  • whats a better software to replace New Blue 2.0

    Posted by Brent Holland on March 16, 2013 at 10:42 pm

    tried in vain to download and update new blue 2.0 but I keep getting a blue screen seems to be no commitment by them to do resolve the continued incompatabilty problems that plague this product. It is the worst software I ever purchased and I go back to an 8088!

    God even Cubase at their worst wasn’t as hopeless as this crap.

    OK rant over, need to replace New Blue what to do? suggestions. Sonys stuff is just not pro enough and the user interface is convoluted for nothing. Don’t any of these guys ever use windows movie maker. What a great set of templates and easy user interface.

    If you want to use something else, plug-in style, then take a look at Boris Graffiti.

    Yes, Newblue needs to get their act together regarding
    Titler once and for all. As Norman says, you can look at
    Boris Grafitti and also there is Prodad Heroglyph.

    I still use all their older plugins that does not rely
    on GPU support, and they are simply awesome. The
    new GPU requirements is an issue for some users though.

    Brent, if you work with us, we’ll work with you to figure out why your specific machine is having issues. Unlike Steve would have you believe, the current version is working well for the vast majority of people and updating to the current version or updating their video driver or changing some settings has helped innumerable users.

    Don’t know why you always take such great offense to my honest
    and unbiased assessment of Newblue Titler stability Edward.
    I know of your many hard and dedicated work over the years along
    with your many contributions in various other areas and 3rd party
    support which i highly respect, but I am unaware of your affiliation
    with NewblueFX recent developments and surprised at your defense
    of Titler, which needs to be addressed…….If the situation is
    as it is, there should then be an option to turn of GPU support and
    use CPU only for users having issues, Cant that feature be
    implimented?

    Because it’s not completely honest and unbiased. It’s simply your opinion – not the facts as I have seen them – especially over the past 3 – 4 months. Take a look at Grazie’s posts – he’s using Titler Pro 2 just fine and enjoying it greatly. The same is true for the vast majority of Titler Pro users. For those having issues, there have been many great results simply updating to the current version of Titler Pro or updating their video driver.

    And, no, Titler Pro cannot run CPU only. It does require a supported GPU to run. The key is a supported GPU/driver. For example, it will not run on an Intel HD series card. It also will not work with a “Mobile” card when it is low powered mode. So forcing the Mobile card to stay in full powered mode when Vegas is running has resolved issues for many more people.

    There were many changes made to eliminate issues in Vegas which led to the 121205/121206 releases of Titler Pro 1 and Titler Pro 2. Just today, I’ve seen someone having an issue with Titler Pro 1 update to build 121205 and all started working fine. Yesterday I had someone with issues using a video driver from 2010 having issues. Updating to the current video driver solved the problems they were having.

    I understand some of the earlier releases had some issues. But things have changed so much over the past 6 – 9 months and that does not seem to be taken into consideration.

    so Titler Pro requires a supported GPU to run? well I’m puzzled as to why Titler Pro 2 (OFX plugin for Vegas Pro 12) works for me with an unsupported Vegas GTX 600 series card… of course I welcome it, but the host can’t even “see” the card installed (even if it’s listed in the drop-down Video preferences menu)… how in Earth is Titler Pro working flawlessly and so fast with a GTX 600 series in a host that crash as soon as you try rendering anything with them ? (latest drivers, original software, latest Windows and Vegas builds, updated, clean etc ect…)

    The nVidia GTX 600 is a supported card for Titler Pro. Do not confuse Titler Pro’s use of the GPU with Vegas’. They are totally separate.

    yes I know it’s a third party plugin and thus separate from the host software, but you still have to use Vegas to render whatever you have created in Titler Pro 2, Vegas refuses to use the GTX 600 series for rendering no matter what drivers you try, in a sunny day the software will just use the CPU and ignore the 600 series card, on the odd day it will crash repeatedly and force you to disable GPU acceleration…

    they’re simply unsupported cars, so that’s why I’m surprised that rendering Titler Pro 2 media through Vegas is flawless and fast, using 100% of the GPU resources available. I mean, 600 series are supported in other plugins for Vegas but when you try rendering they still crash… it would be awesome if NewBlue FX engineers could pay a visit to Sony/Nvidia and help sort this “no news on GTX 600 series support” depressing situation… ok good job with Titler Pro 2, never had issues with it at my workplace or at home. It gets the job done and offers a lot of “creativity opportunities” for artists.
