HyperSpin crashes when it tries to load a video

EDIT: I fixed it by setting compatability mode to Windows 7.  I do not like this solution, so if you have a different way to fix this, I'm all ears.  Thanks.

Hello,

Whenever I launch HyperSpin, it crashes.  If I disable the intro video, it will load the wheel, but then it will crash again (because it's trying to load the MAME video).  I have read all the stickied threads and all the info on disabling flash, but none of that appears to be relevant any more.  Both the mp4 and flv files play fine in my Videos folders.  I have the latest NVIDIA drivers installed for my 680 and I'm on Windows 10 if that matters.  I'm using the latest HyperSpin 1.4.16, and I have added exclusions for My entire HyperSpin and RocketLauncher folders.   Can I please get some help?

 

This is what's in my log.txt file:

09:26:50 PM |  HyperSpin Started 
09:26:50 PM |  Going windowed mode 
09:26:50 PM |  Checking for updates 
09:26:50 PM |  Update Check Complete 
09:26:50 PM |  Startup program unavailable 
09:26:50 PM |  Error intializing joysticks 
09:26:50 PM |  Menu Mode is multi 
09:26:50 PM |  Loading Main Menu.xml 
09:26:50 PM |  Main Menu.xml successfully loaded 
09:26:51 PM |  Main Menu wheel loaded successfully 

EDIT: I fixed it by setting compatability mode to Windows 7.  I do not like this solution, so if you have a different way to fix this, I'm all ears.  Thanks.

From what I remember, HS itself has issues with certain flash video codecs. Maybe I'm wrong, but I think even if they run in native windows you might still have an issue within HS. 

Is there anything preventing you from going to MP4?

There isn't anything preventing me from switching to mp4, but I don't see an option to use mp4.  I tried removing the flash video to force it to use the mp4, but it didn't seem to make a difference--it still froze HyperSpin.

Yes! I also had to change to compatibility mode after I updated to Windows 10! My Hyperspin videos are sometimes slow, they work perfect outside of Hyperspin. Hopefully the updated Hyperspin fixes this video lag and Windows 10 issue. It's weird it just hit you though

That's so weird... I'm on Win 10 (updated from 7) with no issues at all.

It might be time to just cut bait. Issues like this can turn into a never ending rabbit hole.

You could try updating or installing the latest k-lite codec pack.

No disrespect, but I'm not letting a codec pack anywhere near my system. :)

The weird thing for me is it ran perfect I. Windows 7, the videos play perfect outside of Hyperspin, then in Hyperspin there are small lags for a sec every couple seconds sometimes. If I make Hyperspin in window mode it's perfect again. Compatibility made it a lot better but can notice it sometimes
