I run Csound 5 under WindowsXP. When I try to run the PVC utility out of the CsoundGUI interface, I get this error message:
"PortMIDI real time MIDI plugin for Csound
virtual_keyboard real time MIDI plugin for Csound
WARNING: could not open library 'C:\Program Files\Csound\plugins64\csnd.dll' (-1)
WARNING: could not open library 'C:\Program Files\Csound\plugins64\fluidOpcodes.dll' (-1)

WARNING: could not open library 'C:\Program Files\Csound\plugins64\stdutil.dll' (-1)
Error: utility 'pvanal' not found"
Problem is, all these files are present and in the directories listed in the warning. ALso, the "Environment" option in the CsoundGUI are also set. PVANAL is in the directory set as PATH in the WindowsXP environment variables.
I don't understand why csound5 doesn't find the file, nor how I can get it to recognize the file.
Any ideas?



Re: Csound GUI Paths Don't work
Well I suspect that Csound5GUI is not calling the PVANAL program executable but is trying to run it via the Csound executable (which is possible with the commandline "Csound -U pvanal"). And it fails because the stdutil.dll library is not loading (which contains all of the utilities).
I think there was a problem with an older version of Csound loading these plugins. Which version of Csound is this? "Doubles" or "floats"?
Can you run pvanal from the commandline?
