New-Blue Titler and SVP 12

Were you able to find a solution for this problem? I’m having the same issue. The startup freezes at “creating video plugins” – unless I uninstall ProTitler 1 and 2…then it starts up like a champ.

Hi,
Bottom line – you MUST have a special video card for this software to work.

RATHER THAN……write the complex code to render the graphics themselves…..this company…. made their software using something called Open GL – which itself is a set of canned computer code that can render 2D and 3D graphics very fast and interfaces with the graphics card (so the person writing the software code don’t have to the low level coding), but OBVIOUSLY Open GL doesn’t work with all cards, only select cards.

These APIs (canned interfaces) make writing software fast – but you’re CHAINED to what functionality they support. Here – open GL doesn’t support your everyday standard graphics cards in most PCs.

FYI – There’s really no “external” video cards for laptops, if by chance that’s what you have.

Watch out – the sales rep will “suggest” they can help you fix or solve the problem. Then they’ll tell you – you must have one of these video cards.

It’s amazing this is 2013 and off the shelf the computers still can’t do cool things. They really do have enough processing power – but the design to utilize it soooOOOoooo poor.

It’s sad companies don’t do enough research into these things and take shortcuts………even big companies do this. I have Adobe Photoshop, and it’s 3D functionality uses Open GL, so that functionality doesn’t work on my computer either.

Blessings!!

Any current ATI or nVidia card should work fine but you do also need a current driver. If you have an acceptable card but a driver from 2009, that won’t work. Please make sure you have a reasonably current card and a current video driver and it should work fine.
