can i roll back to n5.4 and open n5.5 files?

having trouble with n5.5 freezing after about 3 hours, also i have to re-install the 5.5 update everytime i boot up in order for n5.5 to see video files.

Something is really wrong, this is a slave PC that runs Cubase 6 for 10 hour sessions without any issues.

just got a blue screen as well so lost the initial error message. :neutral_face:

hi indiescore,

not sure if this helps, but i was able to open a couple of 5.5.5 projects with v5.5.2 and 5.5.3. I didn’t get any error messages on opening. On saving it did mention the version discrepancy and hit me with a prompt about saving a ā€˜new version’, or ā€˜overwriting’.

note: they were pretty simple projects - not sure if there’s possibly some new functionality in 5.5.5 that I hadn’t employed which might give you an issue if opening in an older version…? (i.e. - attempting to open a 5.5.5 in 5.1 gave an error about some corrupt data).

also: i’m on a mac so not sure if a pc would react differently…?

meant to add: i don’t have 5.4 so couldn’t try that specifically.

good luck!

here’s the error i received trying to open Nu 5.5 with Nu 5.1. (attached screenshot)

project opened, but warning about ā€œproject could not be restored completelyā€ is pretty disconcerting.

not sure if 5.4 would give you the same issue - i would imagine so…?

Thanks for the input, I reinstalled FireWire drivers and that seems to have stopped the crashing, but still having issues with video not found due to invalid format with every boot up, every day, :confused:
