• Having problems with video with Segment PRO on a new PC? You could be experiencing one (or both) of two problems. First, if you have an ultra high-resolution screen, the recommended settings might be higher than 1920 x 1080 with a scale factor of more than 100% and the user interfaces for all software written in c# will NOT be correct. Simply change the resolution and scaling to 1920 x 1080 and scale to 100%. Second, if you have a wonky Bowl View, you have an Intel Iris graphics solution and there are serious problems with it. Solution - go to the Drivers page at Intel's website and install their latest driver for your computer. This will fix it. Link: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download-center/home.html

My problem was between my ears. I found the project in the forums.

This tutorial will help you navigate the windows, menus, tabs and controls of Segment PRO.

Very helpful tutorial, very informative, and I understood it a lot better, only because I was able to keep up with you because I followed you in a session I purchased from you. You move around the screen rather rapidly, yet now that I realize what's happening, I'm glad you moved when you did, and it helped me understand it more.

Hi Ron.
I don't believe there is a specific tutorial for SP that covers open segments. The software has a choice of open or closed segments and the choice of setting the open segment gap. Designing the vessel is pretty easy and coming up with the cut list. There are many open segment vessel vids available on the internet from various turners that show the process they go through to build one.

Which video is open segments covered?
Ron,

Make sure you watch the five-part tutorial named “Beginners Project - Open Segment Christmas Ornament”. As that one has a lot of information that is for open segment vessels including design, cutting, assembly and turning.

Here is the link:
 
No audio again. I got audio on the introduction to Segment Pro but not this video or the video on the differences between Segment Pro and Woodturner Pro.

I just tried it on my laptop and the audio sound is there.

You do have checked to make sure the speakers are not muted both on your PC and the video?
 
Just checked again. No Dice. The volume on my lap top is at max and same for the video. The introduction to segment pro works fine as does YouTube. I'm sure I am doing something wrong but can't think what it is. Thanks for your response. I will keep trying.

My laptop sound volume varies greatly with videos no matter the source. Some I can hear. Others are really faint. All work well if I use headphones.

My desktop has not issues with any of the videos.
