In Reply to: RE: cMP - the open source high-end Memory Player posted by cics on December 30, 2007 at 05:42:01
I have build a CMP decidated computer and cannot get CMP to work i.e. to play the music. The error message is "ERROR Player thread handle is NULL". I have tried with different player optimizations, same result. Cplay on its own works fine, except that I noticed that the "ASIO 2.0-ESI Juli@ Settings" don't come up when selected.
I've reinstalled XP, and tried again, same result.
Mobo: Asus P5KPL-AM EPU (G31), Intel E7500, 2 GB DDR2 Kingston, Juli@ soundcard, XP Prof SP2, 320GB 2,5" S-ATA2 disc.
On my other computer based on a AMD dual core chip, I had all CMP, CPlay and Juli@ working just fine.
Any idea anyone? I am stuck, any help is appreciated.

Looks like you're using the wrong cPlay version or it needs to be reinstalled. Problem is cPlay is exiting immediately on startup. Try deleting "cicsPlay.ini" file found in cPlay's installation folder.
Failing this, based on the diagnostic output you've posted Windows is not setup correctly or something is wrong at kernel level. Correct output for cPlay startup should be something like this:
Player started.
Task = #N "c:\program files\cics Play\cicsPlay.exe" %C
Player Process Affinity: system 0x00000003 before 0x00000001 after 0x00000003
Player optimised for Critical.
I suspect you've installed latest SP2 security patches from MS.
Juli@ does not offer an ASIO control panel - settings must be done in XP mode then switch to cMP mode.
thanks for your feedback. I've tried other cPlay versions, deleting the ini file also - no change. Leaves the XP SP2 security patches, I admit they are not up to date. Will try again after I updated them.
Also check your CUE_PLAYER setting in cicsMemoryPlayer.pth file. Default assumes cPlay is installed in the default folder (c:\program files\cics play).
Great, thank you :) This hint solved my problem my cPlay is in c:\programme\
Thanks again, will start optimizing now
Does your cmp^2 pc recognize juli@ with an esi logo in the bottom right corner upon reboot? If not dissassemble juli@, reassemble.
thanks for asking. Yes, I have that. Juli@ v 1.23. After launching cmp and getting the error message, then closing cmp again the icon is gone though.
its ok to lose the icon after (error in windows as I recall). sorry I did not help.
no problem. the next thing I could do is update the bios, but I am hesitating as it's a bit tricky for me. what do you think?
