Title: Skuzzy, Film Viewer problems
Post by: Banshee7 on March 23, 2010, 07:52:57 PM

After I reinstalled AH, I am no longer able to watch other people's films.  It pops up a box saying the application was not found.  Any ideas?

I don't know how you do it but I've never been able to open it from my downloads.  I have to open film viewer first and then open the file from within the film viewer.

Sounds likes the file association isn't set right.  Windows isn't realizing that .ahf should open with the viewer.  Go to one of the films and right click, go to properties, and set the "open with", hit apply and ok.  Should work then, if not I'm out of ideas. :)

As and edit: the 'open with' you need to go to the AH folder and select the film viewer...in case it wasn't obvious. :p

That fixed it.  The "Open with" was not set to ahfilm.exe.  I'm slow, I know :/

Starting the film viewer itself (going and clicking the menu shortcut) re-establishes the file associations. Simply start it, close it, and then you can double click the files individually.
