Don't use a skin with a great resolution than your screen?

VDJ internal video decoder doesn't support all video codecs. You may need to change the avi extension to use Windows Media Player video decoder -- in the config of VDJ

thank you gents.....both fixes worked like a charm on the first try.....cstoll i used your xml tool and set it on yes.........which btw Vdj now does exactly what Traktor does or close to it......Traktor on restart immediately restores the last playlist since you could be rebooting out of a problem then without prompting verifies the database......now my VDJ is doing the same thanks to Cstoll........i reccomend you make that a default in 4.3........

yes it will make the launch of the application considerably slower like w/ Traktor........but for a good reason.

I had this error tonight.
I tried the tool, clicked yes, and it came up with those multiple errors. It would not start without the errors after about 10 times of trying. I copied the xml database and mp3 database files just in case before I ran the tool. Still didn't work.
I then tried deleting the files from the vdj folder, and no error. I'm now analizing my songs...AGAIN!

I know I'm a dumbass for not backing them up. I just need to learn from it now.
To bad it didn't happen yesterday. I have the club in 2.5 hours. :(

Said to hear.

I think its time to have VDJ auto backup database, built into the software.

Its not fun when database gets corrupted

"skin has a higher resolution than the screen"
I occasionally get this when I bring the CPU home for maintenance and hook it up to a different monitor. When I take it back to the club it works fine. I've NEVER figured this out.

"dumbass with the stupid requests"

No it's the dumbass with the stupid requests that "everybody want to hear". Normally I asked these idiots if they went around the room and took a poll or was it a write in vote. :^)
