Vegas Pro wont complete render

Good to hear, although that solution is not too comforting.

Hey there

I have had the same problem as you come up awhile ago and it has frustrated me to no end this last two months! I had no trouble before, it would render everything fine, and now it does exactly as you described, renders to a point then whole thing freezes and the count down just ends. Only way to get out of it is task manager kill it. Vegas 11 has been coughing up different problems constantly, first it doesn’t even recognize .MOV files at all, now this. So I went ahead and tried Vegas 12 and guess what? It does the same thing!! Hangs at the first few seconds of rendering! I just don’t get it…spend hours and hours reading forums and everyone says something different, I try all the suggestions, and nothing works…really makes me lose interest in editing and I get no work done!

I also had this issue. Turning off the GPU Accelerated Render in the preferences seemed to fix it for me :p

I had the same problem with Sony Vegas 12 for months. Sometimes rendering worked fine, then it stopped somewhere in the middle.
But I think I found a solution:

Method 1 (as mentioned above):
– Go to “Options” – “Preferences” and disable GPU acceleration

Method 2 (if you have multiple graphic cards, such as the Intel on the mainboard and an external Nvidia/Amd one):
– Go to “Options” – “Preferences” and select the external graphics card (the internal Intel HD4000 seems to cause the problems on my device), click “Apply” and restart Sony Vegas

IMPORTANT: to change settings start Vegas as administrator (right click on the Sony Vegas icon -> “Run as administrator”). Without doing this, both methods did not work for me. After changing the settings you can start Vegas normally again.

HI THERE
After having this issue as well- and trying EVRYTHING listed here- still had the same issue-
Finally zeroed in on the culprit-
an audio Sony Pitch filter set to high quality Speech 7 mode locked up the render every time. When using lower settings got it to render. So its not just bunk GPU and memory cache settings in some cases but buggy audio issues as well.
ARGGG SONY!!
