Installing Replay Video Capture on Ubuntu with Wine

I don't see much sense using Replay Video Capture on Linux or Mac OS X. Even if it works, it will only record sound from Windows applications. And most probably you will be able to record video from Windows applications only.

I tried to install Replay Media Catcher in Ubuntu 9.10, but got the following error:

fixme:actctx:parse_depend_manifests Could not find dependent assembly L"Microsoft.VC80.CRT"

It was easy to fix the problem

wget http://www.kegel.com/wine/winetricks
winetricks vcrun2005sp1

I was able to run Replay Video Capture, but couldn't record anything with it. May be I need a newer version of Wine.

Wine 1.2.2 in Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick:

Installation of Replay Video Capture:

wine RVCSetup.exe
fixme:actctx:parse_depend_manifests Could not find dependent assembly L"Microsoft.VC80.CRT" (8.0.50727.762)
admin@ubuntu_rules:~/Desktop$ sh: getcwd() failed: No such file or directory
shell-init: error retrieving current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: No such file or directory
sh: getcwd() failed: No such file or directory
sh: getcwd() failed: No such file or directory
sh: getcwd() failed: No such file or directory

Fixing the "Could not find dependent assembly L"Microsoft.VC80.CRT" (8.0.50727.762)" problem:

wget http://www.kegel.com/wine/winetricks
winetricks vcrun2005sp1

First run:

wine RVCap.exe
err:module:import_dll Library WMVCore.DLL (which is needed by L"C:\\Program Files\\Replay Video Capture\\RVCap.exe") not found
err:module:LdrInitializeThunk Main exe initialization for L"C:\\Program Files\\Replay Video Capture\\RVCap.exe" failed, status c0000135

Copied WMVCORE.DLL from Windows\System32\ to Replay Video Capture folder.

Another run:

wine RVCap.exe
Trying to load PE image for unsupported architecture (AMD-64)
err:module:import_dll Loading library WMVCore.DLL (which is needed by L"C:\\Program Files\\Replay Video Capture\\RVCap.exe") failed (error c000007b).
err:module:LdrInitializeThunk Main exe initialization for L"C:\\Program Files\\Replay Video Capture\\RVCap.exe" failed, status c0000135

Downloaded another WMVCore.DLL from

http://www.dlldump.com/download-dll-files_new.php/dllfiles/W/wmvcore.dll/9.00.00.3250/download.html

and copied it to the Replay Video Capture folder.

Another run:

wine RVCap.exe
err:module:import_dll Library wmidx.dll (which is needed by L"C:\\Program Files\\Replay Video Capture\\WMVCore.DLL") not found
err:module:import_dll Library WMASF.DLL (which is needed by L"C:\\Program Files\\Replay Video Capture\\WMVCore.DLL") not found
err:module:import_dll Library WMVCore.DLL (which is needed by L"C:\\Program Files\\Replay Video Capture\\RVCap.exe") not found
err:module:LdrInitializeThunk Main exe initialization for L"C:\\Program Files\\Replay Video Capture\\RVCap.exe" failed, status c0000135

Downloaded wmidx.dll and WMASF.DLL from

http://www.dlldump.com/download-dll-files.php/dllfiles/W/wmasf.dll/download.html
http://www.dlldump.com/download-dll-files_new.php/dllfiles/W/wmidx.dll/9.00.00.3250/download.html

and copied them to the Replay Video Capture folder.

Finally got the registration dialog. Copy-pasted the serial number, but couldn't click through any buttons on this dialog windows. Placed my cursor onto the serial number edit box and pressed Enter. Got a dialog window about audio problems and the following in the terminal

fixme:mixer:ALSA_MixerInit No master control found on SAA7134, disabling mixer
err:alsa:ALSA_CheckSetVolume Could not find 'PCM Playback Volume' element

The "Get Window" button didn't work. Selected the area on the screen with markers manually. Then hit the Record button.
I got the error: "Cannot install screen capture filter". But Replay Video Capture showed that it recorded something:



When I stopped recording, I got the following in the Terminal:

err:dialog:EndDialog got invalid window handle ((nil)); buggy app !?
err:dialog:EndDialog got invalid window handle ((nil)); buggy app !?

I wasn't able to find the recorded file.

Tested WM Capture 5 with Wine 1.2.2 in Ubuntu 10.10 and the program was crashing after hitting the Record button.
