That's true with the videocards that it should be common - but there must be something which is common for these few cards to cause the freeze (specific interface, buffer size perhaps etc.). I mean pointers in sw can make even the best code screw up - it's a long shot I admit it, but it's my best

I have the suspicion that it is the Animations plugin that causes the freeze when one of the effects are activated (perhaps some pointer goes spoink). If this is the case, then further investigation would be to identify which animation is to blame. So far I have deactivated the animations plugin

@Arngren That's an interesting observation. But then the problem would probably be visible with all video cards, since there is nothing specific to these cards in the plugin. Oh, and while you're at it, can you also try with Animations enabled, but with focus effect set to None in settings
