Playing upconvert_from_screen_me2.avs.
AVS file format detected.
Invalid seek to negative position ffffffffffffffff!

I "think" meant that it wasn't sending any frames at all through. Using ffplay on it might help too. (DirectShowSource("push2.GRF")

What it really meant for me was that I had set my "x" parameter to be too high for my screen capture device so it wasn't capturing anything maybe [?] or was dying?

RegOpenKeyEx(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, HKLM

for me this meant “32-bit apps in windows 7/vista 64-bit cannot read from it I guess, use HKCU instead”

looks like it’s “use avisynth with a directshow graph, like

Video = DirectShowSource("uscreen.GRF", fps=30, audio=False, framecount=1000000)

"

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1375025/session-management-in-rails-2-3 seems to have the correct answer. expiry_time option <yipers>. The default is apparently “browser session”

for me this meant “it isn’t getting past the .htaccess file”

because I had it set to

Options +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch +ExecCGI

and maybe the running owner is apache, not yourself, for the .htaccess file, so…for me it meant there was a symlinked directory in my public folder. Which apparently isn’t allowed.  Go figure.
