GPL Movie Studio isn't cooperating

What do I have to do to get this damn thing to work?

I launch GPL from the program and start recording. Then I stop
recording. When I exit GPL I get a dialog "This is not pbf file",
then a dialog "Cannot open c:\sierra\gpl\test0000.pbf". The directory
is full of GPLss*.pbf and test*.pbf files, all 0 KB in size.
GPL2AVI works, but this program would seem to offer more in the way of
editing.
Any help would be appreciated.

I'll bet you're using the D3D renderer... I had the same problem as you last
week. GPL doesn't support writing the PBF with D3D (thus 0 byte files).

IIRC, the only way to get screens in GPL is to hit "Prt Scr" then exit GPL
and paste the clipboard into a graphics app.

One of my projects this summer is to write a little app that grabs and saves
the BMP screenshots at intervals.  Then convert them to PBFs (if possible)
and use GPL Movie Studio from there.

For some reason GPL2AVI doesn't work on my W2K system (locks up with 100%
CPU usage).

I'm guessing you are using the D3d patch for gpl.  Get movie studio 2 it
works with d3d.

Thanks, but that's GPL2AVI which doesn't like my Win2000 system for some
reason.  I was wondering what this "movie studio 2" is that Kirk was
referring to.

I'm not sure where I found it :(  You might have to start a new thread,
asking where it is
