II
Mhh I just created a presets that crashes my Winamp everytime, I activate full screen mode. :(

I wanted to use an effect list to load a picture and save it to a buffer. I then switched the list to be only activated one frame long wich gave me more speed in window mode but crashed winamp in full screen mode. I think the error occurs in the Picture II APE. I attached the file, so you can test it.

If it's not crashing the first time you swith to full screen, try it a second time.

Any Ideas?

:cry: . Not a clue, it crashed over here as well. No error messages, winamp just dies.

Seems to come from the DM.

Tests done with Winamp 2.91 (AVS 2.6):
* replace Picture II by Render/Picture : no changes.
* suppress all except Picture II : ok
* add some instructions in DM : OK !
* suppress instructions in DM : OK !!!

I suppose there is a little problem in DM. It must initialize something somewhere only when instructions are written. It stays after remove.

BTW is it normal that the Effect list input is set on Erase ?

Good luck !

PS : Nice girl, isn't it ? ;)

Seems to be the DM with me, I deleted everything but the DM, set to fullscreen and it freezes, I delete the DM set to fullscreen, it wokrs just fine.
Winamp 2.91 AVS 2.7PRE3

It's because the DM is empty, when you resize to fullscreen, it prolly tries to force re-init or something.

That figures with some tests I did later on.

And yes, it is a nice girl ;)
