Text and Image Overlays disappear at end of recorded mix after export

dj720

I recently recorded a live mix and after exporting to .mov file, I noticed the last 5-6 minutes of the mix, the text and image overlays suddenly disappeared but I did not disable them at anytime during the recording. Has any one else experienced this and is there a solution?

That's odd. Can you try exporting just that section of the video again and see if it still happens? (you can select the start and end time to export using the blue bar at the top of the export window)

I'll try that again with another recording, I already deleted the file and didnt notice the overlays til I burned it to DVD lol. I'll keep you guys posted if it continues.

Ok so I narrowed it down to an encoding issue and it works fine..Recently I did another mix and now the audio cut out about 30 minutes into a one hour mix. Im using the same setup as Ive used in previous mixes. The meter was reading sound during the mix. I stopped the recording and then proceeded to shut down Serato and ME and then went to check out the .m4a file to make sure it was loud enough and I then noticed the audio was only 30 minutes long. I exported the mix and the video was all there but the audio cut out. Is it just me or are others having this happen to them also?

ok so i tried another recording and it turned out fine. Still curious as to why it happened in the first place. Perhaps if you redline too much it stops recording?

That's odd. Unfortunately the error reporting for audio recording has a bug - so we can't get any useful information from the log file. I've fixed this for the next version. Are you writing to your main/internal hard-drive? Sometime audio recording can stop if it can't write to the disk fast enough (i.e. it gets too backed up) - which would be more likely to occur if you were writing to an external hard-drive.

I was writing to my Main drive. Its a hiccup, just sucks that i had to re-do a whole mix again.
