How do I record the code to execute the functions triggered by the CAPTURE BOX + LIVE BUTTON

IPP 9.1.4 seems to be having a problem during a RECORD MACRO that is being done to capture the functions triggered by the CAPTURE BOX + LIVE BUTTON.

The ERROR generated is

    Error in Image-Pro Premier 64-bit
    Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

I think this is something that I've worked around in the past but I'm not having good luck finding it in my code library.

The same thing happens when trying to RECORD the functions triggered by the CAPTURE BUTTON.

Any suggestions?

Oh . . .

I am using a SIMULATED CAMERA.  Perhaps this is the issue.

Thanks.

Matt,

There's a bug in capture recording which will be addressed in the next Premier release. See this post http://forums.mediacy.com/discussion/comment/1136/#Comment_1136  for a workaround.

Thank you for directing me to DISCUSSION 1136.

I was able to use the information there to address my needs.

Thanks again.

Here is the code that I generated for a LIVE and a CAPTURE button within my APPLICATION.

Please note that:

1) Both of these routines close any images that are open when this code is triggered.
2) My LIVE routine closes the image frozen with the PREVIEW is turned OFF (unlike the "real" PREMIER LIVE BUTTON)

I hope this helps to recharge the zen.
