Hi,

I tried to install jitter on a PC with windows XP system and got this error message:

Jitter is in demo mode
Jitter 1.6.3 installed
?error:mxj:could not find Java 2 Runtime Environment
?error:Error loading:
?error:Please check your Java installation. Http://Java.sun.com
?error:Unable to create JVM
?error:Jitter Java support:could not find jvm

Any ideas?
I have tried many times uninstall and reinstall both Max and Jitter, nothing works... Please help!

Thank you!!!

well check the following:

- Jitter needs frameworks
- Jitter needs Java 5.0 (not 6.0, it doesn't work)
- Jitter needs Quicktime

hope this helps...

Did you try installing Java Runtime, as the error message suggests?

it works with Max 4.6.3/Jitter 1.6.3 as far as I can tell.

Older versions of Jitter might also work with Java 6.0 if the
appropriate modifications to the max.java.config.txt are made--i.e.

- in the "max.java.config.txt " file located in C74:/java/ change the
line "max.jvm.option -Xms16m" to "max.jvm.option -Xms64m"

That's possible, I'm running an older Max/Jitter
My Max is 4.5 Jitter 1.2
