Vegas Pro 12 Render Engine The Worst Ever!
-
In my case, my dynamic ram is set at 200 and my GPU on for my Quadro 4000. WIN 7 64bit system is up to date.I also have 32GB of RAM.
In resetting the dynamic ram to either 100 or ever 0, is this just for rendering?

I think you mean “Ram Preview”. The more preview ram that you set aside means that much less ram available for other functions in Vegas.
However, in some tests, people have found that having some preview ram resulted in slightly faster encodes. This tells me that something in Vegas wants to use some Preview Ram for a render as process. If I recall, the sweet spot was around 1Mb.

Thanks Stephen I have 8gig so I know it’s not the memory and the temp is fine as well.
I have around 55.3 gig space on my hard drive so I know I’m not running out of space.
Now it would seem that vegas has decided to stop working.

I found that setting preview ram to zero made the GPU hangs go away, but I think I saw some more stuttering. My GPU is an AMD GPU.
My GPU problems have only existed on slideshow projects. Straight video (GoPro MP4) has been fine thus far, but my use is light.

You still haven’t said *how* the encode stops. Is there an error message? Does the encode alone just stop? Does the whole PC lock up?
This part is curious:
” and it still wont render that 30sec video intro for my show even on it’s own. ”Have you removed all unused media from the “Project Media” window?
Break that 30-second segment up into 10-second chunks (just create a region and in “Render As” menu select “Render region only”.)

Steve, in my case rendering just stops. The image on the Preview freezes. The render counter continues to run. Time remaining counter goes to 0:00:00.00. No error message. Cancelling render does nothing. PC still functioning. I have to go and kill the V12 process and restart V12. This last render stopped about 36 mins into a 120 min show and I reset dynamic ram to 100. Now trying it at 0.
I have ran this show through render about 6 times (minor changes required in edit) and 3 of those had this stoppage.

When a program appears to hang, use the Resource Monitor (run/resmon) to see what the program is waiting for.
Open Resource Monitor, find the Vegas112.exe process, right click on it and select “Analyze Wait Chain”. Normally this should be empty, but if there is something in the wait chain, it may provide a clue.Steve Mann

This happened with me exactly the same way.
render just stops, counter keeps counting down to zero, elapsed time keeps running, no error message, pc is not frozen, but cancel rendering does nothing.
once the rendering stopped at 80% complete, 70% complete and once at50%complete.
It’s not a pc issue. intel i7 3930, 32 GB ram, GTX680
cpu never gets over 35 deg C because of water cooled.
BTW, this is a V12 issue, it never happened with V10, 11 -
[Wouter Slagter] “It’s not a pc issue. intel i7 3930, 32 GB ram, GTX680”
I’ve seen for myself the exact same issue you describe using a GTX-600 series GPU, try disabling Video Acceleration in preferences and, in case your third party plugins are GPU-enabled, check with the developers whether they support your 680. Some stuff in Vegas Pro 12 can make the render “halt” when using a GTX 6XX card, I’m positive once you disable video acceleration your problems will go away, you’re not getting quicker renders with the 680 anyway, only smoother preview.

I solved the Hang problem , as several others mentioned previously, with just setting Video acceleration to OFF. I left all the other suggested settings to be changed the same ( preview RAM default, CUDA if available selected)
I wonder when Sony is addressing this mayor mess up ??
