Common Error: "The procedure entry point could not be located"
: When a game wants to play a cutscene, it often allocates its own memory for the video frames to save on resources. It then "registers" these buffers with the Bink library so the video can be decoded directly into them. bink register frame buffer-8
The game allocates a chunk of system RAM or VRAM: 320 * 240 = 76,800 bytes . It then calls: BinkRegisterFrameBuffer-8(my_surface, 320, 240, 320, my_palette, 0); The Bink decoder internally stores this pointer in a register array. Common Error: "The procedure entry point could not
So, what makes the Bink Register Frame Buffer-8 so special? Here are some of its key features: The Bink header is parsed
) that tells it how many video buffers to use, but the version of binkw32.dll
The game calls BinkOpen("intro.bik", BINK_SOFTPALETTE) . The Bink header is parsed. The video stream is identified as palletized 8-bit.
This happens because the game is looking for a specific function ( _BinkGetFrameBuffersInfo@8
