I love your program but have a problem in both my laptops. It happens sometimes twice a night during my shows. I can drag the song into the playlist but when I want it to play I get a program not responding prompt and I have to log off and re-boot.
I have the latest updates and am having the same problem like I said in both computers. They have Vista Home, and are almost brand new.
Please help me

What kind of files are you playing? Also does that happen with one particular time, or it is random?

Yes it does. After I re-boot I can go back to the same file and it works just fine

We will investigate this problem. We have a release scheduled on next week and hope it will behave better.

Hi with regards to the freezing twice in one night i too have this problem and i am running xp,and i too think this is a great program.

I have found that if I don't run the fill in music and I turn off all programs that run in the back ground, like Virus programs and any others that are not needed to run the karaoke program it will just about do away with all of the freezing issues. I now have a new computer with 8 gig of memory and the i7 processer and can run the fill in music with out any troubles. Hope this information helps others

Hey Phil & Greg

If Karaoke Pro freezes and you are using the fill-in playlist and the program freezes, the work around for now is to clear the fill-in playlist. Just click on the clear button in the fill-in playlist. This "should" clear the freezing problem and then you can repopulate the fill-in playlist and Karaoke Pro should work as advertise. The hardest part of trying to correct this freezing problem is to recreate it. This problem is so random that it is almost impossible to recreate it. All we know is that the playlist is definitely the culprit that is causing this problem. Maybe Piotr or Adam will be able to redesign the fill-in playlist in the near future

the randomness makes it so hard. i use Vista with only 2 gig of ram and it rarely freezes even with the fill in, but others look at it funny and it freezes. if you are so inclined, i (before it stopped freezing) ran the logging and sent Piotr the logs the next day, sometimes 5 or 6 (sorry bout that Piotr ) to help give real data. the more info, the better.
