GMetrix file not loading into editor... infinite spinning circle

When trying to import the GMetrix .fit file into the editor to sync up the data with the video's, it doesn't want to load the data. It just gets stuck with the spinning circle waiting for something to happen. I updated the editor the other day and did not have this problem before updating. Previous version was... 4.something, can't remember exactly. Now it's 5.1.2 and i'm having this problem.

I attempted to reinstall the original version I had downloaded earlier this year, which was 4.2.3 I believe, but after installing it, it wouldn't launch. I would just get quick flashes of the program trying to load up. I would end up having to end process in task manager. Probably a local store somewhere I need to delete to do that though.

The video and data I am trying to edit is located on a secondary drive that I am importing into the editor. The video imports without problems. I then click GMetrix, Import GMetrix, select On This Computer, then either browse to the file or drag and drop. It then goes to the map screen where it's waiting for the data to populate onto the screen.

Has anyone else had this problem and know of a fix or easy solution?

Computer specs: I7-4790K, 670GTX, 12GB RAM, Win10 64-bit.
  • I also have been experiencing this problem lately, but then I discovered that my Virb 360 is generating FIT files for the videos over 50Mb in size, sometimes even more after I spend doing films for more than 5hrs.

    In my case, it is just a question of waiting because VirbEdit will show the spinning circle, it may even seems to be frozen but always finishes and returns from that with the correct data.

    Some especially large fit files can take quite a bit of time to load. How big is the file you are loading? How long have you tried waiting? If you want, you can share the file with me and I can check if something is going wrong, or if it is just taking its sweet time.
