I play both video and slideshow when playing mp3

check memory use...
some have reported that slideshow will "eat up" memory

yes, slideshow eats all my 1gb memory to empty, last sessions i opted not to show images (i'll do it when program has upgrade corrcting bugs) but still crashes.
Does anyone knows if i must better put MK2 audio settings to WDM or ASIO?

WDM for all other use than timecode (asio).

works best.

Sorry to hear about your crash, never happens to me.

Does video use eat up your memory too? or is there anything spesicific you do to have a crash?
so that we can isolate the issue

No, video do not eats memory, it refresh each time you load new video.
Nothing special when having crash, just mixing (not any special song that i can issolate), i let first load the piece not to saturat program. I'm starting to think that it can be a problem on time stretch. Have you heard something about problems with time stretch?

timestrech should not be a problem.

or are you trying the new "beta" versions of timestrech (crazy, insane etc)?

Rune,
do you think that it's better to use for my Creative Audigy 2ZS notebook WDM directly or let there ASIO4all. It sound much louder and a little more responsive with asio4all but it's only emulated.

Probably some audio buffer settings for WDM mode could be great, when built into VDJ.

OR rather 48Khz Asio support without "chipmunk" effect.
now when i user directly ASIO driver it sounds fast...

Vdj seems to have some issues with 48khz asio...

I would try 48khz, or simply use WDM drivers if you dont use timecode.

WDM support have been for years in Virtual DJ, and have no issues at all.
And there is little use for the low latency of asio, if you dont use timecode

Thanks for fast reply,
btw. I noticed that in advanced config I am able only to select left and right channel only even if I'm setup to 7.1 in creative drivers.
I dont use timecode, but wanted to have DECK a, DECK B, All samples and prelisten separately...Asio4all is the way around. But that's probably the problem with creative WDM driver :-(

@ dj-in-norway.
No, I only use "Active", i was told is the same issue as old 3.1

PS. I'm just starting another live session, i hope it don't crash again (for the last two weeks i'm having FATAL ERROR message each session)

No more "fatal errors" after 3.3 fix.
Thanks to all
