fatal error initializing music source?
« on: January 13, 2020, 05:55:12 PM »

For some reason when I try to run the program fullscreen on a screen with the resolution of  3840 by 2160  on my television it hard crashes the game saying  fatal error intializing music source - Al error 40964.

What in all that is holy happened?

Hi - sorry about the trouble! Was it working on the TV before, or is this something new you're trying?

Doing a bit of digging, the last time this was reported by someone (in 2015, but not on a TV) a reboot fixed the issue for them.

No, 2 new ones appeared saying fatal: org.lwjg.openal.AL10.nalListenerfv(IJ)V and sound initialization failed. I am running it via the cancel scale from application compatibility setting.

Hmm, I'm sorry - I'm not sure what you mean, could you clarify? Does the game run on your computer normally and only fail when you try it on the tv?

I am running it via the cancel scale from application compatibility setting.

I'm not sure what this means.

saying fatal: org.lwjg.openal.AL10.nalListenerfv(IJ)V and sound initialization failed.

There are some things to try for this in the troubleshooting thread, here:

But whether or not they are applicable depends on what exactly going on.

Its one of the advanced settings that helps fix scaling issues for any kind of window. It runs on the tv just fine whenever I am using fullscreen without sound, or sound without fullscreen.
