Rendering Crashes on Multiple BCC 7 Effects on Vegas 10
I am using Sony Vegas 10.0c and have had no problems rendering with normal footage without an BCC effects. After I started using BCC effects, I have endured day after day of crashes trying to figure out exactly WHAT the problem is. I have reduced the number of tracks from several down to just two with only one BCC effect and I still end up with crashes.
I have contacted Sony Vegas and have got no response (two days ago, in fact).
The real problem is that the error message is “An error occurred while creating the media file ANYNAME. The reason for the error could not be determined.”
I have tried to pre-render and sometimes have lost the files that were set up for pre-render and hoped it would really help, but it took so much longer to render that I decided to instead strip down the number of BCC effects.
I’m only trying to render a 10-minute piece of video.
I have tried many different file formats and have found that all of them end up the same way while some crash immediately and others crash during render after several hours of editing.
Is there some kind of guide or checklist of things I can do to prevent these kinds of generic crashes?
Would Boris help me with this?

Did you increase you Dynamic RAM Preview in orer to work better with BCC7? If you did, you might want to set it back to it’s default before rendering.

Absolutely. You should contact their technical support or post over on the Boris FX forum here at the COW. They will help figure out why your PC is having so many problems rendering with BCC7.

Thanks, John. I don’t know if there some way to move this over to the BCC forum, but I really would like to know if there is anyone who is an undisputed expert on how to get render times as low as possible and if they have wrote an ebook on it because I would buy their expertise.
It’s easy enough to say that you should do this or that, but it’d be great if someone timed out renders with different drive configurations, different graphic cards, SLI, how much RAM doesn’t matter, etc. I’d like to know these things. Why isn’t there a blog devoted to Vegas users?

Uh, aren’t you there now?

Processor power is the primary determinate in render or encode speed. More RAM helps, as does lightning fast hard disk, but nothing beats processor power for render speeds. Go to the SonyCreativeSoftware.com Vegas forums and look for “Rendertest”.
