7c, lots o’ Cineform HDV, crashes – HELP
Boy, Vegas has always worked great for me but I’m hoping some
people can help give me some info regarding my current problem.I’ve currently got a Vegas 7c project that has about 12 hours of
Cineform HDV footage captured for it. About an hour of it is on
the timeline. This is a mix of 720-30p and 1080-60i in a 720p
HDV project.Vegas 7c is just not stable for me with this project.
Lock ups with error messages, freezing and
having to be shut down from task manager and even just
completely vanishing. I uninstalled and went back to 7b but no change.I’m thinking Vegas is just choking on all the Cineform
files. If I click around between clips real fast Vegas just croaks. If I do the same with my DV project no problems, even if I click around with a project that only has a few mixed clips of 720p & 1080i Cineform there are no problems.Does anyone have any experience working with around 10
hours of Cineform? Anyone think it’s the mix of 720p & 1080i
that’s killing me? Should I try working with this media in smaller batches?Would appreciate hugely any experience or info, Thanks a ton.

I use Cineform Connect HD and had more problems with 7b. They seem to have cleared up with 7c. The guys at Cineform told me Vegas had changed the way it handled their codec. My problem was that I already had Connect on my computer when I installed 7b and Vegas quit seeing some of the files. They though the problem came from Vegas installing the 2.1 codec (included in Vegas) over the 2.5 code (included in Connect) Also, Vegas would not render to WMV. They said to reinstall Connect over Vegas. I did but nothing improved until 7c, which according to the notes, fixed some of the problems it was having with Cineform. Since then everything seems to work. I can render a WMV file and Vegas now sees all my Cineform clips.
About all I can tell you at this point is to reinstall everything and write Cineform. They take a day or two but do look for answers.
