VSO Software Forum

I recently updated from version 7 to 7. Not only in my opinion, is this version of the software not user friendly, it took 8 hours to convert a file. Instead of the conversion time decreasing, it steadily increased. I've pasted the log file. Please help!!!

You've updated from version 7 to 7. ?

Couldn’t work out what size video you were creating

But when I created dvd9 disks from multiple cartoon episodes, it usually takes overnight.....I just accept this, doesn’t seem to crash or freez as much.

I had some success, running the program in safe mode....

Take care

I sometimes get projects which, seem to freeze, even the preview thumbnails don’t animate......or they just go on forever without completing........

May have found a solution......I removed all the titles except one, then added them ALL again then removed the old previous one.....

Did this twice now and seems to work perfectly.....maybe there is a glitch sometimes when the video titles are read in, but without reporting an error...


Thought it was worth mentioning, especially if you have multiple episodes
