Went to use resize for 1st time in a few weeks and no matter what I did, it would freeze my computer, requiring a hardware reset. It would happen after adding the filter, then trying to move forward 1 frame.
Tried 352x480 to 640x480, 640x to 352x, 352x to 320x. (All w/interlace checked.) And at least one of these was tried with the 'smart resize' filter. Same freeze-up.
Very mysterious... Tried other files. Same problem. I'm using Vdub-mpeg2 1.5.10, a build from 9 mos. ago. Found and got current build. Still bad. Converted to a Huf avi w/no resize, then openned avi to resize leaving mpeg2 out of the picture. Still froze up.
Then I began to suspect a systemic problem. I tried to remember anything I might have done to my computer that could make it a bit weird. Only thing I could come up with is that some days ago (and since using Vdub last), I installed a program called "mp3 maker platinum" from "Magix". Today, I uninstalled that program, rebooted, and now the resize works!
What could there be about a © 2002 mp3 program that would somehow cause resize filter*s* to freeze the computer? I do remember answering questions during the install having to do with avi files.
I want to have one system that both runs "mp3 maker" and Vdub resize. Any thoughts, guys?? |
