    I have been trying to render out a clients movie and keep getting crashes from anywhere from 82%-87%. .mov files dropped on timeline and was using newblue effects. I am experimenting at the moment and seeing if the plug-ins are the culprit. I am rendering to .avi so I can throw it in sorensons squeeze. Thanks for any advice

    Sounds like Vegas doesn’t like a mov file or effect at that percentage through the render. I would remove clips and effects about that far through the timeline untill it renders through.

    Don’t know if this will help – but I’ve had big problems rendering in 32 bit (8 bit fine every time) I reduced the number of rendering threads and it works! Guess I need more memory – will try that next and up the number of threads to see if it works.

    I tried to render out the individual cclips after through “loop region” but I am still getting the same error after a certain clip. sometimes it would crash a clip before that. Pretty weird. I do have 10.0a. I am thinking next to uninstall the plug-ins next and not use the effects anymore on the clients video.

    Thanks for the response.
    I did go down from 32 to 8 still the same problem. have not tried the lower threads yet though, will give that a shot. I have an i7 920 with 12gb…don’t think that could be the problem. It is 64bit. I changed my RAM preview settings in vegas pro to 350 out of like 11,XXX but I don’t think that can the problem either.

    Sometimes audio can be problematic, I don’t know why. What I do I just render video and audio separately and then combine it with third party software.

    Ok after of a whole day researching on the internet the only solution…or should I say a temporary solution is to copy your work with CTRL+A then CTRL+C to copy Open a new project and CTRL+V to paste. I then rendered and it worked. Unbelievable…I hope 10.0b has this fix. Take care guys and Thank you again

    This works for me too. Additionally, sometimes when a projects doesn’t open at all, try opening the bak file which Vegas always creates.

    This worked for me. I was dealing with a project of HD footage from my camcorder, and for some reason Vegas was crashing every time I tried to edit the timeline in any way. It had worked fine up until today, but when I went back to the project, it crashed anytime I tried to delete a clip from the timeline, or even if I just left the program open for any extended period of time (more than a minute).

    I thought maybe it had to do with some codecs I installed, so I uninstalled them to no effect.

    I started a new project with the same template and settings, copied everything from the timeline in the original project, and pasted it into the new one, and this new project works fine.

    *whew* I really didn’t want to have to reinstall Vegas today.
