I just installed TCPMP 0.66
(the developers have dropped the letter suffix on the current version
) on my MP790, and had a learning experience. I got an error message when I tried to load a video: "GAPI: GAPI not supported on this device. Try a different driver!"
(I didn't know that GAPI was not supported on the MP790. Does that mean I can't play Doom on it? [Haven't tried yet.]
) I bug reported, and Picard told me to use the GDI driver for video, but suggested that it might not work quite as well as GAPI would on a supported device. But video was fine with the GDI driver.
Thought I should give MP790 users a heads-up in case some of them aren't aware of this small issue.
Well, now I'm trying to do the same thing on my 790, but I'm so lame when it comes to video that I don't know what he means.
Can someone clarify, please? What is GDI? Where do I get it? Where do I put it?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanx,
Kirk
