Forum: PC Version Technical Support - Topic: videos freeze until deck is unloaded

VDJ 6.0.2
Windows XP (Bootcamp)
Mac Book Pro

I'm having trouble with videos. typically the incoming video will freeze during my mix and won't un freeze until I either unload the other deck or jump to another part of the song in the wave form. basically it's like it fell asleep for a second and I have to wake it up hehe. my CPU meter is barely registering so it's not like it's thinking too hard and there is no audio skipping. just a frozen screen until i wake it up.

this was happening to me with 5.2.1 and 6.0.1 - i was hoping that it would be fixed in 0.2 but guess it's something on my end hehe.

any suggestions?

thanks!

Update - the video doesn't freeze if I uncheck "Use Hardware Acceleration" but then of course i can't have any cool transitions or show logo / clipbank.

is there anything I can do ????

thanks

What video card do you have? I bet it is an nVidia. Does it do it if you use virtual dj on the MAC without Windows XP? Prob same prob that tons of had with those damn nVidia cards. If that is the problem, it does not do it to me anymore in windows 7 or vista.

actually yes, it is the nvidia card. i'll test it out on my mac side to see if the same problem exists. i've been wanting to try out the mac VDJ anyway.

thanks
