Activity Forums VEGAS Pro No Video Preview in Media Manager

  • No Video Preview in Media Manager

    Posted by Jim Prisby on September 30, 2008 at 12:52 am

    I have a huge collection of graphic and music files identified in Media Manager that I can easily click on to get a preview in the preview window to aid in chosing which to use in my project. However, since installing Vegas Pro 8c the video preview no longer displays the graphic. I can see the frames counting off below the window but the screen is black. When I drag a graphic file to the timeline and play it it does display in the preview window. The music files play fine with full sound. I’m hoping that there is a fix somewhere for this because I rely heavily on chosing those files from Media Manager. Can anyone help me with this problem?
    Thanks.

    preview features upgrades there.

    Thanks, Steve, I had to uncheck video monitor in the trimmer and now the video display works fine for Media Manager. I would have never found that. I consider that a glitch that should be fixed. Media Manager is truly one of the great time saving features of vegas 8.
