    FlasK and watermarks...

    Greetings,

    I have been having a spot of trouble, and I decided to post in these forums for help. I simply have no other place to turn for a solution to this incredibly baffling problem.

    My problem is this: on most of the encodes I have made
    in the past, I have always used a signature watermark.
    I do this so others will have a more difficult time
    claiming a beautiful encode that I spent a week on
    working and tweaking.

    Anyways, for some reason I dont understand, I am now
    unable to use the watermark feature of the AVIOut.
    Here is how it started...

    One day I began to encode a file that had a seperate
    subtitle file. Now this particular one was coded
    strangely, such that the subtitles would not appear
    properly on screen. I found a FlasK that could
    accomplish this feat, the only thing I can remember
    about it was it was a 980Kb executable. Anyways, in
    my trials to find a workable solution, I installed
    your latest version, .6. In and of itself it seemed a
    good version, even with good subtitle support, but I
    couldnt find the watermark feature (OpenDML out, I was
    then unaware of it). Well, long story short, after
    using the 980Kb version for a short while, I was
    suddenly unable to load a watermark properly.
    Everytime I attempted to do so, it would just
    instantly revert back to the defualt watermark as soon
    as I closed the configure window. I have since tried
    nearly every single version of FlasK I can find,
    including .6 using the old style AVI-out. Not a
    single one of these will work properly.

    I am, simply put, at the end of my rope. The thing
    that truely baffles me is, about one week ago I
    formatted my HD and loaded WinXP (blech ;-p). After
    downloading the zip files again, on a clean HD save
    the OS, I was faced with the same problem...the
    watermark absolutely refuses to work on any version of
    FlasK. This really shocked me, as I expected
    something had just gone awry under Win98, and maybe
    corrupted a file or something. But now, it does it
    even under WinXP.

    So, no matter what I seem to do or try, I cannot get the watermark to work properly. I am worn out and frusterated with this problem. I would greatly appreciate any and all advice that any of you could give me. I simply am at a loss.

    Sincerely,
