I thought we all decided that shared memory video cards would most likely NOT work for videos.

hi sky how ya doin?
thanks for gettin back sorry about the late post but you never know, as promised way back at the beginning of feb i said i would get vdj because of all the years i've been djing in the bars & clubs nothing i've come across for the enviroment it will be be used in can touch vdj(its the dogs kahoonas!). First things first, currys repair shop 'the tech guys' have made one pigs ear of repairing my main lappy its now been back to them under warranty since early feb four times once for a new mother board three times for a fault of their making, the last one happened on friday night when after i had installed vdj (could'nt wait, but not yet ready to use, still had mixmiester as main programme) got to the bar set up and got nothing but WHITE NOISE when i came to play the first track, (EVERYONE READ THIS CAREFULLY) i naturally thought fcuk! VDJ is there a link? switched everything off went through cables,sound card,mixer,amp,the whole lot even up the girls skirts could'nt find anything, switched back on "tawt!" WHITE NOISE shit! not been known for a long fuse, for whatever reason i pulled out the psu cable & shabam WHITE NOISE man gone VDJ totally exonerrated (so you guys check there before any complaints) "tech guys" have by there own admission fcuked up again on the board so what they now proposing is to write off my lappy if they get the ok by way of an apology and hand me hopefully the cost of replacing mine when bought was £800 to spend in store coupons (tawts) so i thought if you, and me been cheeky could check out there site see what there is me throw in maybes an extra £200 and see what results you can come up with. Dont forget i will not be using the video for any heavy mixing per say.
What can i say, your the biz....Tayla
PS. sorted sonigue out glad i did weyyyyyyyyyy heyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

Which is the best programme (again) & simplest one to get round the id3tags issue til its sorted in vdj, like many others i could'nt be arsed to do a comment file to suit all the genres etc( i have been on all my new files) could try to sort all the filing and whatever on back up lappy as a practise trial run then i'd be ready for the new one i hope...cheers,Tayla
