    Hello,

    I have problem with rendering my project, when I start rendering after couple minutes the application fall down – with error message or without. It is 30min project.

    My HW and SW
    Camera SONY Handycam DCR-190E (saving on HDD in format MPEG2)
    PC Acer 1,6 GHz, 1GB RAM, Windows XP
    SONY Vegas Platinum 8.0b – build 122 (I try to upgrade on 8.0d and trial 9.0)
    all videos are in format MPEG2 as camera save it – maximum size of file is 300MB

    What I try to do to solve this problem:
    – try to render only part of the project video
    – try to save as and render again
    – reduce the maximum rendered threads on 1
    – increase allocating RAM for Sony Vegas
    – conversion HDD (both partition) from FAT32 on NTFS
    – reduce size pictures which are used in project
    – render the project on other computer (I save whole project whith source media files and render it on my notebook) where the rendering run longer but anyway fall down

    – change of priority used codecs

    However there is no visible reason for this error. Many times the video fall down in “complicated point” (added picture, some effect, …) but ALWAYS in other point…

    Thank you for any answer and sorry for my english 😉

    Have you tried re-installing Vegas?

    This clearly proves then that something is wrong with
    a particular part of your footage on the timeline..
    probably a corrupt segment……don’t see what else it could be.

    I am not sure, becouse sometimes rendering run at 50% without any problem, but sometimes fall down after few seconds…

    All of a sudden my Vegas 8 stops after about 30 minutes on a long MPEG1 rendering. I did render the same 9 hour file to M2T but it was too big so changed to MPEG1. I removed Vegas and re-installed; but still stopped rendering after about 30 minutes.
    In the past I rendered many long files with no trouble no matter what format.
    Anybody help on this? Thanks.
