Sony Vegas Pro 11-Preview issue

Sorry for disappearing there…

[Nigel O'Neill] “1) Any particular reason why you are using a 32 bit pixel format instead of 8 bit?”

I am using 8 bit pixel format

[Nigel O'Neill] “2) Have you selected Adjust source media to better match project or render settings in your project properties?”

I have tried both and neither seems to affect the preview.

One thing that did seem to help was I moved all of the video clips on the timeline to another video track. The video quality improved a lot, but I’m not sure I understand why…

Are you editing with multiple cameras or using the multicam feature of SVP? They can impact the preview. I edit with Vasst Ultimate S and pretty much edit in preview full most of the time, even on my grunty system.

My system specs: Intel i7 970, 12GB RAM, ASUS P6T, Vegas Pro 10e (x32/x64), Windows 7 x64 Ultimate, Vegas Production Assistant 1.0, VASST Ultimate S Pro 4.1, Neat Video Pro 2.6

I had sony vegas 8 and 9… Now i upgraded to Vegas 11

Im testing this from the same computer and also using 3 different computers and the result is the same so its not a computer problem, its how Sony changed something in Vegas after version 10.

The video preview from Vegas 11 is very grainy or dull.
Sony vegas 8 and 9 on the same computer, same footage, actually, any footage or stills, the video preview is crisp and the contrast is identical to the clip on its original folder outside vegas.

On Vegas 11, its a total different look and I’m very frustrated.
The good thing I experienced on Vegas 11 is that i no longer need transcoding on original AVCHD. going back to Vegas 8 and 9 the display is gorgeous but AVCHD lags. And yes, I tried any configuration: 8 Bit, 32, 32 full, preview quarter, half, full, auto…And any combination from draft to best.

HELP please.
