Some Dreams working for some but not others - WHY ???
Published on March 13, 2007 By AzDude In Animated Wallpapers
IN RESPONSE TO A FEW PEOPLE WHO POSTED THAT A FEW OF THE DREAMS DON'T WORK FOR THEM , I WROTE THIS - BUT AFTER I WROTE THIS I HAD ONE MORE THOUGHT - COULD IT BE THE PROGRAMS WE USE TO MAKE THE MPG2 FILES BE DIFFERENT IN THEIR CODING OF MPG2 ??? POSSIBLY CAUSING THE PROBLEM ?? I'M STUMPED ???? I KNOW ALOT HAS TO DO WITH THE VARIOUS COMPUTER MAKE-UP'S I.E. RAM - VID CARD ETC. BUT FOR THE FEW WHO CLAIM TO HAVE ENOUGH COMPUTER - I MAKE THIS POST >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> THIS WAS MY RESPONSE POST ..............................." I don't understand this either why some Dreams work for most people and a select few have a problem with a few Dreams - plain and simple the Dreams are made in the MPG2 format and then converted to the .dream file for download - 1 format for all ( unless you go .wmv but then CPU usage goes up ) - You would think if 1 MPG2 file and 1.dream file works for you they should all work - but they don't.-could it be maybe in the coding of the Mother Programs ( Dream Scene and/or DeskScapes ) were the problem lies ??? - Like I said before all my Dreams are fully tested to work flawlessly on my machine before submission - so I'm stumped why you chosen few have the problems when 100's of others don't . Enough has been mentioned about this in various Dream posts that I would expect WC to address the problem sooner or later - they made the program and it will probably be one of their techs who will fiqure it out - hopefully soon - 'cause some people are getting upset . This Dream thing is a whole new Concept and as such it would be very un likely for it not to have a few flaws ( bugs ) out the gate . Hopefully in time this will work itself out - but I would like to see this issued addressed by WC as to what they think is going on ????? ....... I FILL BAD FOR THE PEOPLE WHO ARE HAVING PROBLEMS - HOPING OF COURSE IT'S NOT SOMETHING I'M DOING WRONG ??? ----- PLEASE HELP WC IF YOU CAN - to shed some light on this issue - Thank You ...." ...... This is the Link to the posts i'm referring to here WWW Link

Can't speak for everyone but most of the people I know that are having problems with the dreams appear to have one thing in common.... NVIDIA. I have a duo core machine, 2 GB ram, and a video card with 256 Mb of ram. Dreams run for while then start to studder then speed up like a Keystone Cop movie. You'd think that by now, Nvidia could get their act together and fix their drivers.   Until then, I won't be using my dreams.

I have had Dreamy results with Pegasus Inc's TMPGENC mpeg encoder. I *highly* recommend you give it a shot if you are creating .dreams.


Thanks for the tip .

Careful, the codec pack can wreck havoc if you use Media Center on Vista.
