[George2]

Hello everyone,

I am using Windows Vista x86 + VSTS 2008. When creating new Windows Media Encoder object using statement

WMEncoder encoder = new WMEncoder();

My program always crash in VSTS 2008. Here is the screen snapshot. Any ideas what is wrong?

The hotfix seems describing the issue I met with -- crash when creating new encoder object instance, but when I install the hot fix, after installation successful from installation wizard, the Wmenceng.dll DLL versions are still 9.0.0.2980, not 9.0.0.3352. Any ideas what is wrong?

On Vista, how to check whether I have installed Security Update for Windows Media Encoder (KB954156)? I open program and feaures from control panel, and could only see installed programs, and can not see any security update information.
