More problems.

I've upgraded to Adobe Premiere Pro CS3 because my brother told me that it handled Divx codec fine. I transferred my current project to the new one. Great right? Not really. Now part of the timeline is freezing the program. It didn't do this on the old Adobe. If I try to play or render the work area, that section causes the program to freeze and crash. Does anyone know what's going on? Here's a screenshot of the troublesome section (the end of the timeline):

Additional details: The troublesome clips in question have the follow effects used on them -
Speed is set at 150%
Inverted effect used on some clips

When converting the project to the new Adobe, I got the message that the editing mode used by the project could not be loaded and that it was opening in desktop mode instead. Could this be the problem? Rendering the work area seems to screw things up.

Premiere crashing is common practice. I've had clips in the timeline with one simple effect on them, and it crashed. I used AVS files in Premiere, it crashed. I try doing a track matte effect, it crashed. Mostly because of lack of available RAM. (even though I have 2gb). Personally, from talking to other people, the earlier versions of Premiere are more stable than the newer. I had to downgrade from Premiere Pro 1.0 to Premiere 6.5 just to finish one video.

About the Opening in Desktop mode, I am not sure. I gave it a quick Google search and the only thing I found was an unresolved issue mentioned on CreativeCow. But does it say "Desktop Mode" or "Desktop Display Mode." And did you convert your old project from an older premiere to the newer?

Since when does Premiere handle Divx? If your editing with DivX files, give up. You should begin by converting them in lagarith or huffyuv with virtualdub
