There is a simple reason for these crashes. I just went through the same thing and found that one of the files (a clip) that is part of the main project was not at the same frame rate as all the others. Hence, even though Sony claims to be able to handle that, you will run into issues at a certain project size. Also make sure your project properties are set to match the frame rate as well.
I discovered this the hard way. It seemed something had changed and all of a sudden I started getting those nasty aviplug.dll errors. I took the entire project off to another system that did not have Cineform on it. Same results. Hence, it purely had to do with frame rates. The change that happened and that looked as if some weird things came upon Vegas was simply that a file with a different frame rate was introduced to the project. Of course, if one does not pay attention to detail, then it may look like – “geez, all of a sudden the thing blew up for no reason.” – but as we all know, there is always a reason. 🙂

Wow, so will there still be another upgrade offer for those of us that have PI3.x and CS5 today that want to get PIAE when it is ready for CS5?

It seems Sony Vegas and the whole support mechanism is getting worse as time goes by. Version 9.x (32 or 64) is a total piece of garbage when it comes to memory management. I have monitored it diligently in task manager – and if you actually watch the thing, it just keeps growing and growing and eating up memory even it if just sits there. The “canned” replies one get from Sony are about as helpful as a needle in the eye. Totally useless. I am now sitting in front of two time lines that are totally red. Restarted – shut down – restarted – totally useless – and neither the 32 or 64 bit versions seem to want to come back at all. – As far as turning off the AV etc… totally a canned reply from Sony. It is the most common reply one gets regardless of the issue. Useless! I can’t wait till NAB – I will then have a serious face to face with that division. It’s almost looking like Sony Vegas is becoming the “Toyota” of editing software. It’s a total memory “runaway” product since V9. – They really don’t listen or care about anything anymore it seems. But they will happily sell you a support package. – My guess is that there is some secret settings that need to be tweaked in preferences – but Sony has yet to document such things properly. Version 8 was soooooo much better.
