Hello,
I would like to share my story too. Believe it or not I decided to upgrade to Windows 10 because of Cubase. The other programs that I happen to use were all running fine on Windows 7. I was too excited about the new ability to export video and I conceded that it was time to move on…
Result: I upgrade, Intel doesn’t provide accelerating drivers any more for my card (HD integrated with Intel® Core™ i3-370M), Windows 10 somehow is able to find drivers and I see everything correctly, VLC still plays all of my videos, my video encoders work perfectly, all my plugins work, I was almost there until I discover that Cubase cannot play videos now because my graphic card is not supported anymore .
So, now I come back to run Windows 7 to score videos just because of Cubase. Thank god I didn’t uninstall it. It is just absurd. Yes of course, I can buy a new computer but it surprises me that being an audio user with limited resources, I have to do it because my graphic card is not good enough. VLC can perfectly play a video next to Cubase. Why can’t I have that? I even tried copying opengl32.dll from Mesa3D to try to load a software emulation of OpenGL and it doesn’t work. Not even Microsoft who sells its own computers forced me into buying a new one. Sorry for the negative post, I hope you understand why I am so frustrated.
Believe me, I get it! This forum takes the good with the bad so it’s ok to vent.
