api-ms-win-core-path-l1-1-0.dll missing

[Equax]

Hello,

trying with Portable and Install Version on Windows 7, the app will not start showing an error popup that api-ms-win-core-path-l1-1-0.dll is missing.

Are there any pre-requisits?

Thanks Kevin

Which version is this?

[elibroftw]

@Equax try reinstalling the latest version.

[Equax]

I tried both 5.1.18 and 5.1.19, and get the same error.

[elibroftw]

Install the last 4.X version

You'll have to manually disable auto-update from settings.json.

If you encounter any bugs, you'll have to install python3.8 32-bit, git, an IDE (e.g. vscode), and built the 32-bit branch, https://github.com/elibroftw/music-caster/wiki/Developer-Guide.

I'm closing this, but feel free to comment if you have any more questions.

Thanks this version does work, but I can't, for the life of me, find out how to cast the music. Is there no button to choose an output device?

[elibroftw]

You can right click the tray icon, and the select the device. Watch the demo if you are still confused.

I didn't find a tray icon, but I found the issue. Because the icon is monocolor white+transparent, it looked like it there was no tray icon at all. But it is there, just hidden in the white background.

All good now and I have to say I'm impressed by the low latency, anything plays almost immediately on my home speaker! Will continue to explore the app :)

Yeah I'm not going to be changing anything to fix that bug, just move the icon out of the tray
