Default BS Player does not start

I believe i saw a previous thread in here where people were having similar problems, except I think it was for previous version. I am a first time user of this, so I don't know anything about it, but I installed the latest BSplayer offered on the site and when I double click on the BSPlayer icon nothing happens. I push ctrl+alt+delete and it shows bplay running in the background, but nothing shows up on my screen. Any help? The previous thread i saw was: http://forum.bsplayer.org/viewtopic....23361161501378 I didn't quite understand it and what debug mode is, but maybe you can help me with this? I did actually try installing this b4 but it had the same problem so I uninstalled it. I think that was a month ago. Around the same time I think I tried zoomplayer with the exact same problem. I am running Win98SE, 733 mhz..if you need any other specs, tell me and I'll post em.

I just wanted to bring this thread back alive, because nobody had replied. Anybody know how to help me with this at all? I noticed there are a few others with similar problems when searching the boards, but none of them had found a real solution. Any help plz!?

DEbug mode is a version who generates logs.
See the 494 version.
Have you tryed to press the "H" key to unhide the player ? Maybe, somehow it hides itself ?

Pushing H doesn't do anything. I just tried it. When I push alt and tab down, it doesn't show as one of the programs either. It just shows up on task manager as Bplay. Nothing else. I am gonna look into the debug mode.

Do you have installed Norton Antivirus?, turn off "Auto-Protect" and BSplayer will start.

Default Same Problem

Just to keep this thread alive as well. I have this problem as well. I had originally installed this and it worked fine. Then my system hard drive crashed necessitating a reformatting and reinstallation of all my programs. However, BSplayer did not initially work. Then I installed a few more of my original programs and then it worked. Unfortunately, I have had another crash of my system requiring yet another reformate and reinstallation. Now the BSplayer is no longer working again. I don't know which program I installed to set the conditions right to get this program working again. I have Windows 98SE. Installation isn't a problem. I just can't get it to start up. All I see on the Ctrl+Alt+Del window is "Bplay". I have had the opportunity to use this program and really like it above all the others that I have tried. I would really love to use this program again.

Hmm, I am going to try this now. That may very well be the problem. I'll disable auto-protect and try it after I reinstall bsplayer. Thanks for the info Simon!

Hey Simon, I just tried it out and I am still having the same problem. When you say turn off auto-protect, do you mean stop it from starting up or do you mean I need to right click on the icon in the lower right hand corner and click on Disable Auto Protect? I did the second way and I still have the same problem with it.

I have the same problem. I downloaded debug 499 and
tried it, but it didnt even manage to generate a log
(it crashes too early, maybe?)

OTH, debug version 493 worked fine in win98, but
the "normal" version 493 didn't.

Default Where would the log file be generated

I have the same problem as stated in the above posts. I have downloaded the debug version and I can not seem the locate the log file. Where would the log file be generated? In the same folder? If so, then there isn't a log file generated with this particular problem. Thanks for the help.

Default If that is the case...

If the log file is supposed to be in the BSPlayer file, then the stall occurs before any log file can be generated. I see that someone else has noted the same thing. If the player gets hung up prior to starting and prior to the ability to create a log file and still appears on the list of programs running when using Ctrl+Alt+Del, what could be the problem with Windows 98SE that would do this to a program?

So all I do is use the latest version of bsplayer and then copy the exe and dll file from the latest nightly debug build to the bsplayer directory to use the debug version? Then I find the log somewhere in the bsplayer directory and post it in an attachment so you can take a look at it?
