Well we've had "load from stream error" problems reported before but I don't recall anyone else reporting the blank thumbnail bit as well - so your problem could be slightly different but here are two different methods that have worked for people in the past.

Method 1

If you don’t want to lose all your custom directories or the pointers to all your video, image, audio, and titles, do the following: (Note: The file system path is valid for Windows XP Home. If you have another operating system, the file system path may be different.)

1. Save the contents of the following directory in a Temporary directory: “C:\Documents and Settings\<USER>\Application Data\Ulead Systems\Ulead VideoStudio\8.0” Then Delete that 8.0 Folder
2. Delete the “C:\Documents and Settings\ALL USERS\Application Data\Ulead Systems\Ulead VideoStudio\8.0” folder.
3. Uninstall Video Studio 8.
4. Install Video Studio 8.
5. Restore your custom Library directories and pointers to your clips as follows: Copy the following files from your saved directory “8.0”:
VS_Video.dat,
VS_Title.dat,
VS_Image.dat, and
VS_Audio.dat
and paste them into
C:\Documents and Settings\<USER>\Application Data\Ulead Systems\Ulead VideoStudio\8.0.

IMHO, the way to prevent this problem in the future is to turn off Write Caching (when editing with Video Studio) as follows: Control Panel/System/Hardware tab/Device Manager/{double click on a disk drive to open Properties window}/Policies tab/{uncheck “Enable Write caching on the disk”

Method 2

Have you tried this: – works for some
1) Clean up C:\Windows\temp directory. Clean up all files in C:\Documents and Settings\[UserName]\Local Settings\Temp folder. Uninstall VideoStudio 8 from control panel Add/Remove programs.

2) Delete folder {4F1DA6BF-3614-48A1-9970-9E90F646789E} in
C:\Program Files\InstallShield Installation Information (Please set "Show hidden files and folders." in folder option in OS)

3) Delete the folder " Ulead VideoStudio 8.0" folder in C:\program
files\ulead system

4) Run Regedit from Start/Run in Windows task bar

5) Delete folder {4F1DA6BF-3614-48A1-9970-9E90F646789E} in
KEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\

6) Then reinstall it and any patches.

do you know the reason why this problem has occured?

i was using vs8 earlier today and everything was fine, my pc has been off until tonight when this occured.

Sorry I can't - but don't despair yet - there are still a lot of knowledgeable people around the world on these forums - perhaps one of them will be able to help you - might need to let the world rotate a bit first though.

briancee,

ive kind of solved the load from stream error!

i created a new desktop account and opened vs8 from there, works perfectly!

this new desktop is now dedicated to vs8 only! also, vs8 works a lot faster on this desktop!

How do you establish a desktop account to start VS8?

to establish a new desktop account go to start, settings then control panel.
double click 'user accounts' then 'create an account'

give it a name then when you enter the account from the welcome screen you can open videostudio!

i only run videostudio, epson print dvd and adobe audition on my account, all other programs (office, internet etc) are on another account!

things seem to run faster this way!!

This has got to be the most frustrating program I have ever encountered. I am about to delete it from my system and put a pair of scissors through the disk. It's total crap.

Zeuster, I detect a cry for help!
Why don't you post a question on the board? Tell us what is happening, the specs of your computer, the specs of the files you are trying to handle and what exactly it is that you are trying to do. Maybe someone can help.
