[aidan97]

Hi guys
There this really annoying bug that happens when I open A.S pro 9. When I open a project and click the play button on
the timeline it wont play no matter how many times i click it. Its happened quite a few times and its HEADWRECKIN'
Can anyone help?

Just to make sure, you are clicking on the PLAY button here? How many frames is your animation range here?

Having never had this problem I'm wondering if it's something as simple as you not having any frames in your animation.

I start off with 500 frames. Im clicking that button too . Thanks very much anyway

Well these things often turn out to be something simple so it's worth eliminating the obvious first. In this case I have no idea what's causing your problem. Hopefully someone can advise.

Do you have a lot of layers and other items such as audio actions to process. This could be hold up the play button. Could be more down to the processing via the graphics card speed.

Actually thats probably what it is because ive got loads of layers and audio. Is there any solutions to this?

I guess more ram better processing speed and improved rendering might help a little. Worth checking on background apps in use and using a monitor for the processor. When I checked my little handy work on rendering it shot through the roof on the monitor

Thanks i looked at how many apps were running with program monitor and i had a load running so i cleared them and now
its working smooth as butter! Thanks
