Minimum System Requirements
the precision of FilterManager's error-reporting has been improved.
• The
Load()
and
Save()
methods no longer accept an argument (they used to
require a VTR_Enabled argument).
• In the CRegistry class
SetValue()
method, the second argument is no longer
a pointer; you should remove the ampersand from the second argument of
each call to
SetValue()
. See “CRegistry Methods,” page 57, for further
explanation of the changes made to the sample application.
• Spectrum users note: If you were using the version 2.2 Ligos dual-encode
option, you'll find that the required settings in both the DualEnc and the
LigosMpeg1 Registry tables have changed. Many of these changes were made
to accommodate multi-stream encoding using Real and Windows Media™
formats. Please refer to Appendix B for a complete list of Argus Spectrum
multi-stream encoding Registry settings.
