Still Crashes iDVD 06 and MovieGate also - Version: 2.8.1, 4/12/2008 09:29AM PST

Over a year ago I wrote that AHP, Instant Hijack feature crashed iDVD, where the themes of iDVD would not load but instead iDVD would crash at this point. I said that Unsanity was working to fix this problem (Apple also confirmed that AHP was the culprit). At this point, using Tiger 4.11 and the latest AHP 2.8.1, the problem still exists, HOWEVER now all one has to do is temporarily disable Application Enhancer, and upon restart, you can use iDVD with no problem. Temporarily disabling App Enhancer will work for one time, with one restart (a more permanent solution would be to uninstall it, but this is not necessary).

How sure am I that the Instant Hijack feature is the culprit? Because I recently downloaded MovieGate (another DVD authoring program) and this crashes as well, unless I first temporarily disable App Enhancer, restart, and then launch MovieGate.

Knowing all this, do I still recommend AHP? YES! You just have to be aware of this issue, and do the workaround.

I bought AHP mainly to record NPR programs when I was away, and that alone was well worth the cost. With podcasts now available for most of those, I use it less for that purpose. However, as I've begun preparing to create my own podcast series, I've found how to use AHP to record my Skype calls on separate tracks. With a caller's cough or my dog barking now isolated, I can edit easily.

For audio processing, AHP has plenty of fx and tools that well meet the needs of most users.

When problems come up, as they inevitably will (especially in the wake of security updates, OS transitions, etc.), I've found AHP's crew fast, friendly, and always effective. Their responsiveness easily overrides any concerns about the occasional glitch.

Freakin' brilliant. Keep on dividing, amoebas.
