Is there a fix that I can run both?

Hi Stefan

I also use VDJ for my shows and found a workaround solution for this problem that I will share with you.

There are a lot of steps at first but no problem after you see the results.

1) Start VDJ and set up your video plugins
2) Minimize VDJ and drag it to the upper right corner.
3) Run your DJ/VJ show like normal.
4) Start Hoster program.
5) Minimize Hoster and drag it to the lower left corner.

When ready to start Hoster do the following;

A) In VDJ go to effects tab then click the Video effects button.
B) Select Sonique plugin, to the right you'll see a Slideshow Delay bar
C) Click on the squire and slide it all the way to the right.
D) Find the Transparency bar below.
E) Click on the squire and slide it all the way to the left.

6) Click on the plugin activate button until it turns black.
7) Then press Ctrl V to clear your screen, you will then see Hoster screen to run your show.

To Return To VDJ

1) Minimize Hoster to the task bar.
2) At VDJ press Ctrl V to reactivate the plugin.
3) Start your DJ/VJ show in VDJ.
3) Restore Hoster from the task bar.

When Ready To Return To Hoster Again.

1) Go to A), 6), 7) you should see your Hoster Screen.

This Works for me all the time.

Good Luck Joe.....
