Title: Portable Install Theater View and Visualizations not working?
Post by: MGD_King on March 19, 2010, 03:13:45 pm

Thought I'd play around with a portable installation and noticed that Theater View and Visualizations don't work from the USB drive (Western Digital MyBook 500GB). Is this normal or is it an issue with 14.0.158? They don't work regardless of which machine I plug into (XP and 7 all with different hardware configs). Currently I'm trying it off my laptop and nothing....

Intel Pentium III 513 MHz MMX That's weird? Why is MC reporting it that way when it's a dual-core 2.4Ghz Intel proc?

Theater View works fine with my portable install.
Visualisations don't however.

Actually your right!  I was going from memory there, they've obviously been fixed at some point! :-)
It works here now!

That just leaves remote not working fully with Portable Install I think.   :)
