Crossfade?

[acco2]

I've tried searching through the forums and while it seems other are having similar problems, I can't seem to find a suitable solution.

 

Having used version 2.41 with no issues at all, we were recently forced to purchase the latest version due to a system crash. Our back up disc would not install the software to the new Windows 8 system.

 

We are trying to put together what should be a very simple video - using the same format as we have successfully used for 5 other films. Yet we cannot get the simple crossfade function to work.

 

It is jumpy and just doesn't work - yet was fine on the older version.

 

I have tried the other forum posts regarding this, yet have not had any success, though I may easily be missing the answer or using the wrong search terms

 

And so, is anyone able to help to get a good crossfade in 3.02?

 

Or, does anyone know if it is possible to go back to the version we were very happy with but on Windows 8?

 

I'd really appreciate any advice.

 

Thanks

As you have discovered, 2x versions won't install to Windows 8, but that O/S isn't the problem; VP is.
