I am running the latest version of virtual dj 8 on the most recent macbook pro which I only bought for djing.
Every time I run the software, after about 20 mins I will load a song onto one of the decks and the whole software freezes and I have to force quit. Therefore I have not been able to use my new macbook.
Does anyone have a solution for this?

Do you use ContentUnlimited or do you have a external harddrive connected with the Mac?

Using content unlimited

Load always the track to cache!
Only when the download is complete done, load the track onto a deck.
This should eleminate the CU related freezing.

Does it freeze on ALL files or only when using special ones?

It happens with all files, it will be running fine then randomly it freezes when I load a track

Strange, VDJ will normaly only freeze if VDJ does not get a respond from drive or other connected devices.
Can you please tell me what kind equipment you have connected with the Mac?

Is this happening with video or audio files? Are you running video when this happens?
Inviato Mon 30 Mar 15 @ 11:09 am
It happens when nothing is connected.
And just running audio files.
And just running audio files.

There was a patch related to video recently for OS X. If you haven't updated, consider doing that to see if it helps with the issue.
As I'm not a Virtual DJ user, I can' t do any testing myself, but the patch 'might' help. Also, you might want to load Memory Clean to keep track of the amount of available memory. The problem you suggest almost sounds like a memory leak and if it is, then Memory Clean will help you to be able to troubleshoot that issue. You'll see the available memory slowly dropping and never going back up. Additional testing would be needed to verify a memory leak, but it may be a good start to help identifying the issue.

I am experiencing the same problem. I have the VDJ 8 build 2245 RMX controller and macbook pro 13" 4gb OSX 10.9.5. I tried many combinations in my sequence using it including analyzing UC song/video before loading to the deck and I even installed memory clean to clean memory before and during use. But still I get the freeze. I have a gig this Fri and I thought I'll just use VDJ 7. But I tried today and the video is slower than the song. I HOPE THERE IS A FIX ON THIS SOON! I paid $50 for the video content but I'm not able to enjoy it. Is there also a way to improve VDJ 7 video performance? HELP PLEASE.

Have you run "File Permissions" lately on your MBP? If not, please try that.

I have this exact same problem. It was brought to the attention of moderators over three months ago and still no fix. Now with Grooveshark going down VDJ7 is not capable enough to support a full gig. Pathetic.

Same problem here, without controller for me, haven't got the chance to use my controller. But I NEED THIS FIXED ASAP.
