Topic: Video stutters

Questo argomento è obsoleto e potrebbe contenere informazioni obsolete o errate.

I'm having kind of a unique problem. I got a real nice Cannon camera for Xmas. It takes really good AVI video with low light. The AVI videos play ok in vdj if I only have one player loaded. If I play it in say player one without having anything loaded in player 2, it plays fine. If I play it with anything at all loaded in the other player, the music plays ok but the video stutters. Anybody have an idea what couild cause this? I really want to do this. I go out on the dance floor and take about 20 seconds of video. Then I take the card and put it in my reader. I can take the video and drop it directly into vdj and after the song is over I anounce.....INSTANT REPLAY and put it on the big screen. The crowd goes ape over it. Thanks

Oh forgot...I'm using v5rev6. My comp is up to specs 3800 AMD 64X2 dual processors 2 GHZ, 2 gig ram, GeForce 7600GS video...

Thanks
 
If I'm not mistaken, I think I read here in the forums (check in hardware support, maybe) about some problems with Radeon video cards. How much ram does the video card have?

Are you playing the video into VDJ directly from the card, or are you storing it on HDD?
 
I'm using an EVGA card with 512 m ram.
As far as playing the video I've done both...from the hard drive and from the card. Still the same. The problem seems to be sporatic. Last night while at home I tried it and it didn't work and when I tried it a couple of hours later it worked fine. The first night I tried it on the job, it worked but didn't the next 2 times, so I quit trying.

Thanks
 
Just for test reasons: Have you tried to convert the AVI files to MPG or other format? If not, give it a try.
 
Try disabling hardware acceleration (in config) and test.

BTW, I was mistaken. Folks seem to be having better luck with ATI Radeon cards than nVIDIA. Also, recommendations are pointing to 1gb video memory for smooth video operation.

Given the nature of the problem, I suppose it could be a background service eating up resources as well. If you open task manager, you can have a look at performance and see if any of the processes are actively running when it doesn't work. Have you optimized the system for performance?

I'll try that disabling the hardware acc. tonight, if it isn't already done.

Yes, my comp has been optimized. As far as programs running in the background, I have nothing running that takes up much CPU (wordpad, K-books). And as far as the video card, I'm not sure whether it would make the much difference to change. My son is a Junior at Wright State Univer. majoring in Computer Science and he says the video card is more than adequate. Don't know where to go with this. I also have issues with Sonique visuals not working properly sometimes. They start off dancing with the music but will freeze after about 5 seconds. Doesn't happen all the time but most of the time.

Thanks, ronnieskar
