Hi everybody, This is becoming more complicated, each digging brings back more mud. @CYCho : let's resume (again) the different steps we've been through since yesterday : 1) With line : _IEAction ($myIE_Obj, "refresh") It worked with AutoIt 3.3.14.5, it doesn't work with 3.3.16.0, fatal console error being : While $oPlayer.playState <> $iPlaying While $oPlayer^ ERROR 2) Instead, with this line : _IEAction ($myIE_Obj, "scrollintoview") It seems to work fine in 3.3.16.0, that's how you scripted the new version of zPlayer 3.0.2.5 and put it online a few hours ago. 3) Unfortunately, though it apparently works, it didn't really solve the issue if we look at AutoIt Console : --> IE.au3 V3.1-0 Error from function _IEAction(scrollintoview), $_IESTATUS_InvalidObjectType It's a warning message, non fatal, while an audio file or a video file plays correctly (without scrollbars for the video) 4) Time to paste a part of 2 functions found in IE.au3 A part of _IEAction() : ... Case $sAction = "scrollintoview"     If __IEIsObjType($oObject, "documentContainer") Then         __IEConsoleWriteError("Error", "_IEAction(scrollintoview)", "$_IESTATUS_InvalidObjectType")         Return SetError($_IESTATUS_InvalidObjectType, 1, 0)     EndIf     $oObject.scrollIntoView() ... Case $sAction = "refresh"     $oObject.document.execCommand("Refresh")     If @error Then ; Trap COM error, report and return         __IEConsoleWriteError("Error", "_IEAction(refresh)", "$_IESTATUS_COMError", @error)         Return SetError($_IESTATUS_ComError, @error, 0)     EndIf     _IELoadWait($oObject) ... Now a part of function _IELoadWait(), which is the last line of the "refresh" part as you can see just above : Func _IELoadWait(ByRef $oObject, $iDelay = 0, $iTimeout = -1)     ...     Sleep($iDelay)     ... EndFunc 5) The patch in 2) "scrollintoview" doesn't really fix things because when its error appears in the console, then the function returns without executing its last line $oObject.scrollIntoView() ... which would have returned an error too ! So in fact, you can comment both lines and the script still works fine : ; _IEAction ($myIE_Obj, "refresh") ; _IEAction ($myIE_Obj, "scrollintoview") 6) Let's go back to this last line _IELoadWait($oObject) found in Case $sAction = "refresh" I find it strange that there isn't a 2nd argument passed when calling the function (the delay argument). As soon as I alter the call like this in the include function : _IELoadWait($oObject, 10) ; "10 Milliseconds to wait before checking status" Then _IEAction ($myIE_Obj, "refresh") works fine again in 3.3.16.0, with a simple delay of 10ms ! 7) If devs think this is the reason of this malfunction, I suggest this change in _IEAction() because it doesn't seem normal that the user can't force any delay during his call : * Add a 3rd optional parameter to the function : ; Func _IEAction(ByRef $oObject, $sAction) Func _IEAction(ByRef $oObject, $sAction, $iDelay = 0) * Modify this line in the function, allowing the user to call _IELoadWait() action with a delay : Case $sAction = "refresh" ...     ; _IELoadWait($oObject)     _IELoadWait($oObject, $iDelay) * If this is done (Cycho) now you could call the function like this, from your script : ; _IEAction ($myIE_Obj, "refresh") _IEAction ($myIE_Obj, "refresh", 10) ; "10 Milliseconds to wait before checking status" If 10ms isn't enough, then you could increase it to 20, 50 etc... (it worked with 10 on my antique computer !) Well it was a long post but I think it was worthwhile to share these new tests, maybe someone may have additional ideas about that 8) Edit: or, without altering the include file, you could add the delay line directly in your script, it seems to work too... though solution 7) seems better : no need to call _IELoadWait() twice when you can call it only once : _IEAction ($myIE_Obj, "refresh") _IELoadWait($myIE_Obj, 10) ; <====== added line

