Hoster 3.321 locking up following video

[bryant]

A few weeks ago my wife was using hoster 3.3 at a show and mentioned the program locked up after using a video from another program.

As some of you may already know, I use virtual DJ for the videos and audio w/slide shows before the Karaoke portion of the show begins about 45 minutes later, as she was doing. We have learned that anytime after playing a video from VDJ, we have to deactivate the video (second display) screen within the VDJ program, as VDJ somehow has priority over the second monitor. If we don't, we get (and expect) a Hoster crash. Hoster locks up and reports a "crash and must close" error after hitting the play button to begin a karaoke song.

What is happening now, but is hard to duplicate as it seems random, that even after we Deactivate the second display video from VDJ, hoster still may crash sometime,. almost as if the VDJ program didn't fully Deactivate its second monitor, although she saw the Hoster SND on the second display.

I'm sure this is not entirely Hoster's fault, or maybe not even at all, but can someone fill me in with what may be happening from one program to the other. Obviously a weird conflict is going on between the two programs, which we understand and thought we had control over.
