Hi,

For a year now DVDit Pro HD has been working fine. Now, when I go to launch it, I get the splash screen very briefly and then it quits. I uninstalled it and re-installed it. I put my CD key in and it fails to activate saying the key is invalid.

Any solutions for this problem?

Regards

It is likely that activation server is experiencing problems. I suggest trying it again after few hours.

I have the same problem - I was using everything fine last week and now I tried to start DVDit Pro HD and it gives me the splash screen and then nothing. No errors. I deinstalled and reinstalled and the registration went fine. Install finished without any errors. I restarted the computer - I clicked it to start and the same problem. Just a Flash of the splash screen and nothing.

You might have the option "open recent project at startup" activated and that project might be corrupted, go to your projects folder and open up a project that you know works well.

Nope - Didn't work. Got a sonicmpgvout.dll error from the event log, which I took care of. And now the samething from a project or from the Desktop Icon. One quick flash and nothing.

Is there any startup log I can look at?

Did you make any changes to your sys when the error first showed up, for example a new windows update maybe ?

In a way - Yes. I added another quad processor and 4G more Memory.
I got it to work by:


1.) Backing Up the Registry - just in case...

2.) Deinstalled DVDit from the Add/Remove Programs in the Control Panel.

3.) Searching the Registry for every instance of DVDit or Sonic and deleteing them. (Not Panasonic - "Sonic" is in the word).

4.) Finding All in Areas on the disks that refered to DVDit. Mainly the Shared area in ProgramFiles (x86) and any thing else. I did not remove any project files - so they are still good.

5.) Rebooted in safe mode and searched Hidden Folders for any referance to DVDit - and removed them. Had to remove Everybody denied access from a few folders to check them (Local Applications, etc.). Restored them to the proper original permissions after that.

6.) Rebooted normally.

7.) Reinstalled/Reregistered.

8.) It worked. rolleyes.gif


So my next question? What is happening to DVDit Pro HD. I see posts that say it is no longer supported. What are people switching to?
