I'm glad it's fixed itself. I had a look at the images you sent to the bug software. Which was perplexing since it seems that it was the open file dialog that was crashing it.

If it plays up again - let us know - and we'll see what we can do. Not that we did much this time. ]]> Fri, 03 Sep 2010 15:33:25 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic486-problems-with-import.aspx Good news! Everthing works now, but I'm not sure why... Here's what I did just in case it gives you a clue:
After my last post I rebooted my PC (again!), started Muvizu (the older version), declined updates, and immediately quit the program without creating or saving anything. I restarted Muvizu, again declined updates, and lo and behold all the import and video creation functionality worked again! I restarted Muvizu and this time accepted the update. Everything still worked! Including the .ASE import!
It doesn't seem to me that anything I did could have cured the problem, so I'm giving all the credit to you. I don't know what Celtic incantations you've been chanting, but they did the trick.

Thanks,

For example, when I try to place a picture on a backdrop, as soon as I hit "Import" the GPF appears. Also trying to create a video causes the same fault. It seems that any exterior file access is broken ( I can still load all the pre-built images to backdrops).

I tried a system restore to a date before I installed Muvizu, and installed the older version of the program which I know worked when I first installed it, but no luck - same error. Something is seriously fubared with my computer but so far only Muvizu seems affected.

If it helps, I am running Vista Home Premium and Muvizu is (currently) installed in C:\Muvizu

Thanks for continuing to try to help with what is obviously a problem specific to my computer and not Muvizu in general.

Cheers,

Again, thank you for the swift reply. Support like this lifts your software to another level.]]> Thu, 02 Sep 2010 19:36:23 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic486-problems-with-import.aspx
Sorry you're getting a crash, can you email the screen shots to bugs@muvizu.com - and we'll have a look. It sounds like it's unrelated to the update - if you put the old version back on and it's still doing the same.

If you haven't tried already, try restarting your machine as well. It probably won't help but always the first thing to try for any tech support. ]]> Thu, 02 Sep 2010 16:50:31 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic486-problems-with-import.aspx I'm having a problem with Muvizu that I hope someone can help with. I am unable to access any of the import functions (Billboards, Decals, etc). As soon as I click "Import" I get a GPF and the program closes. Importing worked fine on the previous build, so I re-installed that (and turned down the offer of an update) but import funtionality didn't work anymore - I got the same GPF.
I haven't seen anything similar reported on these forums so I'm presuming it's something specific to my PC which is an Acer Aspire 6920g, Intel Core 2 Duo processor, NVIDEA GeForce 9500M GS graphics, and 3GB Ram.
Has anyone got any pointers as to what the problem might be? I have screen shots of the error message if that's any help.
Thanks.]]> Thu, 02 Sep 2010 16:42:03 GMT
