The current CVS version can open files for which you
dont have a VFW codec. In this case you can only
Direct stream copy the clip.
So the mentioned error has been changed in a Log
warning. However there was a case in which no warning
was shown at all : when you open a file by
drag'n'dropping it (or using any shortcut or 'Open
with' feature) to the exe. I guess that's how you
opened the file ? If not please tell how you opened it
thks.
I fixed this problem (the warnings not appearing) some
times ago but just commited the fix in the CVS today.

Best regards
Cyrius
