Hi Toby, I get an identical error when trying to dump audio from an asf file, although it plays the audio from asf fine if I am not trying to capture it. And it also plays and captures mpg and mpeg files okay too. I would be interested to know if you solve this one. Apparently it needs those font description files for some purposes and not for others.
