Plugins don’t work in Vegas 8

[Leslie Wand]

are you sure they’re going in the right plugin directory?

[Frank Manno]

Well not really – I installed it as I’ve always done in the default directory, c:\Program files\

It never asked me for the Vegas plugins directory. I haven’t done anything different than I used to do in Vegas 7.

What is the default directory anyway? Is it \Vegas\Video Plugins?

I just tried manually putting the plugin’s .dll file there and it still doesn’t show up in in the filters

Magic Bullet does work in Vegas 8.

Sometimes some plugins fail to register correctly. So you can manually register them by using regsvr32 xxxx.dll (where xxx the path and name of plugin)

Will try that, thanks.

I just noticed that the plugins actually DO install, they just don’t appear on my list of filter FX inside of vegas.

I installed Zenote Plugins. They didn’t appear in the filters tab in vegas, so as far as it seems, they aren’t there.

I themopened up an old project where I used the plugins and sure enough, the plugin is on the event! I can even click on the event and change the plugin parameters.

I just can’t seem to see the plugin in the vegas filter FX tab.

What could be causing this.
