[SOLVED] Importing clips causes a crash on vista 2 years, 3 months ago #5010

Every time I try to import clips on windows vista, I either get a crash or it crashes when I try to add them to my edit/timeline. I am really excited for LW, but if I can't do anything... it's probably just vista

To make Vista more 'civilized', user-controlled & compatible with 'the rest of the world' - look here and here. Also, remember that Vista Business license allows you to 'downgrade' to XP legally.

Well, i have the exact same problem with windows 7.
Window Vista has been available now for 5 years, i don't think anybody is waiting for a program that requires downgrading to an OS that is over 10 years old to make it work.
I needs to be addressed and fixed, it as simple as that.

Please read this for current codec support. This article also includes an address where you can upload small examples of clips that are causing you problems. Lightworks is absolutely not restricted to running on Windows XP: all the latest development work is done on current versions of Windows.

The more information you can give us about your source material, the more help we can give you.

It was a friendly advice based on my 20 years of experience with DAW/NLE on PC workstations and Windows OSes. If you need to be addressed and fixed - deliver proper information, as described here. It's as simple as that.
