Another answer to the repeating VideoStudio crashes problem

My VideoStudio crashes more than your VideoStudio. ha ha ha ... wait a minute that is not so funny. I believe it has to do with mfc80.dll. But in the meantime, here is how I get around it.

I let the "...has encounterd an error and has to close..." message come up and simply drag it off to the side. I then save my work. Then I go merrily on my way (saving every few modifications). If another error message comes up, I put it next to the first.

I have had 3 of these damn things up there and continued working (saving frequently of course).

It works....even though the programs doesnt.

That .dll file you mentioned is not even a Corel/Ulead one -- it is a 2005 Visual Basic file from Microsoft. And as far as I can see, it is not related to Video Studio, though it certain *is* related to Microsoft's Visual Studio (quite a different program...)

I've been getting a few of these tonight... at first I thought it was a corrupted .wav file as it was always on the one spot of the time lime that it would crash.

Ended up not being the .wav file and now it's a bit of a mystery why this is happening.

This topic has come up before and I also recommended just moving the offending warning box off to the side and continue working. However, that does not work for me anymore - I can no longer just move the box - I have to click Ok or whatever and VS closes.

Thankfully these "crashes" are few and far between, but annoying none-the-less.

I'm in my 4th yr using VS. I currently have VS10+.

Since I installed VS10+ last May , it's been nothing but problems. About 10 mins into a project, VS shuts down. I re-open VS & make an adjustment to the pan & zoom & BANG VS disappears from the screen....NO WARNING.

My project can be either be all photo's or a mixture of photos & video, same crashes happen.

I am very, very disappointed...........I created numerous videos in the past & nothing has happened as bad as this. Am I frustrated? you bet. I really don't want to learn a new editing software, but I am at the end of my rope with VS.

I am waiting for the 2008 upgrade & will give it one more try........If the 2008 upgrade continues to crash, it'll be good-bye VS.

Rich, why wait for a 2008 update when there is v11. Have you tried that?

@Rich I presume you've also followed Ken Berry's advice (in other threads) and made sure to install the latest DirectX 9.0c update.

I haven't upgraded because I most if not all of the VS 11 upgrades were things I didn't need or used.

I don't expect to create any HD video's for the next couple of years. There are no HD burners, only 15mins of HD on a regular single sided DVD disk etc.......

If upgrades are introduced like prior years, we should see one in a few months.

Except that it might have cured your particular problem.

If VS10+ is giving problems then VS11+ would most likely have problems.
Obviously there is something not working correctly.
VS10+ should work with all of it's updates installed.

This has happened to me since version 8. One thinng I found is if I import a lot of video the library get a lot of items in it and that is when it starts to crash. I can delete items from that library and the crash stop.

My 2cents worth. Very upsetting and like one other person said I dont want to have to learn another program but I am fed up.

Interesting! I didn't know that! I've been having increasing crashes lately, and I didn't think it would be because there are more items in my library.

I have two items with a big X through them. If I click on them, VS10+ immediately crashes. These are apparently files that I have deleted from Windows, outside of VS10+.

I have no idea how to delete them from the VS10+ library.

I went looking for them by filename in the Windows registry, but I couldn't find them.

Every program has its kinks.

Better the devil you know than the devil you don't know (sorry, Devil

).

Besides, where else can you get the kind of help I've found in this forum?

I can't remember one problem I've had that wasn't helpfully addressed by someone in here, even if there was no solution, and I've had a few of those.

Another user of VS10+ here. Nothing more frustrating than to have the program just shut down on you without any warning. I'm convinced that it's related to very large projects with a lot of video elements and the way VS10+ saves its projects to disc. I know enough to do a lot of saves during a project and to avoid clicking certain functions. But that's silly for something that's a version 10 product. I'm skipping VS11, but will consider VS12 when it comes out.

For the purpose of relativity what here are we suggesting is a large library.

I have about 6 libraries with about 50 clips each. Is that considered large?

Using v10+. Just was working on a project. Six video clips, three color clips, three titles - total duration of 30 seconds. In Project mode I pressed play...and it hung and eventually crashed. So much for the large project or large library hypothesis.
