Motion crashing even though i’ve turned off video on desktop Black Magic!
Motion crashing even though i’ve turned off “video on desktop Black Magic”!
I can’t open a new or old project…
I use Motion 2.0.1 on a G5 2,5 GHz with Studio Pack.
Any ideas???!
Is there any other place than Preferences, where I can turn off “Video on Desktop”?!?!Thanks
Lars.

Try trashing your preferences and starting Motion again.
I usually just rename mine by adding “old” to the start of the filename. That way if the problem is NOT the prefs file, I can easily restore my settings by changing the name back.

Thanks, but it still did not help… Then it just prompt the project settings and still dosen’t open a new project.
I can open Motion as allways, but can’t enter Preferences, new project or old project.
Do you have any other ideas!?Lars.

Hey Lars,
Trying opening the Console (found in /Applications/Utilities) and post what it says when Motion crashes. Also, post the crashed thread from the crash reporter (appears when Motion dies).
This information should give you a hint as to what’s wrong on your system.

Thanks Again!!!

Yes, the answer is crystal clear now.
Seriously, no one on these forums understands this stuff any more than you do, Lars. It’s deep geek, code-speak for Unix code.
Sending the report to Apple seems like a waste of time, we know. But Specialcase asked you to post it so let’s see what he’s got to say.bogiesan

Hey Lars,
From what little I understand, one of the crashes in your log shows that it died when you were mousing into the toolbar. When, exactly, is Motion crashing? Precislely: what are you doing at the moment of crash? Just mousing into the toolbar shouldn’t cause a crash (of course), and the crash logs don’t look like the ones people have posted for bad installs/frameworks, so I’m at something of a loss.

Hi..
It crashes when I try to open a new or old project and I can’t touch any of the controls in the File Browser, then it crashes to.
Help!
🙁Lars.
