Browser crashes: flash10c.ocx camera enumeration bug.

[stardate]

Using your instructions I was able to fix my flash player on Windows Vista.

GraphEdit lists these video input sources:

1. AVerMedia, AVerTV WDM Video Capture (878)
File: ksproxy.ax

2. Enosoft Net DV Receiver
File: c:\Program Files\Enosoft\Enosoft DV Processor - Unlicensed\EnoNetDVRx.dll

3. Enosoft Net DV Transmitter
File: c:\Program Files\Enosoft\Enosoft DV Processor - Unlicensed\EnoNetDVTx.dll

4: Enosoft Virtual DV Renderer
File: c:\Program Files\Enosoft\Enosoft DV Processor - Unlicensed\EnoVirtualDVRenderer.dll

5. Enosoft Virtual DV Source
File: c:\Program Files\Enosoft\Enosoft DV Processor - Unlicensed\EnoVirtualDV.dll

6. Philips SPC 900NC PC Camera
File: ksproxy.ax (same as AverMedia Capture Device ?!)

After unregistering No. 5 (Enosoft Virtual DV Source - EnoVirtualDV.dll)
Flash was fine again.

So what's that?

Well, Enosoft's VirtualDV Package came bundeled with their excellent 'Enosoft DV Processor', which I use to convert DV - AVI files from type 1 to type 2, (without re-encoding) so MediaShow Espresso accepts them as 16:9 widescreen source, it does so only for type 2 DV-AVI files.

I think the bundled driver can be used to have a DV device act as video input source,
but I am not sure about that. See their website: (www.enosoft.net) The software is free for personal use.

It may very well be, that the software is coded properly, but something on my
windows effed it up. I contacted them anyway to report the issue.

After unregistering all Enosoft entries (2 - 5) the DV Processor software
(the part I use) still works, and so does Flash.

A big Thank You for helping me out.
I was thinking about installing Windows 7 on a separate partition
just to have flash working again. I guess, it has become that important
