Dear psychtoolbox group,
I have searched and searched for an answer to my problem, but I could not find one. So I am bothering the group, hoping for a solution that is probably simple.
During installation of psychtoolbox 3.0.10, I get this message:
Running post-install routine...Creating a startup.m file for Psychtoolbox at C:\Users\adam\Desktop\Documents\MATLAB\toolbox\Psychtoolbox\PsychInitialize\startup.mPsychStartup: Adding path of installed GStreamer runtime to library path. [E:\gstreamer-sdk\0.10\x86_64\bin]Matlab release 2007a or later detected. Will prepend the followingfolder to your Matlab path: C:\Users\adam\Desktop\Documents\MATLAB\toolbox\Psychtoolbox\PsychBasic\MatlabWindowsFilesR2007a\ ...ans =3734.9A very simple test call to the Screen() MEX file failed in AssertOpenGL, indicatingthat either Screen is totally dysfunctional, or you are trying to run your script ona system without Psychtoolbox-3 properly installed - or not installed at all.This script or function is designated to run only an Psychtoolbox based on OpenGL. Read "help AssertOpenGL" for more info.A first more diagnostic test would be to simply type Screen in your Matlab/Octave console and check what its output is.The returned error message by Matlab/Octave was:Last Error: Invalid MEX-file 'C:\Users\adam\Desktop\Documents\MATLAB\toolbox\Psychtoolbox\PsychBasic\MatlabWindowsFilesR2007a\Screen.mexw64': The specified module could not be found.

Is that causing the problem? How could I change this default setting to C:\gstreamer-sdk\0.10\x86_64\bin ?I am using windows 7 64 bit. I have installed GStreamer for windows 64 bit (runtime) and Microsoft Runtime Libraries for MSVC 2010I really need psychtoolbox for syncing stimuli presentation with the screen refresh/vertical retrace. If anyone knows how to do this without the psychtoolbox, that would also solve my problem ...thanks
