Crash when playing real-media in mplayer

Congrats for takeoff !

Small niggle:

Sometimes (not always but often) xplorer2 crashes when I try to open media files (real) using the command line driven mplayer via the send-to menu. It is saying: xplorer2-commport: xplorer2: error in application. There seems to be an error in memory address, but all addresses in the error message are 000000.
The player keeps on playing normal after xplorer2 crashed.
Mplayer is in this case the windows port of the linux media-player (GNU public). I only see crashes using the new version of xplorer2.

Sure,

Here is the exact error message (german):

xplorer2_CommPort: xplorer2.exe Fehler in Anwendung
"Die Anweisung "0x00000000" verweist auf Speicher "0x00000000". Der Vorgang "read" konnte nicht im Speicher ausgeführt werden.

I try to catch a crash with Dr.Watson, will post result as soon as possible.

If Dr. Watson would speak greek, his name would be Dr. Watispapas, I guess :D .

(also sent as email)

which version is this, the 1.0.0.0 LITE?
can you use sendto at all, e.g. to copy files to a floppy disk?

Sorry, had to go offline for a while.

Yes, xplorer2 1.0.0.0 LITE (The path in the logfile doesnt say anything).
Noticed I am in the wrong forum now, but I bookmarked "support" and not "professional".
Yes, I can handle so far everthing else by send-to (although I get a strange "cannot handle this type of document" notice when shifting a file, fileshift works).

Hallo everybody,

Just like to mention that Nikos found that a faulty third-party split-file extention in my send-to menu caused xplorer2 to crash when playing media via send-to. Thus, the problem does not originate in xplorer2.

what i said in my email was that i suspected that extension dll to be the problem. From your answer i take it that you have indeed confirmed this to be the case?

Yes.
