pre-built windows binary crashed while loading

[Mark Kane]

I downloaded video-compare-20220812-win10-x86_64.zip from the Releases section.
When ran video-compare.exe on Windows 10 the application crashed while loading. Below is the output from the Debug option.
I know the crash info is not much to go on but does anyway one know how I can overcome this problem?

Hey @mkane7,

I'm sorry to hear the executable crashes while loading. Thanks for supplying disassembly - it makes debugging a bit easier.

From your dump I notice several AVX and AVX2 instructions. Does your CPU support AVX2? You can check with a tool like CPU-Z.

[Mark Kane]

I see AVX but not AVX2 in the instructions reported by CPU-Z

[Jon Frydensbjerg]

OK, makes sense the executable crashed while executing vinserti128 on your system then (it's an AVX2 instruction).

I'll lower the requirements to just plain old AVX for the next release.

[Jon Frydensbjerg]

I hope to have time to put it up tomorrow.

[Jon Frydensbjerg]

Hey @mkane7,

So I've just released a new version compiled to use AVX. Let me know if 20220816 works on your machine.

[Mark Kane]

Yes, the 20220816 release runs on my machine. Thank you.
