Latest patch and Film Viewer
« on: January 09, 2019, 01:37:40 AM »
Since last patch(had an error on patch as mentioned in other recent posts) my film viewer wont respond after selecting a film. It just sits and then says unresponsive

Funny: I was going to say it works fine as the film I recorded this morning worked fine. However, it occurred to me to test the few older ones and the film viewer stopped working. To confirm that it's an issue with older films I just recorded a shortie but lo and behold that one crashed too.

The viewer must be a woman.

Can't load films either.

Does it correlated with the patch failure on htdlg.res?
