Can't make menus "first play," "File path not found -10010"
by Bob Korn on Mar 3, 2006 at 7:41:02 pm

Hoping to get DVDitPro 6 working before the weekend.
I've corresponded with tech support, but haven't received a reply yet on my current problem (sent in 2 days ago). I trust they (Kevin) are working on it, but maybe someone here has had this before and resolved it: (it's now Friday afternoon)

I recently bought DDVitPro 6, and have been learning it for the past week+. The first time I tried to use the Simulator, with a menu (template) as First Play, I got this error message:
"File path not found -10010"
-- and nothing would play
If I made a video title First Play, it worked.
Finally I made my own menu background from a gfx, which DID play, and everytime after that all the menus did play in the Simulator. And all the test projects that had not played, now did.

This worked for two days, then on Wed. I got the dreaded error message again with ALL menus, every time, even self-created menus. My previous test projects, that had played, now do not in the Simulator. Once again, any VIDEO selected as First Play works fine, although when it ends (to return to the menu) I get the error message instead.

I removed and re-installed DVDit, that did not help.

I also tired unchecking "load media.. at start up" in the preferences, and made my own menu, but got the same error message.

The only thng I did to the computer between the day it was working and the day it stopped was to buy & load Sonic/Roxio's CinePlayer 3.2, which is a dvd simulator. I removed it once the problems started again, just in case.
But I don't think that would be the cause, since I had this error before.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Bob, do you have multiple hard drives that you are working with? is the application installed in the default path that the installer attempts to install in?

what is the best email address to reach you at?

Thanks.

Scott

Scott,
Thanks for quick reply.

I have three internal drives - the "system drive" for programs, the other two for media. I use this sytem to edit (Avid Xpress Pro).

Dvdit is on the system drive, though I have media on that drive and one of the others, though I've tried all combinations.

I'm not sure what you mean by:
"is the application installed in the default path that the installer attempts to install in?"

If you mean is DVDit in my PROGRAM FILES folder on my system drive, yes. And when I load DVDit, I see the messages of what's loading.

In case it happens to matter, my system drive is not C but E. The other drives are F & G. There is no C drive. (this happened a couple of years ago when I upgraded from Win2000 to XP and at the same time replaced my system hard drive, without disconnecting the other drives first, or something like that.

You can reach me at bakdc @ aol.com

Thanks.

FYI, this was solved by placing the application onto a C drive

Update FYI -
I can now run the program off my regular system hard drive (E) as long as I have something plugged into my usb port - which happens to be my C drive.

(This was Scott's idea, and it works)

I found your conversation about the malfucncioning menu simulations very interesting.

I am experiencing the same problem, but I am getting a different error message. I receive the error "Media Not Found -10009".

It works fine for movies on first play, but no menus, theirs or mine.

I use multiple hard drives as well. The application is on L: and the projects are on G:.

I have a C drive because my memory card reader is always plugged in.

Any help would be great. I'm tryin to complete a project for work and the boss is getting impatient.
