Comment (by lutra):

 > I coudn`t test it with 1.5.0, because the osgeo4w installation don`t
 support ecw.


 It does support ecw. You just need to install the gdal16-ecw library and
 copy the necessary dll into the system32 folder.

 So... please test osgeo4w/qgis-dev to see if is a bug related only to 1.4
 and/or just to the standalone installer.
