DDReam crashes when trying to open mp3
I've never had this problem before. Tried opening a new song after months of not touching DDReam and it just stops working. I can open .ds files perfectly fine.
Even if I try to open the mp3 instead of the .ds it crashes. idk man |

Re: DDReam crashes when trying to open mp3
I'm 75% sure ddream doesnt like variable bit rate mp3's.

Re: DDReam crashes when trying to open mp3
if the song is like 20+ minutes this could happen, or also just a very large file size
sometimes mp3's are encoded wrong (especially if you downloaded it from like a torrent or somewhere you know you're not supposed to) try to re-save it with audacity (at the risk of lowering the file size/possibly quality) uncommon bitrates also sometimes break ddream if ddream is failing to open ALL mp3's though try redownloading the program. (ps try restarting your computer, unplug it, wait for 30 seconds after all its lights are off, and then plug it back in and turn it back on) Last edited by Ristyy; 03-16-2017 at 11:32 PM.. |

Re: DDReam crashes when trying to open mp3
It's happening with literally every mp3 I try to open. Has nothing to do with file size or song length
Already deleted and re-downloaded DDReam. No change Last edited by Poison-; 03-16-2017 at 11:32 PM.. |

Re: DDReam crashes when trying to open mp3
First time I'm hearing of it. I'll definitely look into it more though

Re: DDReam crashes when trying to open mp3
Do you have authentication whatever turned on?(screen dims and a message pops up asking if you're sure you want to do the thing you're about to do)

Re: DDReam crashes when trying to open mp3
Friendship with ddream studio ended.
Arrow vortex is my best friend now. |

Re: DDReam crashes when trying to open mp3
It looks good but I'm kinda a don't move if it's not broken kinda person. I rarely have issues with ddream.
That said it seems really good to make x-mod files, and mac has spawned my interest in attempting another one... So I'm gonna tinker with it later, but I know people have kinda been moving to it lately. Seems pretty good though. |

Re: DDReam crashes when trying to open mp3
I am kind of this person myself. What ultimately made me switch over is that DDReam kept crashing on me when inputting notes for long sessions at a time if there's lots of notes in a song and is a moderately long song (4-7mins)

I planned on giving it a test run on two files I'm working on sometime after I finish charting them. Because I like making X-mod, just DDReam sucks and SM is literally cancer for doing more than syncing songs using sheet music. (And I do base sync in ddream anyways, so it's still pretty useless.) Only if you want to cripple yourself from intuitive and convenient editors. |

Re: DDReam crashes when trying to open mp3
This is a very stupid solution but it worked for me.
I was having the exact same problem, any song i opened it crashed. I think i asked hi19 and he told me, try minimizing after you open the song. It worked. |
