Sujet: 2 problems seen with 5.0r5.

Ce topic est ancien et peut contenir des informations obselètes ou incorrectes.

Hey all,

Tried out r5 over the weekend and came across two problems.

1) the mysterious interface crash where VDJ just seems to disappear without warning. I don't even know what I did to cause this. I clicked on a couple of folders and then near or on the search field and "poof" VDJ just closed with no warning. I was using the mixlab 1.3 skin.

2) our client wanted us to play a 14 minute slides show which was a .wmv file created in movie maker. It played fine in media player classic and windows media player. In VDJ it only showed up as 5 minutes exactly.

Nothing else to report.

so far rev 5 has been real solid for me, but I just hope that the vdj team keep it as stable and to focus on fixing bugs and not to think about to much extra features
 

 

Each time the development team releases a new version some of the skins need to be updated for compatibility. I would recommend sticking with the default skin if your looking for a truly reliable solution. (Speaking from experience)

Can you post whats contained in your crashguard.txt file located in your my documents folder. This will help the development team work out what is causing the issues.
 

Not helpfull re your crashes but regarding your wmv file. I use video almost exclusively, now some criticise the fact that i use mpeg1, but the fact is, it's a VERY reliable tried and tested format, very solid and very quick to decode. If you look at WMV, technically speaking, it's designed for one thing, streaming to windows mediaplayer!

My MAJOR recommendation to anyone who wants to get serious about video is to buy yourself a copy of "TmpGenc 4 Express" :-

http://tmpgenc.pegasys-inc.com/en/product/te4xp.html

It's easy to use (very) it will convert almost ANY video format into ANY other. It allows you to edit videos, so if you have those music vids with a long intro, you can cut out the intro. It has lots of filters for both picture and sound. It allows you to remux video/audio, ie if you have one that's out of sync, hell i even had a video (The Cult - She Sells Sanctuary) where the audio quality wasn't great and it allowed me to graft a good quality mp3 of the track onto the video AND synch it up!

If you are in the UK, buy this NOW as we have the strongest pound to dollar exchange rate we've had in MANY years so you will get it at a bargain price.

There are those on here that I have recommended this software to and who will back up everything I say above. I am not affiliated to TmpGenc in any way whatsoever, in my opinion, for what it does and it's cost it's simply the best!

 

I've had the interface problem also, but it only happened once and was not reproduceable. If I remember correctly, I was doing a search while a track was playing and...POOF!

One other thing that produced a crash (once, in testing) was trying to open other applications while VDJ was playing a track. Not that I would do that during a set anyway, but nonetheless... ;)

I also use the mixlab 1.3 skin.
