Most probably the result of having two yellowfins.  Unless you find it necessary I would rename the old YF or delete it.  what levels of YF are you running???    I will check some more on this.   chuck

No i deleted and reloaded every thing new same thing is happening my converter is 109c the new update brings it up to nov.2008 i think. but if you convert a file and check the box to start playing
when finished converting. The player is the origanal downloaded player that is not updated.The date is like 2006. How do i get the HBSI SONAR CONV. to use my updated yellowFin player when
i check the box to play when done converting.  Thanks Gary

If I am not mistaken, I believe you are supposed to copy over the old .exe with the updated one. 

I just checked and in the download there should be a file that says, READ ME FIRST.

Replace the file YellowFin.exe in the main folder using the one in the folder named "Update V2.0"
The main folder is standard installed in C:\Program files\Imagenex\YellowFin

Hope that helps.  It should fix the problem.
