  • Project media thumbnail view problem

    Posted by Larry Brewer on February 16, 2012 at 6:40 am

    When my Project Media window is filled with clips to a certain point, my Vegas 11 has trouble displaying all the thumbnails. Most will display just fine, some will remain gray, and others will blink.

    And when I move the slider down to view more thumbnails at the bottom of the window, the thumbnails have to re-build all over again.

    Has anyone else had this issue? Is there a fix for this?

    Windows 7 64 bit, Quad core, 12 GB RAM.

    It is possible that your Windows Thumbnail Cache is messed up. The Thumbnail Cache is used by Windows to make thumbnail images show up faster. You can clear the thumbnail cache to reset it. Deleting the thumbnails in the cache forces Windows 7 to reload the thumbnail picture views into the cache as needed as you open folders.

    Go to start/run, enter “Disk Cleanup” (without the quotes). Uncheck everything, then find the thumbnail check box and select that one only. Then click on “OK”.
