I just tested it with my PC (Win 10 x64). No problem. It did not freeze on me.

That's weird. Did you get any pop up message? Mine just made a windows sound. Im gonna try it on my windows 7 lappy.

Just confirmed it on my windows 7 laptop. And this time i had mp3 set so that doesn't play any role

I also tried this. While song was playing i pressed record. Music continued to play but the whole program froze.

Magic.DJ check again the steps. I missed one.

***Also unless you delete the file that is the recording on the desktop, it will always freeze as soon as yoy press recording. Before this happend, you would get a pop up message asking you if you want to replace that file.

Do you have an Nvidia card? If so, try updating drivers or disable useDXVA
 
Posted Wed 22 Jun 16 @ 3:48 am
Drivers are up to date although i have no clue what the drivers have to do with this.

Adion did you test it out?
Press record (without having nothing loaded on decks)
The press stop and then record again.

No freeze here either (Windows 10, Nvidia GT745). Followed exact steps.

I tried it again with your new steps, Works for me. I got 3 (tried it 3 times in a row, START/STOP/START/STOp/START/STOp) files on my desktop. (My desktop PC has ATI)

I'll try my GIG laptop cause that has an Nvidia in it.

just tried it in Gig Laptop with Nvidia (Driver 368.39) (DXVA set to yes), no problems.

I got it on both PCs. Ill try to rename settings xml file temporary and see if it still does it. If it does I'll post a video.

Changing name temporary settings.xml solves it. But why is it doing it with my settings?
 
Posted Wed 22 Jun 16 @ 4:15 am
Ok found the problem!
In the record settings.

If you set RecordOverwrite to 'ask' instead of change filename. It will freeze if you follow my steps.

put your settings.xml back , open VirtualDJ, goto Settings-->OPTIONS tab and choose the "modified settings" from the top menu.
Try to change back to default (one-by-one) the ones that could be related to recording and video and see which one is the guilty :)

Yes that's what i think is happening! Must have changed when you guys changed the dependency for windows! Before you would get a pop up.
