r8027 or later should fix Avidemux 2.6 failing to start on 32-bit Windows.
Worked for me.  Thank you.

I am also having this problem running XP SP3 32bit. 2.5.4 runs but nothing after, which is what brought me to this forum. I have an older system. Does the newer versions require SSE?

Yes, and more likely SSE2 to.* There could be an issue to with
QuoteWindows XP Professional Service Pack 3 Multiprocessor Free <> Windows XP Personal Service Pack 3 Uniprocessor Free
Some had/have 2.6 running on some of these computers?
Source: 2.5.6 crash on launch

My 32-bit builds are not meant to require SSE.  Do you have any further info on where the SSE instructions are being encountered?  Libraries like Qt detect the CPU at runtime and use an appropriate instruction set.

The only confirmed culprit I'm aware of is ZoneAlarm.

No sorry. Have no longer windows XP and the CPU AMD Athlon XP-M Mobile 3000+, Barton, 32-bits, Socket A (462) is broken. Was under the impression that there was something with these old CPU and that was it?

I have no indication that SSE is an issue, I have had program problems in the past because I don't have SSE and was curious if this was the problem.

I do not have AVG, I am using Microsoft Essentials.

I have attached some info. If I can be of any help, please let me know.

I tried to attach a screenshot but received a server error.  It was just the standard microsoft error report

QuoteHow do I reset the settings? I'm trying to install from a self-executable install file. After it supposedly installs, it will NOT start.
As I said, remove the %appdata%\avidemux folder. It contains all settings that AVIdemux uses.

If you want more info why AVIdemux doesn't start, use gdb and start AVIdemux via it. Then when error happens, type bt to gdb console.
believe you can get gdb from here: GNU Debugger for Windows

Is this what you are looking for:


(gdb) run avidemux2.exe

Thanks, I think I know what the issue is.  I'll try to sort something out for you soon.

@trgone - I've sent you a PM with instructions.  Please let me know how it goes.

Hi gruntster,
I replied to your e-mail that there is still a problem. I ran the debug program with your pgm and here are the results:

(gdb) target exec avidemux2.exe
(gdb) run avidemux2.exe
Starting program: C:\AV\_Video\Avidemux

2.5/avidemux2.exe avidemux2.exe
[New Thread 1520.0xf20]

Program received signal SIGILL, Illegal instruction.

Let me know if you need anything else.

@Chekov - it appears to be crashing on a memcpy.  What does your admlog.txt file contain? (%APPDATA%\avidemux)
