The SpotDJ Blog

It seems that a small number of users encounter a problem when installing SpotDJ that results in this message. Luckily, we have a temporary fix you can use until we are able to track down the root cause and modify the installer.

To fix the problem manually, you get to enjoy the magic of manual DLL registration. Don’t worry — it’s easier than it sounds. Children in Redmond, WA learn this in second grade!

1. Click the “Start” button and select “Run” from the Start Menu.
2. In the box, type “cmd” (no quotes) and click “OK”. A command prompt comes up.
3. Type “cd c:\Program Files\Context Optional\SpotDJ” (again, no quotes!) and press RETURN
4. Type “regsvr32 AudioCtl.dll” and press RETURN.
5. You should get a message saying that DllRegisterServer succeeded. Hooray!
6. Start SpotDJ. Tell a friend!

If you’re still having problems after trying this, please send us a message and we’ll do our best to help you out.
