Prob. w/ Trial Editions of Software - Locks on opening file

Post by NDFan2001 »

Every time I try and use my trial edition of software I go to open a file and the darn program locks up. Anyone able to assist. This is with DVD and VSE11.

What is the format of the file you are trying to open? Are you certain you have the necessary codec on your computer? If it is an .avi file, for instance, it could really be a DivX or XVid mpeg-4-type file which happens to use .avi as its distribution format. However, to open it, you have to have the XVid or DivX codec on your computer.
