Activity Forums VEGAS Pro rendering stops at 100%

  • rendering stops at 100%

    Posted by Willie Bobo on February 24, 2014 at 7:36 pm

    I experienced this for the first time today and found a workaround after googling (copy/pasting all clips to a new project before rendering) but surely there’s something I need to tick in prefs or something(I’m already not using GPU as someone had suggested ).
    I waited quite a while for the dialogue box to close (or the open button to highlight whenever I chose to not close the dialogue)and task manager showed no activity for VP12 or anything else.
    Pretty much the whole project contains 1920×1080 24 fps .MOVs which I’ve used before but not near this many.
    Thanks very much,
    Randy

    Well, I sure hope it stops at 100%. I would be worried if it kept counting up past 101%.

    Go to Start, Run, and enter resmon
    In the Overview tab, look for the vegas120.exe in the image column.
    Right-click on the program image name and select “Analyze Wait Chain”
    If a process is the problem, you can try to simply end the process. More often than not (in my experience) this usually fixes the immediate problem and the program can continue running. Back up your work and Google the offending process to see if there may be a fix. (It’s a long shot, though.)

    Does the target folder exist? Is there already an output file by the same name?

    I reckon you jest Steve but just in case, I meant the dialogue box doesn’t change after reaching 100% as usual.

    Yes and no

    This is good to know and I will try it if and when this happens again.
    Thanks Steve,

    Also, try removing all unused media from the media window using the purge (lightning bolt) icon.

    Yessir I did that along with disabling GPU (not sure how that got turned back on) and it rendered fine the next time without copy/pasting into new project.
    Thanks again Steve,

    Is this what you see?

    Yes except the “open” button would be greyed out (regardless if “close this dialogue box when rendering completes” is checked or not)

    I have sometimes fixed various Vegas oddness by doing a Cleanup Prerendered Video and deleted all prerendered video.

    That makes sense Steve because I was having to do a whole lot of selective prerenders b/c the whole timeline was hd Movs and couldn’t get smooth playback.
    Thanks,
    Randy
