  • Animation key-frames won’t stay put when I save and re-load a .vf file.

    Hello. I’ve been using Sony Vegas Movie Studio HD 11 for some time now, and overall, it’s worked well. However, there’s one thing that’s been happening every time I save a file as a .vf and re-open it later on.

    If I’ve got any text media and have them fade, change colour, move, basically animate in any way using keyframes, when I save and re-load the file, the keyframes have gone from their original location to a position around eight times away from the original time.

    This happens every time I save a .vf file, and makes making any sort of animation a pain since if the program crashes for some trivial reason (eg trying to enable shadows on text), I have to re-do the entire thing again. Has anyone else had this happen to them, and is there a way to stop this from happening? I’m using Windows 7 64-bit, if that’s any help.

    Looks like the latest build 521 resolves the keyframe issue. I set four of them and then saved the project and reloaded it fine.

    Ah, okay. How would I get the latest build?

    EDIT: I just checked the Sony Creative site and looked up Movie Studio HD, the latest build is 37, but Vegas Pro is at 521, did you mean that one?

    Jake, I’m sure that Mark was referring to Pro 11 and not your product.
    I recommend contacting Sony Tech Support via phone or email and explaining your problem in the hopes that they have a fix for you.
