Subject:RE: Crash on Track Drag Reply by: fREEmASTER Date:2/2/2007 7:07:59 PM No, that does not stop the crashing. This is a serious bug! This version of Acid is crashing every couple of operations and now I've got autosave turned off (not that it was really helping anyways). I've been a serious user since the beginning when I won a free copy back in 1999. This is definetly a rough release like their team doesn't have it together no more. Also getting another bug: when selecting disc-at-once from the tools menu the window loses focus and acid is no longer the active window. Okay, this is kind of interesting...I left Acid running after getting the error message and taking time to post. Playback was still looping and I had not closed the error message. I was able to save and just kept working, but then moments later it of course crashed again. This time it doesn't look good. Stuck with the not responding hourglass and no sound running this time either. Well, it's a good thing I'm just about done this project. I'm definitely going to have to step back from this release before going on to the next one. Message last edited on2/4/2007 10:29:57 AM byfREEmASTER.

6.0d is crashes whenever I drag tracks on the timeline while playing.

Also just crashed while playing and dragging the vertical scroll bar!

And now again trying to adjust view while playing.

Definitely UNSTABLE.

Just wondering how common this is.
