   Nope, no video editing. I have done a few MS Office based PowerPoint presentations. Other than that I have a few Graphics programs, Adobe Design CS3, Corel Draw, InterVideo DVD/creator (came with the PC) and Picture Project for my camera.

	Bob, do you do video editing on that computer? If so, what software and add-on packs have you installed?

	Sounds like I am getting the same error prompt as autotime gets. I open my command prompt and get the window titled c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe with the prompt of c:\documents and settings\bob I had already run the regsvr32 command for qedit.dll, so now the error I get when I check the "To see what data this error report contains, click here" link gives me the filename videoe~1.ocx. I searched and the only file that I came up with was videoedit.ocx. I ran the regsvr32 command for this file and it does not clear the error. It just repeats the same error prompt. (filename videoe~1.ocx) Bob T.

	Do me a favor it might just work: Got to start > run Type cmd In the opened (you should be in the C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe directory. look at the name of the window that opened.) Type regsvr32 qedit.dll then enter. Let us know the results... Slink Edit- I have a xp box that I have installed the original 1.0 on that has not thrown this error. by default that .dll was there but it is a "Work" image. so I can't verify that it is a standard .dll for xp.

	Wow, and I only have to finish the easy part. I got the Platinum versions so it would only take me "minutes" to finish each one :) If I could get the error message to copy, I would post it here. But, doesn't look like graphics will insert. The error signature has : AppName: aurora_sequencer.exe AppVer: 1.0.0.0 ModName: qedit.dll ModVer: 6.5.2600.2180 Offset:0001a513 Bob T.

	Bdale (Bob), that is the first time I've seen "qedit.dll" show up in an error description. When I Google qedit.dll, it seems to cause a lot of problems with Windows Movie Maker. I didn't go much deeper than that because so many of the listed sites looked like the standard "download DLL files from here" type sites. and, as far as assembling D-Light boards, I spent 7 hours today with two friends working on our project to build 24 ACx16 boards. We'll finish next Friday FOR SURE!!! We are very close to our estimate of 2 man-hours per board if we finish in four more hours. One person mounting and taping components, two of us soldering.

	I am new to D-Light and Spectrum this year. I was just getting set up to do a display this season. I have downloaded the B version of Aurora, installed the program, and when I try to run either program I get an error message that Aurora Sequencer has encountered a problem and will close. It then gives a window to report the error to Microsoft. Checking the info on the error signature it mentions a file called qedit.dll. That is as far as I can get starting the programs. I can't even get in to register it. PC Info: Toshiba Tecra A8 Intel Core 2 Duo - 1.83 Ghz Win XP Pro SP2 2.49 GB Ram - Bob T.

	Just to clarify... Nothing has changed in Aurora itself with this "b" release. If your copy is working then you will not gain anything by installing the "b" download. In fact, assuming the new download doesn't cause any problems, the new download will be replacing the old one on the server this afternoon. Updates which add functionality to Aurora are announced by email list as well as here. The added functionality and fixes ("release notes") will be listed in the email.

	Persoanlly, I don't think that it would have to be anything complex, just a list of emails to everyone that would like to know, and bcc the notice to everyone. We could just send an email to you and just title it "update notification" or something so that nothing "unsolisited" is sent.
	Fine. You're so smart you rig up the lights. D-Light users Unite!
