  • Issues with Sony Vegas!!!!

    Posted by Dave Croonprince on July 24, 2011 at 7:33 pm

    Hello,
    My external computer drive keeps going haywire! I’m using Sony Vegas pro 8. I just got a new mac which I’m running virtual windows on so I can keep editing on Sony Vegas. But I’m having a lot of issues. When I try to hook my camera up to capture footage – I get my image on webcam, not the camera I’m using to upload footage and there is this loud wonky sound over the speakers. The most disturbing part is I get a message saying my drive – which is 3 tb external drive – is corrupt and unusable. What is causing this and what can be done about it? Thanks for you help!!!
    Dave

    The sound could be feedback from your in-built Mac Book microphone which is enabled and possibly turned right up volume control-wise.

    I am not sure if the ‘haywire’ issues are related to running Vegas in a Windows virtual machine on a Mac.

    The external drive issue could be a limitation of the virtual machine environment.

    My system specs: Intel i7 970, 12GB RAM, ASUS P6T, Vegas Pro 10e (x32/x64), Windows 7 x64 Ultimate, Vegas Production Assistant 1.0, VASST Ultimate S Pro 4.1, Neat Video Pro 2.6

    Thanks Nigel. I’m going to show this info to a tech person when he looks at the computer today. It’s very frustrating to say the least. I’ll let you know what happens.
