Vegas crashes
Hi guys,
I am a complete novice at video so excuse me if I am missing something glaringly obvious.
When I bring HD media (from a 7D) into Vegas Pro 10 everything starts out fine. I start editing and still it seems fine, but as I add more clips Vegas keeps crashing. I can’t seem to get an edit of more than four minutes without Vegas stopping working. Is it ok to work directly with the h.264 codec or should I be converting before working in Vegas? If so, what should I be converting to?
Also, I tried rendering a 4 minute video to 1080HD and after 5 hours it was at 0% with an estimates 10 hours remaining, the time remaining was increasing at around 12 seconds per second. If it had completed 1% in 5 hours then mathematically it would take 20 days to render a 4 minute video! This can’t be right surely?Windows Vista 32bit
