I have problems with VideoWorks II (version 2.0) when I use System vers 6.02.
It works just fine with 4.3 but with 6.02 the animation just stops.
Maybe I'm working with an old version,is 2.0 really the latest version?
By the way: does anybody know anything about VW professional, the inter-
active version of VW? Is it hard to write the scripts? (esp. if you compare it
with HyperCard together with VideoWorksII HC-driver). Please send (e-mail)
me your opinions!

You don't say how much RAM you have. I ran into the same problem with some of the color movies when I switched to 6.02 (I have a 2 meg Mac II) while on an 8 Meg Mac II these movies fly! The key to getting the animation to work is to slow the speed down from 60 until it starts working, or to get more memory :^). Best of luck, David Seghers (seghers@hpccc.hp.com) PS Virtual memory helps, but not much. Real RAM is what counts.

Yes. 2.0 doesn't work with system 6.0.2. You need version 2.0.2. -Steve Bollinger

With System 6.0.2 you must tell VideoWorks to not operate in the background. I don't recall exactly where this is selected, but from a Preferences menu somewhere there is a check box for "Can Background" or somesuch. Disable this feature and movies will run smoothly (and beyond one frame, even!). -- -- Stephen D.

Turn it off -- now it works. The other fix is to get Videoworks 2.0.2 or thereabouts.
