PsychtoolboxVersion error+MakeQTMovie.m

1
Hi all,

I got an error after upgradeing from Phychtoolbox v. 2.5.2 ( for os9) from to
Phychtoolbox OSX Release 1.0.6 (26 October 2005)
Here are errors
---------------------------------------------
>> PsychtoolboxDate
??? Attempt to reference field of non-structure array.

Error in ==> PsychtoolboxVersion at 88
versionString=Psychtoolbox.version.string;

Error in ==> PsychtoolboxDate at 9
PsychtoolboxVersion; % Load the Psychtoolbox struct.
----------------------------------------------

My environment is osx,matlab 7.0.4.352 (R14) Service Pack 2

I am not sure if it is a bug?

Is there any equivalent MakeQTMovie.m in this toolbox? I found that MakeQT.m was
removed in this version, My existing code makes use of this routine.


Best regards,

PA

Hi mario,
Thank for your information.
Surprisingly, the errors have gone when I restart computer.

Running 'IsOS9' returns zero.
Running 'PsychtoolboxVersion' returns 1.0.6

regards,

PA
