Vscodium: Missing ffmpeg.dll with UserSetup v1.43

Created on 16 Mar 2020  路  6Comments  路  Source: VSCodium/vscodium

Describe the bug
Reference to #360 which corrected builds for v1.43.

After install of VSCodiumUserSetup-x64-1.43.0.exe, I cannot launch VSCodium and am told ffmpeg.dll cannot be found; advised to reinstall program. Reinstall does not fix the issue and ffmpeg.dll is not included in the v1.43 install folder.

Please confirm that this problem is VSCodium-specific

  • [x] This bug doesn't happen if I use Microsoft's Visual Studio Code. It only happens in VSCodium. (Tested with VSCodeUserSetup-x64-1.43.0.exe)

Please confirm that the issue/resolution isn't already documented

  • [x] I checked the Docs page and my issue is not mentioned there.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Install a fresh copy of VSCodiumUserSetup-x64-1.43.0.exe.
  2. Attempt to open exe.
  3. See error.

Expected behavior
Program opens as expected. ffmpeg.dll is included in install directory.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

  • OS: Windows
  • Architecture x64

I can confirm this is happening for the 64-bit build for windows, version 1.43.0.

Looking at both the installers (Setup and UserSetup) as well as the ZIP archive, the ffmpeg library isn't even included in the 64-bit release, but is as expected in the 32-bit one.

Copying an appropriate x64 ffmpeg.dll from elsewhere (such as the 1.42.1 64-bit release) fixes the issue, but looks like it was missed out of the latest build.

yes, getting the same error!

same here...

Closing this as I've waited enough time that 1.44.2 UserSetup is now working correctly on install.
