All I know it the only working 1.11 was the beta 2 with a setup on the build server (can't remember build num)
but it was compiled with dynamic libs and QT 4.7.4

I noticed you could to a static build for QT, this does not work well when building mixxx with scons. default qt option is -shared

Anyway, yesterday I managed to have a working version by replacing the protoc.exe file that was in the path, and used the one in the lib folder
(unfortunately, I deleted and retry, then it crashed again)

A bit of info on QT, and maybe a way for you to upload your lib version :

For QT compilation, 342 or 64 : There is no need to tweak any files

setenv /x86 for 32 bits, setenv /x64 for 64 bits, that's all.

then I used the command line from the source only package. (there you may check what I did, and/or use your command line instead)

I saw a way to "lighten" the QT payload: do a "nmake install" that will sever links between the SRC and the compiled version. (mainly : that will populate the include folder)

then just copy the bin, plugin, include and lib folders in a new folder.

this folder is your new "QTDIR" (no need for a lot of stuff in there, but the size, zipped, is uploadable somewhere)
4.7.4 64 = 47 MB rar'ed
4.8.2 64 = 49MB

the 32 bit is smaller.
I think the debug version would be larger.

in the mean time I'm back to trying to make my successful compilation and runing work again.
