Hi, mgroen2

 

Hmm... it seems that something wrong in environment.

Could you, please, launch you test, pause it after 2-3 seconds click on the icon of vlc player in taskbar and copy the text. Maybe some errors will be there.

Hi AGubarev,

 

I did as you suggested, and now I got an error message.

The error message is displayed below.

    Hi  all,

     

    I did some investigation myself, and I can give you an update now. First of all: the positive news: I got it working! :) :)

     

    I was triggered specifically by this part in the error message:

     

    " x264 encoder error: height not divisible by 2 "

     

    the situation is that I am running TestComplete in a VM, which was not running on full screen, appearantly at a resolution which is not divided by 2. 

    What I did to resolve it, was running the VM in fullscreen mode, which lead to a screenresolution dividabe by 2 (even numbers).

     

    That did the job. So, now everything is working as expected.

     

    Thanks all for thinking with me.
