Filter Manager Error/Status Codes

-48

Unable to read mark-in from tape deck.

Check COM port connec-
tions, Check to see that VTR
is in remote mode, etc.

-49

Unable to recognize microcode type in looking
up VTR adjustment in Registry.

-50

Error initializing pin that connects IBMVideo to
Mux component.

Check swap space on C:\
drive. Make sure mux was
shut down properly last
time (that CVProServer and
MemMgrServer were not
left running).

-51

Attempted to initialize a video component that
was already initialized.

Try resetting or quitting appli-
cation. Make sure no other
instances of the encoder are
running simultaneously.
Be sure to terminate
CVProServer and
MemMgrServer before
restarting.

-52

Attempted to cue a video component that was
already cued.

Try resetting or quitting appli-
cation. Make sure no other
instances of the encoder are
running simultaneously.
Be sure to terminate
CVProServer and
MemMgrServer before
restarting.

-52

V_INIT

(Encoder chip error code)

An error occurred while
attempting to initialize the
video board. Run diags.

-53

Attempted to cue a video component that was
already playing.

Terminate last encode (or
wait for it to finish) before
starting next encode.
