VLC 3.0.0 nightly build, Active X control not Registered

[dreadLocks]

I installed VLC 3.0.0 from the nightly builds, when I try to place VLC active X control in a dialog box, I get the error message that the control was NOT REGISTERED, then it would not let me place it in the dialog box.

Im using Visual Studio C++ 2015, windows 8.1

I tried manually registering it using regsvr32, and that program claims it was registered successfully, but even after doing that, I still get the error, even if I reboot the computer.

Anybody can help?

Have you installed the 32bits version? If you want to use the 64bits version, you also have to install the 32bits version.

Hello da2424,

I installed the 32 bit version, and then i installed the 64 bit version in the same folder as the 32 bit version, but the problem still exists.

When I try to place the VLC active X component in a Visual Studio dialog box, it said the control is not registered and doesnt allow me to place it.

Do i have to install 32 and 64 bit in a separate folder, or the same folder?

I also tried installing it in a different folder, the active X component still didnt work.

I have tested it with the newest nightlies, it works fine for me in a new VB.NET project.

Please install the 32bits and 64bits in separate folders, otherwise the most of files will be overwritten.
