Video Encoding fails in newest release #91

Closed SoOlditHurts closed 1 year ago

SoOlditHurts commented 1 year ago

Downloaded the new release (20230130.1) and did a Race Capture, NOT using Fast Video Recording. It completed successfully. When I then attempted to do the Video Encoding, it starts but fails with" ERROR: Could not load file or assembly 'StandardOverlays, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies. Operation is not supported. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131515)".

I then did a Video Encode on the files produced in the previous step, using the last version 20220606.1. It completed the Video Encoding successfully. I've attached the general.log file for the failed attempt. general.log

Please double-check whether you expanded the PlugIns subdirectory as well and that there is a plugins folder contains the following files. I just unzipped the latest release and the files are definitely there. grafik

If the files are there please go to "Configure General" and select a different overlay. Does it not work with all the different overlays? Or just not with the Standard-Overlay?

did a quick test on my side - doesn't seem to work with any type of overlay. Will have to do more detailed analysis - will not be able to do that before weekend.

I noticed the YamlDotNet.dll files between versions don't match in size so I decided to run a test. I replaced the StandardOverlays directory from 2023 with the one from 2022. Then Video Encoding works. Just more info for you.

Seems to work when compiled in the VSS-IDE but not using the DevOps Pipeline.

MerlinCooper commented 1 year ago

Can confirm that it only failes if the artefacts are compiled using the Azure DevOps pipeline. Don't have any explanation at the moment - do hope that somebody at "stackoverflow" can help

@SoOlditHurts Found the root-cause for the failure. The assembly doesn't load due to microsoft security features. Very likely my directories I use when working with VisualStudio are unblocked by default.

Don't have a solution at the moment but as a temporary containment action you can manually unblock the dll's provided. You need to do that for every DLL. grafik
