Hi Zare,
Was the looping made at the end of a song? (i.e. less than 8 beats to be played in the song.) If so, this is indeed a bug which has already been communicated to the dev team. For the time being, you cannot loop more than the number of beats remaining to be played in a song.
For example, if there are 30 beats left in the song, you could loop 8 or 16 beats, but not 32.
If you attempted to loop 8 beats anywhere else in the song, then I'd be looking at another problem outside of the software.
On the other hand, if you're trying to load a sample in the turntable, and this sample has been analysed as having less than 8 beats total, you cannot loop it 8 beats because you will get a fatal error.

You mean you have the demo?. Or have you not put your serial number into your profile?.

How can you have a Pentium 3 2.8GHZ? I think you mean P4
but the bug exists like internodal said earlier its known and being worked on by the dev team.

Zare let's make it clear first as Bagpuss suggested: Which version of VDj are you using?

Well, Zare, that's a very curious issue.
I have tried to reproduce the bug you described, but the software turned out to be flawless.
The only way I managed to get a fatal error was, as mentioned earlier, if I tried looping more beats that the number of beats remaining to be played in a song.
I can only guess, in your case, it could be an O/S or hardware problem. It could be anything. Maybe someone who's had hardware issues could help you better.
On another note, if you're using a crack to unlock the software (which I'm NOT saying you are), then it may not be entirely stable. Whether you're using the demo version or a crack is none of my business. But, I know for certain that the full version is quite good and very stable in almost every way. The demo version is also supposed to work like the full version, except for a few limitations. But, I doubt the demo would crash at the first sign of a loop.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Everyone note that this has nothing to do with the loop bug when the length exceeds the songs remaning duration, this is a problem which has been reported before, It should only occur on an 8 beat loop, not 16, 32 etc.
1. I think this bug is associated with certain cracked versions as 3 out of the 4 people that have had this problem were "No license users", So If you are useing a crack it's because of that, in which case the solution is to buy the FULL version from this site.
However, I'll take your word that you are running a demo.
2. Go into config and make sure to adjust "MAX LOAD" to "ALWAYS", this loads the track into complete memory regardless of it's length, this is the reccomended setting if you have enough RAM, and could fix your problem, also it is advisable to scan all your tracks before loading them onto a deck.
or
3. You didn't mention RAM, if you have 512mb of RAM or over this shouldn't be a problem, increasing Virtual memory is always a useful thing to do too!, however if your memory is lower than this then please inform us.
or the most likely
4. Are you seperating 2 channels and utilizing them sound cards of yours?, i.e playing music back from the speakers whilst pre-listening the other deck, their is a special driver you need to make this work, I'll find you the link if this is the case.
Please get back to us.

Zare, I'm really sorry but it has now come to our attention that you are in fact useing a cracked version, as the demo version doesn't allow you to seperate the 2 channels.
Every single cracked version has bugs, they differ, but each have their deliberate or non deliberate bugs, If you want to use VDJ trouble free or even proffesionaly you'll need to BUY THE FULL VERSION.
It is a very affordable and a worth while product, and buying the product supports it's development, If everyone here had a crack their would be no version 3.1... I assure you, so If more and more people use the buggy/illegal cracks then we might not see a version 4.
Hope to see you as a FULL REGISTERED USER SOON.
Regards Bagpuss.

I second that motion, Bagpuss.
Zare, I'm not paid by anyone to sell anything. Bagpuss and I are not here to hard-sell the software to you. But, the fact is, lots of cracks are unstable and/or incomplete pieces of software.
I can only tell you, if you're serious about buying the software, then go for it. You won't regret your decision.

Nice work Bagpuss!
I saw how you were baiting the line and then reeled him right in, flapping his gills.
@zare: no offense intended toward you, as I'm sure you'll make the right choice and purchase the full version. We all have paid and are happy with VDJ, and just want to make sure the developers aren't ripped off.
Also, I can assure you that I use the loop function quite frequently and it has never caused me to crash! You do have me wondering though, what would happen if I tried to loop in a song that doesn't have BPM's figured (sometimes, though rarely, VDJ will not be able to determine the BPM for a song and leaves that field blank.) If it's a dead night at the club tonight or tomorrow, and I come across and un-BPM-able song, I will try it and report back next week.
