Crashing program.

[pjd]

Hi,
I have a game Everlong. On a clean wine install it crashes at a certain stage of the game with a dialogue box saying: OLE Error 80004002. This seems to be because wine doesn't like mp3s. Running winetricks allcodecs seems to fix this problem. However when the screen goes dark soon after the program crashes. It seems to be something to do with quartz.dll. I would upload the crashlog of the program with the mp3 fix and a save set just before the crash happens but I don't know how to attatch files to a forum post.

This game is very old looking. It runs, if you skip the Prelude (intro movie) by choosing option 2 from the game's startup screen. And I can run it in a wine desktop. The graphics are blocky and 2D.

I can confirm that the screen does go dark when you choose to view the Prelude. The sound plays for a while then the wine desktop becomes unresponsive and has to be closed. I am up too late to debug now.

The crashing video is Movie/Logo.avi
$ ffmpeg -i Movie/Logo.avi

There is nothing special about the movie except it is an incredibly cheesy 14 seconds of wasted time. Totem plays it just fine. It does not even use mp3 encoding. Wine should be able to play it. ffplay plays it, too. Wine's msvideo1 decoder is based on ffmpeg.

At least it's a free download with no nags if anyone else wants to try it.

I think we have enough info for a bug report, but there may already be one.

The prelude is not the problem (just skip it).
The problem comes later when I continue from this save http://www.sdunning.dsl.pipex.com/Save01.lsd
the error log is here http://www.sdunning.dsl.pipex.com/stderr.txt

[hellork]

This may be a regression. A git bisect from 1.1.34 should reveal the offending patch.

If you can do that it would be appreciated.

In the meantime, use native quartz.

native quartz means the program fails to start with a dialogue box "unable to use DirectShow."

The error output is

I am using WINE 1.1.42 on Arch Linux. I am now trying to do a git bisect.[/code]

I enabled winetricks heapcheck and the saved game works, but I get a lot of these:

err:heap:GlobalFree (0xf12a): Page fault occurred ! Caused by bug ?

thanks for the information.

recompiling wine to include mpg123 and using native quartz works.
Thanks for the help
