Videos do not load at start up
I am using Screen Monkey to load about 12 video files from the Hard Drive D: Drive. Some of the video cues will load either at or in a couple of seconds after the start-up. Some will never load up we get the loading animation, and I have to place a 'colour' cue there to clear the video cue and then reload the cue.

The video system is an AMD 4400 Dual core with 4 gigs RAM, and ATA133 Hard Drives with Win XP Pro OS.

Any suggestions?

I have reloaded the show in SM and will leave the computer on overnight so the Choir Director and kids can practice with the show.

A really great program!!!!!
I wish Grass Roots would have taken you on to help with the Sunday Plus 3

Re: Videos do not load at start up
If the only clip you have in Screen Monkey is one of the clips that will not load, do they still not load? I am trying to determine whether this is a problem with the actual clip or with the fact that it is trying to load 12 clips at once.

I am looking at a problem where loading multiple clips at once can cause problems but it normally just generates blank thumbnails and still loads. In the next version I will have a feature to disable thumbnail generation as it can cause clips to be slow at loading. I also have made it more intelligent so it does not need to re-generate the thumbnails every time the software loads.

It is so encouraging to hear how much you like the software.

I am aware of what has been happening with Sunday Plus. I am aslightly confused as to why they are ploughing all there efforts into free software and neglecting the money maker. I do not think though that my current employer (Avolites) would take too kindly to me working for Grass Roots.

Re: Videos do not load at start up
I do not know if this will make any difference or not, but when I start up and not run anything else but start up Screen Monkey, the clips appear to load fine.

But, if I have run something else, even if I have closed everything else, it seems to lock up the program.

Hope this helps with a clue to what is going on.

I really wished you worked for EDS, Alabama Medicaid. They put in a new 'and improved' program February 22, 2008. All the program has done is mess up, more and more everyday. I got someone in tech help finally admit that it was not ready, yet.
