Just installed the opdate for LRC 14: Since then the slideshow does not work anymore. An Error Message Apears "Dynamic Link-Medienserver konnte nicht gestartet werden" (Dynamic linc media server could not be launched). Tried a full re-install fron scratch  - even with empty catalogue. Problem persists.

I have the same problem. Did you find a solution?

No, I rolled back to LRC13

We can most likely get to an authoritative resolution right now without wasting any more time with Adobe support. Do the LR menu command Help > System Info and copy/paste the entire contents here. That will confirm whether your computer supports AVX2 instructions.

Thanks for the additional information. I was starting to wonder if the lastest version snuck in an incompatibility. Unfortunately I am now stuck--I can't go forward and I don't want to go backward due to a lot of edits done on Ver 14+.

 

It's unfortunate that sloppy version control is affecting Adobe customers like this. I will run this past the Tier 2 guys to see if there a possible resolution.

 

Again, thanks.
