The Streamer Window Freezes while the audio from AFME3.0 is still playing on my feed. Once it freezes clicking stop and start it still is frozen on earlier screen?? This problem occurs whenever i load a level in UT3 = Unreal Tournament 3 the fix is to quit vidblaster and restart it while already being in the level.. but its only a temp fix as it freezes again while in the level! I'm sure this happens with other games as i was having this problem all day yesterday with portal also.

Oh and you can see it frozen in the streamer window not just on my feed!

Hope you can fix this :-\

1. What do you mean with "frozen on earlier screen", please be more specific?

2. What about Program, does that freeze too? And the Camera that does the screen capture?

3. Is CPU usage OK, i.e. not in the red zone?

4. I understand from your post in another topic that this started happening when you moved to a different resolution, i.e. it did not happen at 1280*720?

5. Make sure you are using v0.43.

Whenever i stop broadcasting and start it might freeze the streamer window and theres nothing in the program window while camera 1 isn't frozen! Sometimes while broadcasting i'll lose connection to jtv and it auto reconnects and those windows will stop working and just display the last screen from before i lost connection.

Today i decided to try and broadcast again.. but those windows are still freezing even when i didn't stop or lose connection its random! The only fix as i have said is to close vidblaster and reopen it and it will work again. This bug is preventing me from enjoying your product! :-\ Whats causing this problem?

Thanks,
Jack

I don't know. And without specific feedback I can't even guess.

I think I fixed this. As you seem to be able to easily and quickly reproduce the problem, when is your earliest oppertunity to confirm or deny?

Version 0.45 does not fix it?

I'm also having ths problem, and the most frustrating thing is its complete randomness: The freeze can happen anywhere from 3 minutes to 50 minutes after the stream starts (although once it happens the first time, successive freezes seem to come rapidly afterwards).

It should be noted as well, (for me at least), once the stream freezes, I can't do anything with vidblaster (all the buttons are unresponsive), and I have to CTRL-ALT-DEL to kill vidblaster, and reopen the program. (does that make this a different problem?)

Happened to me during live stream test. about 20 min into 1 hr church service. lost the stream, also lost my recording(wmv) and had to ctrl- alt -del to get back. also made me reset FME and ustream. Then ran fine for 30 more minutes.

BTW VB shows as "not responding" in the task manager. Unfortunately I was in live broadcast and was not able to grab the log file or a screen cap

This looks like a different problem. The bug in this topic makes video stop, but does not hang the program (menu and camera work fine) until you actually stop the stream. Total crash could be anything, not necessarily caused by VidBlaster.

I doubt the log would show anything, but note you can always retrieve it even after a reboot.

Also, when posting bug reports please always add VidBlaster edition, version and CPU usage (some drivers tend to crash over 75%).
