Cannot embed VideoLAN component within vb.net form

[ButchA]

Hi folks,
I built a windows form using an older activeX plugin v2 of VideoLAN. Now, I installed the latest version 2.0.4. and tried to embed the new plugin but this is no longer possible. I received an error like this (translated from german):

"Error when creating component AxHost... System.Reflection.ReflectionTypeLoadException: At least one type of assembly could not be loaded..."

I guess this is a more general problem of the new activeX plugin, isn't it? Any suggestions?

Moreover, the name of the new activeX plugins is written in asian letters "䱖⁃捁楴敶⁘汐杵湩愠摮䤠⁅敗⁢汐杵湩 v2" in the list of com objects. That's really strange! Anyway, I could rename the plugin within the toolbox, finally.

Thanks!

You (or someone else) can try compile with this: https://code.google.com/p/vc-axnp-vlc/s ... name=work1 - maybe it will solve problem.

Hi,
sorry for posting in an old thread, but nice to hear that I'm not the only one who has this problem.
I just filed in a bug report about this issue.
Is there a similar workaround for VB to the one for C++ form the link provided by RSATom?
