Edy

  You out did yourself. I love the new player. I used it

in clubs the last two weekends. The loading time has

reduced my time by 90%. i can now talk to People

instead of loading my DVD players and finding the wright

remote to start it playing. I am able to load a play list

and go the the Rest Room without worry about getting

back in time so there is no dead play. Now I have time

to impose people and videos on the screen.

Thanks Again

Hi Edy and David,

I think David is right, I just found what seems to be a HUGE bug in the latest VJ-2 beta 4! *I'll try and explain this as easly as possible...

---------------

It seems that when your playing a video and your mouse moves to the "other TV side" and turns into the Crosshair and you let it sit there a few seconds the video's audio starts to studder really bad, and the video itself will start to laaaaag, (sometimes even totaly crash the video!) However, once this starts to happen, if you catch it fast enough and simply move your mouse back to the "desktop side" the audio will immediatly start to play normal and not studder, and the video on the TV or screens will run really fast like fast forwarding a VCR tape, untill it catches back up to "realtime"!...

I have recreated this exact bug, on every PC I can try it on ranging from 1.2GHZ - 3.0 GHZ, Nividia cards, ATI cards, different chipsets, sound card configurations, etc.. It will always do it on every machine. Some not so bad and others totaly unplayable.

It took me weeks to find this, and I kind of found it by accident, but I figured you may want to take a look into it...

I really think it has something to do with overlaying and changing the mouse pointer to a crosshair on top of the video while it is playing?... I have tried everything from mouse hardware acceleration, video card acceleration, differnent sound and vid card drivers, but nothing seems to stop this when it comes to windows or drivers. From all my testing the only thing I've found that seems to help but does not totaly stop it is by turning the Settings; Advanced; Application Priority down from High to NORMAL...

---------

I am going to us a DV Cam and send you a short video clip of this happing, so maybe if I did not word this all correctly, you can see and hear it for yourself.. Its really strange!...

Other then that I have found no other problems with the new Beta 4

Let me know if you or anyone finds a quik fix, or if you allready knew about this... THANKS!! Keep up the GREAT WORK!!

Dj_Shawn

Hi Shawn

  I just recieved my new May Hot video It showes when you open it   on I'm Too ripper four and click on chapters

Title_01_01

  Chapter-1

Title_01-02

   Chapter-1

Title_01_03

   Chapter-1

Title_01_04

Chapter-1

Chapter-2

Chapter_3

And So On. When you rip it it playes the first chapter and every chapter after that as the first one. Even if you uncheck all the chapters and just rip any chapter down the list by itself. It will play that chapter as the first one. If I use I'm Too 2 it will rip all the chapters in a roe and play them back as the chapter you want.This only happens on the video's where the chapters are outlined as above. If the titles are on the end I'm too 4 will work. Hope you can figure this out

Thanks

Davie Lee

Thanks Shawn

  Say by the way have you heard anymore from Edy on the VJ 4 problem? I know he is very busy. I played a gig last weekend and used my VJ 4 player and it worked great on the first night I only used the computer. The next night I used the projector and had nothing but studdering and screen jumping between songs when it faded from one player to the other. When I added more songs to the play list it made the music studder. I wonder if I hook up my lap top to a vega chord to the projector if that will work. I'm going to try it I will let you know.

Keep Playing The Video's

Hi Shawn and Davie,

I've easily reproduced the bug about the mouse cursor over the secondary output. It will be fixed for the 3.0 final version.

I've found also two serious bugs that may cause program crash under certain conditions, but nothing related with performance. I'll try to find if there's something wrong on automatic video playback, but apparently it should work fine...

Shawn, have you noticed anything about video stutter in auto-play mode?

Cheers,

I haven't really played with auto-play mode very much, I've been working on trying to figure out the strange crashes, studdering music and droped frames when mouse overs happen, and alot of different system configuration tests. It seems that your on the right track in fixing the BIG issues and problems, I'll let you know if I find anything else that needs attention  So far looking very good!

*I do think I may have found another glitch that I duplicated on 5 different PC's that crashed everyone exactly the same way... *If you go to the settings ; advanced tap area and raise the Application Priority from Normal, High, or Max, the studder gets worse the higher you go, and at Max, it's a for sure CRASH or total system lock up...

That's about all I have right now, but I'll keep looking.. and let ya know..

Rock On!..... Dj_Shawn

Hi Edy & DJ Shawn

  I played a wedding this weekend and used a dell desktop with a ATI video card and my VJ-4 player worked without any problems. Can you figure that out. I hate draging a desktop around. I hope we can figure out how to make it work

Thanks Guys
