Isadora 3.0.4: Serious Bug in Windows Release Version – Please Read Now

[mark]

Dear All and to the Team ( @DusX @Woland @mc_monte )

In my effort to respond to the late breaking bug found by @Juriaan and others in the Control Panel, I introduced a serious crash into the Isadora 3.0.4 release version for Windows only. Simply attempting to import or play a HAP movie will crash Isadora every time.

This is specifically my fault. I sincerely apologize for any invconvenince this might have caused you.

The Macintosh version is unaffected by this bug.

If you have not downloaded Isadora v3.0.4 for Windows:
-- please wait 24 hours. I am confident the bug will be addressed in that time frame and there will be a 3.0.5 release that addresses this issue

If you did install Isadora v3.0.4 for Windows and need to work without crashes:
--please revert to Isadora 3.0.2 from the legacy downloads page.

If you are on Windows and would like to help us by trying a version which should fix this crash:
--please download and install v3.0.5 using these links.

https://troikatronix.com/files... (win standard)
https://troikatronix.com/files... (win usb key version)

After you do, simply try to import and/or play a AVI or MOV file that is encoded with the HAP codec.

Best Wishes,
Mark

Thanks for the quick fix Mark. I can confirm that HAP encoded files that crashed 3.04 work fine in 3.05 in Windows.

I have two solid reports from users and also from @DusX that Isadora 3.0.5 for Windows addresses the crash introduced into v3.0.4.

I think you can feel safe to use 3.0.5 if you need to. We will have a team meeting at 4pm Berlin time and make it official after that if everyone on the team agrees.

Best Wishes,
Mark

Also did some testing and let it run for 2 hours, it seems to be stable again.
