VideoStudio 9 aborting

Post by Bazza31 »

I have just upgraded to Video Studio V9, and am finding that it 'disappears' on a fairly regular basis - almost as if I had hit the red X in the top right corner.

Is this a known problem??

I installed VS9 two days ago and sometimes I have exactely your problem. Moreover, I always lose what I am doing!

Video Studio 9 crashes when starting

Post by LSHorwitz »

Well folks....we have yet another Ulead beta product......My VS9 crashes when starting.....the Splash Screen shows up but then the program totally disappears with no error messages.....back to the desktop as if it never launched....

Starting in Safe Mode (to disable device drivers) doesn't help.

Just wasted $50 to say nothing of a lot of time.

Anybody have any clues???

Thanks,

Larry

I haven't a clue as to what is causing VS9 to quit abruptly. I can only say that it has not happened to me at all and I have used it for quite a few hours this week (Edit and Share modules). I have not used the Movie Wizards at all.

But my computer was already Video Studio preped before I installed 9.0. I have a 3.0 MHz Pentium 4 HT CPU with 1 GB of memory and more than 100 MB of free disk space with DMA enabled and Write Caching disabled. My paging file is set to 1GB. My video card driver is the latest and greatest. I have XP Home with service packs 1 & 2 installed.

I've got about the same hardware here, 3.2 GHZ P4, 1G RAM, 4 drives @ 250GB each, and tons of video editing and authoring software including many Ulead products and earlier versions of several including Ulead VS8.

I'm sure, based on all of the problems I have seen with virtually every Ulead product I have purchased, that a driver incompatibility of some type will be fixed or some other bug will be corrected. When I bought VS8 last year, and spent a lot of time on long distance phone calls to Ulead to figure out why it would not work correctly, the help desk guy recommended I uninstall Adobe Premier on my system and Ulead should work fine. He was absolutely right and this did indeed fix the problem temporarily. Eventually they figured out at Ulead that they had screwed up, and fixed it.

The software engineering and quality control at Ulead absolutely stinks. Take it from a software developer who has managed huge projects. There have been lip synch issues with their mpeg2 encoders for years and plenty of other bugs. It's really a shame since their products have a lot of nice features and eventually get fixed.....
