    I’m not talking about preview lag, I know how to fix that and it doesn’t make a lick of difference if I put it on Best full or Draft quarter. The whole sony vegas is laggy, it takes a few seconds for clicks to register, to play things, edit thing, cut things Etc. I seem to only have this problem editing a video I’ve already rendered before in Sony Vegas. A 15 second test clip I rendered (Because the preview just freezes) is taking about 5 minutes to render on 360P. Any help? I can’t search for anything because “Sony Vegas lag” translates on search engines to “Sony vegas preview lag”, and that’s not my problem
    I’m using Sony Vegas Pro 10.

    thanks

    Well then it would seem that something installed on
    your computer is causing this lag.
    Does any other software seems to be lagging to you?
    like photoshop etc.etc.?

    Nope, it’s just Vegas when I re use these files, it plays all other video files I’ve got from other places fine. I used a video reformatter and put it in 360P from 720P and put it at 25 FPS and I get the exact same result.

    I don’t have a crap computer either I just got it, 4cores 3.1ghz, 6gb ram, hd radeon 4200, hell I can play a lot of recent games on high settings. It’s something wrong with Vegas, and it’s angering me because I payed 500 dollars for it.

    I narrowed it down, when I play clips really fast, like .5 seconds each and replay them it slows down a ton, but the original .5 clip can play by itself easily, it’s when it’s in succession. When I render it it looks totally fine. I’m still pretty angry but at least I’ve narrowed it down a bit, just don’t know what to do

    Update, I fixed it. Sony Vegas kept trying to build audio proxies randomly for things that didn’t exist while I was trying to play the videos.

    I was having the exact same problem and discovered that Vegas was trying to build audio proxies for clips that didn’t have audio in first place. My problem: I don’t know how to stop Vegas from doing this. Can anyone help?
