Activity Forums VEGAS Pro 8.0c glitch?

  • 8.0c glitch?

    Posted by Rick Wise on October 5, 2008 at 10:39 pm

    I just upgraded to 8.0c from 8.0b. Big problem for me: When I click on a clip in the Project Media, it no longer plays/previews in the preview window. I hear the audio, but there is no picture to see.

    Is this a glitch in version c or is there some new switch I need to flick?

    Its not a glitch Rick….Just check your trimmer window.
    There are added preview buttons there, toggle
    until you see find your solution.

    Steve, I don’t use trimmer, ever.In earlier versions of Vegas, you can, in PROJECT MEDIA, click on a clip and have it play in the preview window. Now I can hear the audio, but see no video.

    I did not say for you to use trimmer…..you just need to
    de-select the “shoe video monitor” icon in the trimmer window or then
    you can toggle to use the use of each.

    Got it! I have to toggle OFF “show video monitor” in the trimmer for the clip to show in the preview windows. Still seems to me to be a glitch, but at least there’s a work-around.

    Thanks!

    No glitch. It’s been a long standing feature request to have a Source monitor. The trimmer now does that. The glitch is that the stock Vegas layout doesn’t show the trimmer, otherwise everything is by design.
