Mine takes one automatic screen, and then stops...very odd...the clipboard watcher does work however...

Ah, this is a known issue. It has been reported several times. Sometimes more globals are recorded, but that is depending on client side audio file caching. (if that makes sense )

Don't have xfire installed.
All I get is empty screens now with the date on them, sometimes they are white and sometimes black.
JPGs never worked for me, but PNGs did.
And real weird thing, from time to time it really does take a picture like it should.
Really dont mind the manual part in Vista, but having a real picture after taking a picture would be great

You do start autoscreen as administrator?

Any fix for this client side caching?

Could it be that they are triggered when you press PrintScreen (or an application puts a screen on the clipboard)?

You could try to switch off the "Integrate with printscreen (clipboard watcher)" option.

I'm using the right sounds, I tried it without that option, nothing.
And ya, its weird, totally random times. I've tried watching for a pattern, but theres not one I can find.

Anyways, sounds like xfire mite be evil and demonic, I'll try switching it off and see what happens.

Nope, and since it worked for quite some time I do not intend to.
It is not installed on the system partition, there are full user rights to the folder and I could hardly see a reason to give it admin rights.
Worked like a breeze until the 04.04.08, after that it only took a pic once in a while (1 out of 10), all others are either white or black with the time in it.

hi in there,

Is it me or This VU 9.3 change its behavior so the wav file is just read One time (for first Hof or Glob) ans next read are from memory only ?

seems Autoscreen doesn't work anymore with this VU, only the first global is 'Autoscreened'

can you confirm this?
Thanks.

Nope, just some workarounds. Autoscreen depends on file access monitoring. If EU or the operating system are optimized it will no longer take auto screens unfortunately.

You could try restarting autoscreen after every global, if that doesn't work restart EU after every global, if that does not work reboot your computer after every global

Then again, it maybe worthwhile to just hit the prtscreen button if you see autoscreen does not autoscreen.

hmm odd. Does the manual procedure work for you? (hit prtscreen)

This is not related to this VU. As can be seen in other posts on this page it is a quite common problem from before the VU 9.3 application. I suggest you hit the prtscreen button every time you hit a global

Thanks,

I might have read before posting , but as i've never notice it before, that was very (too) easy to think that was VU related !
