tman 47 Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 Just updated two installations of ET to 2.04 (one 32-bit Win7, the other 64-bit Win7). Now, when starting ET, they both report; electron.exe - Entry Point Not Found The procedure entry point PowerDeterminePlatformRoleEx could not be located in the dynamic link library POWRPROF.dll. The executable seems to load (it shows in Task Manager), but no GUI shows on the display. You have to kill the process to clear it. Ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37188 Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 Try this http://fix4dll.com/powrprof_dll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tman 47 Posted March 12, 2016 Author Share Posted March 12, 2016 Thanks Luke. Just to clarify here, you don't think there's a problem with the 2.04 build of ET, despite the fact I get this error on TWO different installations? The version of powrprof.dll in that link is WAY smaller in size than the ones on my system, and much, much older. I'm assuming, because ET is a 32-bit app, it'll be using the libraries from C:\Windows\SysWOW64. If so, the version of powrprof.dll in that folder is 6.1.7600.16385 and 143k. The version in the link is 6.0.2900.2180 and 17k in size. I tried a full uninstall/re-install as well. No difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37188 Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 do you have chrome installed on either of those machines? does it run? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've copy it in Emby Theater/System folder but no way, the same error message appears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWGiles 10 Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 Hi i'm getting the same, but chrome works for me thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pdav22 5 Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 Sorry to hijack the thread but I'm suddenly having the exact same problem - I'm running Windows 7 64bit. I use Chrome and it works fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37188 Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 Yea l looks like an issue has been submitted to electron https://github.com/atom/electron/issues/4770 For immediate resolution you can grab the zip of the previous release and just run it portable https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Emby.Theater.Windows/releases/tag/2.0.2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tman 47 Posted March 12, 2016 Author Share Posted March 12, 2016 Quite relieved it wasn't just me. Chrome 49 works just fine by the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicko84 37 Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 (edited) Issue on Windows 7 32 for me (Powrprof.dll error message), and no Chrome installed. On Windows 10, no error message but a spinning circle when i try to play a movie...and it never works (Crome 49 is installed) All is good on windows 7 and 10 with the portable previous release.

tman 47 Posted March 13, 2016 Author Share Posted March 13, 2016 I notice that github electron issue has been closed. Has it been resolved? Can we expect another ET release with this fixed anytime soon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tman 47 Posted March 13, 2016 Author Share Posted March 13, 2016 Ok, looks like 2.0.5 seems to have fixed this. It certainly installed and ran without any problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37188 Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 Yes 2.0.5 is up. Electron pushed out a fix pretty quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
