I was spinning in a club last night doing a video show on VIDEO SL running turntables 68, dicers Lacie Rugged when all the sudden serato completely crashed and shut down on me in a span of 1 second leaving no audio. This happened to me last week as well before updating to the newest version

Hi enoise,
Can you retrieve a Crash Log from when this happened ?
How to Retrieve a Crash Log Mac OS: sera.to
It sounds like it may have been a corrupt file, are you sure you have analyzed all your files and removed any corrupt files ?
Is it possible that your laptop overheated ? How far into a set were you ? How long had you been using video ?
You could download a widget called iStat nano which details Temp, CPU and a whole lot more here: www.islayer.com
If it is an overheating issue you could download and install SMC fan control to increase rpm and monitor the laptop fans.
Do you have Perian for Mac installed ? Download here: perian.org
Could you also give me full computer specs including video card in your set up.
Let me know these details and we'll take it from there.

Tracking this one too. Had some similar issues.
I'm running a MacBook Pro (4,1), 2,4 ghz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4 GB Ram, OSX10.5.8
1st issue:
Crash, music stopped instantly and software crashed 10 seconds later, during peak hour at a gig.
Setup was SL4, only one laptop, Technics 1210, no midi controllers, no external HD.
2nd issue:
Gui locked up while playing deck A, I was able to start the already cued song on Deck from the control vinyl, then switch to a backup ipod and restart the software.
Setup was Sixty Eight, only one laptop, Technics 1210, Dicers, no external HD.
SSL has always been very stable for me, so this is kind of worrying me.
