Black screen and no AVI's
by Greg McKay (SiriusDoggy) on Feb 13, 2008 at 8:38:18 pm

I've just installed OnLocation CS3 on my laptop, previously had DV Rack and it worked fine.
Now, my monitor is black, no picture.
Also, it will not record in either AVI T1 or T2, only as a QT mov file.
If I record as avi t1 I get an error message saying the file is corrupt.
If I record as avi t2 the video will play but it's all garbled digital mess.
QT files play fine.
But still, no monitor???
Any clue?

BTW - Win XP with all the latest updates
Video Drivers updated 2 days ago.

Tried uninstall and reinstall twice.....

I had the same no picture problem and it was caused by an external LCD connected to the laptop. After disconnecting the external LCD and rebooting, the OnLocation monitor works great.

Thanks Rich,
unfortunately that's not my problem. No external LCD hooked up.
Still baffled...

I've seen this before where somebody installed more current video card drivers and got their video back. DANNY
