Thank you!

For testing POV-Ray I had installed the standard POV-Ray distribution
(3.6.1). I used the DLL-file for my compiled one (compiled with source code
of 3.6) which did not work. After this I tried the 3.5.0-DLL of MegaPOV and
it was successful.

So it could be a problem of different POV-Ray versions.
