> I recompiled the same revision and it's working fine now. This has happened before too; something goes wrong with the compilation but it doesn't abort. It never happened for me before using Maven, maybe it's unstable?

If PMS ran, it means the source code was compiled allright; so that part wasn't unstable. Thumbnails and broken playback seem to indicate missing binaries.
That should be visible in the size of the resulting PMS-setup.exe and in the logs.

Dunno, that should be pretty straightforward. Plus I think you would notice the missing output as it's a pretty long stretch of output on Windows during the build process.

It sounds more like NSIS not packaging the PMS-setup.exe properly.
Or the files not being where NSIS expects them to be at the time of packaging.
Or maybe Windows is locking files that Maven or NSIS would like to delete.

Next time you encounter a version with those problems, try to copy the Maven output and the debug.log.
They should contain hints as to what this unstability might be!
