  Hi Sahn,
  In order to see where this error comes from it would be useful to know which version of opensesame are you running and what is your operating system?

  This post suggests that for earlier versions of opensesame special characters in either the username or pathname might give a problem, but most of those problems seem to be fixed.

  perhaps also useful

  Thanks, Roelof!

  It seems others have similar problems. I use Windows 7 and the latest version of opensesame, which is 3.1. I did change my username from Korean to English because I wanted to play a mp4 file in my folder and realized that my username caused a problem. That problem was fixed, but the above message popped up later when I reloaded the program.

  Now I'm wondering if this error is critical. Actually what I wanted to do was to play a mp4 file in my folder, so I dragged visual stimuli (media_player_mpy) but it didn't work. Should I install another function to do this? 'Help' told me to use pip and I'm wondering if I need to install Python to use pip.

  Cluess in Korea...

  Hi Sahn,

  Could you post the stacktrace that you get when you see the OpenScienceFramework error? The stacktrace is a full error message that you can find in the debug window.

  Details! In what sense didn't it work? Did you get an error message, and if so, what was it?

  You can see how to use pip in OpenSesame on this page (but I'm not sure it's relevant to your problem):
