Okay I downloaded the new DivX codec and it seems to be working fine now. I don't know if this has to do with the new WMP or if it has to do with the divX codec being updated recently. No clue. Either way it's fixed.

I got suckered into taking the new WMP and I haven't been able to stream anything from zshare since!

However, I never did have very good luck streaming from zshare (and if the vid there is in AVI form then it always crashes my browser

) so I just go ahead and download everything without trying to stream it.

I really don't like the new WMP very much, though. Almost everything that I liked about the previous version is gone in this one, making it take longer and be more of an effort just to play my favorite playlists, etc. *pouts*

I'm really glad you got the problem solved, though, KC! Whew!

zShare was awesome for me actually. I was able to use it all the time. It was one of my favorite filesharing thingamabobbers (yeah) to use. *pout*

This probably isn't even something you can achieve on Vegas without some serious cookie-cuttering or something, but how do you get the main person in a clip to freeze and then fade out, leaving only the background of the clip? Paul used it near the beginning of his Boys of Summer vid and Kaja used it various times in her Starlight vid. I'd be really interested to know how to do it - is it an Adobe Premier thing or something?

Yeah it's really simple. You could even do it in WMM.

Okay, I am REALLY, REALLY, REALLY freaking out.

I just installed Vegas. It seemed to be working fine until I did something I was probably not supposed to do. Now it's working like WMM. The video won't play in the preview and all it does is freeze until I do Ctrl+Alt+Delete to find out that it's not responding. Holding down the left button on the mouse, I tried to do the sub-create slip but it doesn't work since a little rectangle indicating the section I chose doesn't come up.

If anyone can help, I'd appeciate it. I can't believe I already broke my Vegas.

And if no one can help, can someone at least tell me how to uninstall the program.

Vegas is slow for me sometimes too. My computer is alot older than 2003 though, mines like 2000. We've had so much work done on it though and it still restarts (I hate it when it restarts

)

Good luck though PC, I know what it's like to have a crummy computer
