Vegas preview

[David Higgs]

how can i post a screen shot? do you want me to film it or take a picture?

[Danny Hays]

Hold the alt key and press the print screen key. This will copy the highlighted window (Vegas in your case) to the clipboard. Then open paint and past it in. Save it as a jpeg and post it. Danny Hays

David,
Try resetting sony vegas by pressing the ctrl + shift keys while
launching vegas.
See if by any chance this helps.

Yes, i did follow those instructions… Toggling that switch has no effect though.

[David Higgs]

Genius…. after reseting to defaults its game on!!!

It was the mute switch… However, this time when i toggled the mute switch i could see the state changes of my scenes thus the preview window also turning on/off etc…

wonder what it was?

[Steve Rhoden]

Well if you go in the customize toolbar and add the “mute all video tracks” to the toolbar, you can toggle that and see if it affects the timeline.

I’m guessing…that because it appears his track mute was not selected, then maybe he had turned on Mute All Video under Options.

Just a hunch. How it happened is another matter. There doesn’t seem to be a keyboard shortcut that he could have hit by mistake. He would have to have gone into Options and made the selection. Still, stranger things have happened. (cue Twilight Zone music)
