OMP abort while bulk processing

[gov]

After upgrading VISTA to service pack 2, I am starting to get the following brief error message while bulk processing Avisynth scripts, along with one VD filter...it happens very intermittently, just as VideoEnhancer (1.92) is about to start processing a new file...the program crashes just before the following appears (note, unchecking the multithreading option does not help) :

OMP abort: currently configured to support a maximum of 32 threads.  Please specify a larger value via the KMP ALL THREADS environment variable to raise this limit.

This error is not from Video Enhancer (it doesn't contain such text and can't say it).
It's from Intel MKL library used by some AviSynth plugin in your script. I've read this limitation was later fixed by Intel, so if there is a newer version of that plugin maybe it will not produce this error.
Another way to avoid it is to set KMP_ALL_THREADS environment variable to 100 or higher.

As a user, not a programmer, how does one alter KMP_ALL_THREADS?

Depends on Windows version, but something like:
Right click on My Computer - Properties - Advanced - Environment variables - Create.

Thank you for this.  To completely eliminate my problem, I ended up with a KMP_ALL_THREADS value of 512.
