Is this legal? It’s banned in some countries.

In Australia and Britain, the use of subliminal advertising has been banned with severe consequences for those who disobey the strict laws. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in the United States will now revoke a company’s broadcast license if the use of subliminal messages is proven.

You need to change the actual duration of the event in the event properties. Clicking and dragging the event, as you have discovered, causes it to repeat.

I generally stick to Verbatim matte and AquaAce inkjet printables. The AquaAce’s cost triple that of a standard DVD blank, but the glossy inket printable surface is fantastic and adds a very professional touch.

I have had some returns with Sony’s, but none with TDK.

chkdsk, as far as I am aware, is only invoked by the user via the explorer tools menu. I initially suspected a cross-linked file, but I have put it down to a corrupt veg file.

The problem has not affected any of my other edits, thankfully, only just the one small 11 minute project.

Probably the only downside is not being able to tell if and what stabilisation effect has been applied to a clip and undoing it, say, 2 days later because you wanted to try a different preset. I was expecting to see hundreds of key frames in the pan and crop window after applying the effect, but nothing gives any indication. It probably should be added to the plug-in library so it can be undone easily or tweaked.

I guess I could just reimport the media and re-do that section as a workaround in the meantime.

I ran it manually.

It works great, although can sometimes soften the output due to excessive cropping. It turned a shaky hand held shot in which I was spiralling around my subject into a useable shot for me, but I had to play with the presets to get the right effect I was looking for. It has my thumbs up.

It appears to be disk related because the system dismounted and remounted the volume during chkdsk (scan for bad sectors) and the problem reappeared without the reboot. I am running RAID 1, so there could be a problem with mirroring.

There are a few disk controller errors appearing in Windows event viewer that I am investigating, but some of those errors last appeared way before this problem started, appeared occasionally across different disks at different times, and have not occurred at all during this most recent event. Possibly a red herring.

Otherwise, I have very little to go on. I have rendered the project and left it at that.

Thanks for all your help.

Yes, Theo. It is affected as well. Thanks for the suggestion. I have no option but to resort to rendering out the edit as I finish it to just to 2 files: 1 with and 1 without the added audio track and hope I don’t get requests to change the edit too much.

I tried saving the file with media copied under ‘Save As’. SVP10 completes the first pass of the save, gets to 99% then crashes. I have sent the problem reports to Sony as suggested by the dialog box.

The strange thing is that all is well with the projects until I restart the PC. It’s less than 6 months old and chkdsk revealed nothing. I thought I might have cross-linked files. In my other post, I mentioned it was repeating clips. It is only selecting sections at random from the first 9 minute clip and replacing video in clips 4 until 8 which is further along the time line, all the way to the end of the segment. It repeats the rogue clips as well. Video edited from clips 1-3 remain undisturbed. This is very peculiar.

Anyway, rendering out the edit when I finish is better than having to start all over. It does not appear to have affected my other projects, so perhaps this particular veg file is corrupted. If it starts spreading to my other projects, I’m in deep ****.

Which is the version I installed a month ago with the upgrade offer 🙁