Hello Community, let me introduce you to one of my latest projects (with several more in the pipeline), the BIC - Batch-Image-Cropper BIC is a Batch-Image-Cropper program. It will read all of the following file-types from a given directory: *.bmp;*.jpg;*.jpeg;*.png;*.gif;*.tiff;*.emf;*.wmf;*.ico Then it will cycle through all files and show you a cropping mask to crop the images. It supports freeform rotation of the input images (press f) and a lot of additional hotkeys to speed up processing (press ? for a full list). It will not change the input images, but save all cropped images to a dedicated “_BIC” sub-directory. Sorting out the results is totally up to you. Supported output formats currently are JPG, PNG and BMP. For JPG creation BIC can use sub-binaries. JPGE is used to create JPGs from temporary PNGs, as GDI+ enforces chroma sub-sampling by default and might change colors. ExifTool can be used to copy EXIF data from input JPGs to output JPGs. Thanks to GreenCan and his Visual Image Crop (GUI), which was the starting point for BIC. The executable and the source can be downloaded from my site: https://funk.eu Enjoy, let me know what you think of SMF and with Best Regards

Well that is a really "interesting" issue. Just adding a small Sleep(10), instead of _IELoadWait($myIE_Obj, 10), solves also the problem. That is very odd, especially since there is a big Sleep(3000) just before starting the While...WEnd loop. Even if you put 4000-5000 it is still crashing with an Access Denied error (0x80070005). If you check the validity of the object : _IEAction ($myIE_Obj, "refresh") ConsoleWrite(ObjName($myIE_Obj) & "/" & __IEIsObjType($myIE_Obj, "browser", False) & "/" & _ $myIE_Obj.readyState & "/" & $myIE_Obj.document.readyState & @CRLF) $myIE_Obj.document.body.scroll = "no" $myIE_Obj.document.body.style.borderColor = "#000000" You can see that it is all perfectly loaded and ready. The next 2 property sets (after refresh) proves that the object is well created as it doesn't crash the script. So there is absolutely no need to add a delay there. Now if you add a Sleep(10) just between the 2 functions that create the objects it solves the issue. Global $oIE = MyWMPlayer() ConsoleWrite(ObjName($oIE) & @CRLF) Sleep(10) Global $oPlayer = _IEGetObjById($oIE, "objWMPlayer") ConsoleWrite(ObjName($oPlayer) & @CRLF) So the real question, why a simple sleep of 10ms suddenly makes the object more "usable". In fact, the true real question, what is the difference between 3.3.14.5 and the newer versions that could impact the object accessibility. Edit : if you push the GUISetState() after the $oIE object creation, you do not need any Sleep at all. It is probably due to the delay caused by the display of the Windows GUI. If you push further the GUISetState after the big sleep the issue reappears. My take there is a bug created after version 3.3.14.5 and it should be reported.

@pixelsearch, I like the magnifying glass on your avatar. I basically borrowed the function from an old post in this forum and I didn't have to scrutinize it because it worked. Now I tested, by way of adding some text in $htmlWMP, and know that _IEAction ($myIE_Obj, "refresh") is redundant. Even though the question remains to be answered, I will delete the line from my code and consider my problem solved. Thank you and keep up with the good work. You have a lot of sense in having $iDelay option in _IEAction(). I hope the developers will buy your idea.

ARPFre, Add #RequireAdmin to the beginning of your script. M23

Guess it is using a internal variable for somewhere, but Just change line 2348 to: Return @OSBuild >= 6000 ... and things should work again. Jos

2 weeks ago I starts having issue in time when I compile one of my projects. Funny thing is that solution to all my problems was to add at the top of my scirpts, this following line: If Not @Compiled Then ConsoleWrite('ESET') Today it starts hapening for my other projects. I also remember such case: Several years ago, I was working on corrections to one of my projects. I have been correcting it for several hours of work. At the end, when I achieved the desired effect, I noticed that I had a linguistic error (a typo) in one of the messages. So I literally corrected one letter and sent the amendment to the update server. Then, in a remote connection (TeamViewer) at the client's workstation, I wanted to finally update the product. It turned out that changing one letter in the program code regarding the displayed message may cause the heuristic methods of antivirus programs to recognize the program as a virus.

Here a little script to load a TGA image file and create a GDI+ bitmap. Currently supported TGA formats are 1/8/15/16/24 and 32-bit.

SQLite expert is a great tool to manage your DB too. You can create also a db with this tool. http://www.sqliteexpert.com/
