Description

Hello,
Im trying to use the app but the line "GetProfileString(TEXT("annie"), TEXT("VideoDevice2"), TEXT("No Found"),
szVideoDisplayName, NUMELMS(szVideoDisplayName));" returns me a " " string.

As you can see i put a default String but the returned string is " "(empty). Someone has the same problem ?

Edit: I saw in some pages that a "normal return" can be something like this:
