    Hi there,

    Just wondering if anyone might have any ideas to help solve this problem, it’s been driving me mad.

    I have a Sony SR-12E (PAL version) camera and have been recording at full resolution.

    I am running Vegas 8pro on a quad core intel system, 4GB of memory, 1GB graphics cards, 22″ inch for hd res monitor, 2TB hd.

    I have imported the footage (1440x1080x32 25fps interlaced) and edited the project (Project is the same settings as imported medie). There are multiple tracks of audio, video and some lower thirds and random graphics. All the video sources are the same. There is no blank gaps on any of the project sections I am trying to render out, however, on some of the renders audio play back just mutes for a couple seconds at a time. The odd thing is, that in Vegas the audio peaks still show, however, they have no sound. However the source files still have the audio. If i split and cut out the affected parts, save and then bring the same files back in, the audio is fine. But sometimes the same thing will happen on a different part of the project on the next render or preview.

    I have tried multiple render formats, both SD and HD.

    Any help would be highly appreciated.
    Thanks for your time.

    It sounds like a bug in Vegas. I would contact Sony Tech Support. You could try rendering the audio for each clip separately as a wave file and adding it back as a take but that’s a lot of work.

    Thanks John.
    Will give it a shot. Only thing is that the results are not predictable. Like if I cut the muted part out, switch to another program, and then bring that part back in again by dragging/extending the track, it’s there again. And it show up at random points.
    Maybe I will try updating… Driving me nuts. I showed it to my buddy and he said he also has similar problems occasionally, but not to this extent.
