Plan B isn't working either. For some reason, it gets past the "building slideshow" step and then starts importing video, which it does repeatedly for about 2 hours. The hard drive then fills up (on the laptop, mind you) and then I get some weird error about "reaching the end of the stream without a start point." Apparently I'm the first person to ever get this error as there is no info about it on the internet.

I will try to figure out more about this bug, but if I can't get it, I will have to start over from scratch in some other (competent) program. I'm glad I'm using this through an institutional version of the whole post-production pack. I would be irate if I had paid full price for a personal use version.

I will keep updating here, but for right now I'm sort of just spinning my tires.
