I’m not sure what else to say. When I try to render my project, I go to file and click on “Render as” I get the message below. I’m blocked and can’t go further.

“An error occured while creating the media file.
Exception thrown by method called”

Is the content you are rendering on an external Drive?

1] What MEDIA are you using on your Timeline?

2] What are your Project Settings?

3] What Template are you rendering to?

Basics – yes?

What do you mean “does the temp file already exist”?

I was able to render to 720P for internet and now I can’t.

Now it seems that you all haven’t research this problem on line. If you google it, you’ll see that it plagues Vegas 11 and 12. I was hoping that you might know a solution, on this forum.

I can still render, but I have to use a trick:

To render I go to TOOLS then SCRIPTING, then BATCH RENDER.
Then I can render my project to whatever option is there.
I simply can’t render anymore by just going to FILE and RENDER AS!
Again, google the error I posted in my first post and you’ll see that many people started to get that problem out of nowhere. Some reinstalled Vegas AND WIndows and still have it. That tells you what? That Vegas 12 is a piece of…
Yeah. Which means, I can upgrade for 150 bucks to Vegas 13. Should I do that? It pisses me off, I shouldn’t have to do that, though. Of course, not a word from SONY. What kind of company is it?

I didn’t get any of that detail from your opening post.

I can’t help any further.

Well, if you provided the same level of information to Sony that you put into your post, it’s no wonder they didn’t respond. Think of the millions of combinations of computer hardware/software that could be possible on a given computer. Any two (or more) of these could be in conflict with another.

I understand your frustration, but in order for anyone on this forum (none of us work for Sony) to be able to help you, you must provide the information requested by persons like Graham Bernard (John Rofrano, Mike Kujbida, Stephen Mann, Steve Rhoden, Norman Black, etc.). I’ve seen lots of posts where people are slamming Sony and Vegas as a crappy product, but when the information is given as requested, it USUALLY turns out to be some sort of USER error, or a software/hardware conflict issue specific to YOUR computer setup. Please review Graham’s post asking for more information, then provide the information requested. No one on this forum is getting paid to provide the help they do. I have learned TONS of things from just perusing this site each day.

Take a deep breath, and provide all the information that has been requested by the more knowledgeable persons that grace this site. If you do, more than likely, they will be able to help you arrive at a logical conclusion as to your problem (i.e. Vegas bug, software conflict, hardware conflict, user error, etc.).

I strongly disagree. This error has been identified more than a year ago. It’s a huge, known problem. You will realize that by just googling my original sentence, copied from Vegas error box, that I posted in my first post here.

In any case. It’s fixed. I removed some windows updates. Added others. Kept playing. Now some updates keep windows from loading, I mean starting Vegas. Some keep it from rendering. Some do both. I spent a huge amount of time installing, deleting, checking, trying, retrying, deleting, reinstalling windows updates until it worked. Now it’s working, but I do have my doubt about either Vegas or Microsoft.
