Hi Everyone,

I just start practicing video mixing this weekend.
I wanted to try to mix music with video music using 4-2 decks Swap skin.
However, for some reason I'm not able to video mixing using decks 3 and 4.

Is this me or this skin?

I only have 50 videos so far and I wanted to be able to play music
and loop some nice pictures on decks 3 and 4 while playing music on decks 1 and 2.

Again, is it me or does this skin support this?

Thanks

Wow, I thought I got when I found out something else...

Using both the 4-2 decks swap skin and the standard VDJ here is what I found:

4-2 Decks Swap Skin.

Well, I found the swap button and thought I have the answer...

Use decks 1 and 2 for videos (because those are the only ones I found that play the videos) and
use decks 3 and 4 for my music...

I was able to play some art video while also playing music from the decks 3 and 4...
all was going great and was starting to get a hang of it when...

I loaded a video into decks 2 started and I got no video on the main viewer.
I was able to see the video on the deck viewer no nothing on the main...

I messed around but found the only way to get it to work again was to restart VDJ...

The standard VDJ skin didn't fair any better...

Until I can (or someone helps) I'll be going back to using 2 decks and
just blanking out the video when I play music files.
It would sure be very nice to be able to show some video or art work (with no sound)
while mixing my music fjiles but again until I find out how or some one here helps I will just need to work with what I have...

My laptop has 3 gb of ram so I really don't think it's my equipment...

I will continue to check back in hopes that some one will step up to help.

Thanks

Great skin...

Now I can play my music videos and while also playing some screen shots, art work or other videos...

Great Skin just need to do a little more homework to workout the bugs (my bugs)...

Practice, practice and practice...

I have put in about 8 hours these last couple of days.
That may not since like a lot but when you get to road block
it is hard to continue to practice...

How with my major question answer there's no stopping me know...

Sorry, I need to really get this working my Friday...

Thanks again DjDAD for this great skin...
