John, You’re a Wizard!
I was worried that if I just responded on my Movie Studio 11 Crashes thread no one would see this.
I could not get the program to work. If it did load the project (rarely!!) the second I touched the keyboard or mouse it would shut down. This is a corporate 2-1/2 hour video of a special event and I had already put 3 weeks into it so the thought of starting all over again paralyzed me with fear. So I did exactly as you prescribed, renaming the files to get Vegas to open the project AND IT DID!
Once I got in there I saw 4 files (shot from a different camera than mine) that had .avi as a suffix whereas all my files had .AVI behind them. Couldn’t be that, could it? So just for giggles I pulled those files and substituted them with .AVI files and now Vegas likes me again. Now the project is done and is rendering smoothly. I don’t know why that made the difference, all I know is that it did.
I’m supposed to be the media guru here at my company, but little do they know that without the help I find on Creative Cow and your website I’d be dead in the water. Now that I have a decent camera I am pushing for upgrades to both Vegas and my computer so I can get better.
Thanks John and all!
