Vegas 11 and New Blue Titler

[Mark Barton]

It is working for me, but I did have some crashes when running the previous version of the NVidia drivers for my GTX 570 video card. NVidia just updated them this week. If you have an NVidia card and are using the GPU acceleration features in Vegas Pro 11, then I would recommend updating to the 285.62 or later drivers.

Also download the NBT update, it is the same version but a different build which was released yesterday I believe.

Here is the link:

I did get some crashes prior to the old version but this new version does seem to help but I still need to test it out further.

It’s a great titler and you can really get creative with it!

I have a GTX 570 in my system at the moment. The 285.62 drivers really did speed things up, versus whatever I had shipped. I’m comparing this to an AMD HD 6970, and so far, the 6970 is winning.

With the new driver, I found I’m getting GPU math errors, leading to crashes, with the GTX 570 and rendering out to MainConcept MPEG-2 or MainConcept AVC. No crash if I disable the GPU. I also found it crashes the Sandra Lite GpCryptBench benchmark.

Of course, that’s nVidia. On the AMD side, I found that the AMD installer crashes. So when installing, you actually have no idea if a proper install has happened. It crashed because I had a newer version of some optional Microsoft library, so the installer didn’t install, and the AMD installer isn’t properly checking return codes. Or some-such. I was never able to run the AMD Control program.

It’s not like these guys are new at this. I ran into this kind of stuff 15 years ago; you think they’d have it nailed by now.

Three things:

1. Make sure your video driver is the most current version.
2. Install the update Robert mentioned
