Activity Forums VEGAS Pro Not Responding and crash

  • Not Responding and crash

    Posted by Roger Bansemer on January 18, 2010 at 10:22 pm

    I get a “not responding” message every few minutes while editing and the program crashes. Sony never answers their tec support emails.

    I have three video tracks, two with M2ts files and one with M2t files. I’m using Vegas 9 32 bit and windows7 64 bit. My feeling is it has something to do with M2ts files.
    Recently bought a new quad core computer for speed with lots of ram etc.
    In another post someone suggested this (below) I’m not sure what an ASIO driver is and what it will do. Should I try this?
    —————————————————

    I checked out getting an ASIO driver, and that seems to have solved the problem. I got mine at https://www.asio4all.com/. Vegas will give you error messages the first time you hit play after installing it and making changes, too. (Ignore any messages that say it doesn’t support the bit rate. I haven’t run into any problems yet.) Just hit play again and it works fine. I’m up to 110 simultaneous audio tracks now and I’m not having any problems, not even latency problems! ( Be sure to change your audio driver in Vegas by going to Options > Preferences > Audio Device > Audio Device Type.)

    Vegas is really getting on my nerves@!
    Sure would like some definitive help.

    ASIO are audio drivers. They would only help if the “not responding” was caused by audio.

    If you are editing AVCHD and using FX it could be that Vegas can’t keep up with refreshing the preview. Look at the frame indicator at the bottom right of the preview display. If it says something like 268… those dots (…) means that it’s trying to render frame 268 and when it’s done (which may take several seconds) it will try and render frame 269 and if you are already up to frame 320 it will appear to freeze until it catches up. Could this be the problem?
