My main issue is where the stabilisation control now is – you no longer right click, its now in the effects menu, except it doesn’t work! – to make it work you have to go in via tools, and you cant ask it to render just the sub clip, it renders the whole clip ( or at least theres no obvious way to do this) in 10 it asked you if you wanted to render the whole clip or sub clip.
The programme is also prone to crashing during the stabilisation render. Ive stabilised scenes that have totally freaked out and become jerky. Ive also found a bug in “glow”, the glow area becomes transparent so the track underneath shows through. The stabiliser is a fantastic tool in Veg10 but a real pain in the ass in 11. The best thing by far about 11 is its speed – I edit music videos that usually consist of quite heavily graded multi – tracks.
With 9 playback was so jerky, even on the half draft monitor setting, that it was almost impossible to cut accurately, ( before you ask, yes I have a very decent computer, shit loads of RAM and a good graphics card) I couldn’t quite believe it was so bad – 10 was much better, but still left a lot to be desired – 11 in my opinion is how 9 & 10 should have been in the 1st place – it actually works!
Ive used the trial of 11 on one project so far, fully expecting to upgrade as soon as the trial expires, but based on my very limited experience with it so far, no way will I be upgrading until these bugs are sorted – and I have a very strong feeling its just the tip of the ice burg..Dan

Ive downloaded the Vegas 11 trial and have been using it for about an hour and in that time have found 2 bugs and one major annoyance and had 5 crashes – it does run a good bit faster than 10 and infinitely better than 9, which I found as good as useless at running multitrack graded HD – but why dont 9 & 10 run as fast?? Alas, Im stuck with the crock of shit that is Vegas….

Hi,
I did state in my post that I was editing AVI on my old system not EX or 5D files. I bought the system and Vegas 9 back in March and have being editing using my old system ever since – I cant believe Vegas 9 could possibly be so piss poor – as for buying Vegas 10, Im not about to shell out on another Sony software in the vague hope that it works. thanks for the advice about converting the EX files – but am I being naive to expect to be able to edit the output of a Sony camera on Sony software?? -
Hi,

Im now praying for an answer…
Cheers,

Thanks for your reply,
I followed your advice but no improvement. Im not sure if I made clear exactly what my prob is. When running a single track of vid things are fine, nice and smooth – its when I run many tracks (3 or 4 plus) that the chugging becomes a problem, especially if the tracks have effects on. Ive just bought a Sony EX3 and the files from this cause the same prob. My Vegas 9 trial is almost up and Im not going to shell out until I can get this program to work- but that means Ive got nothing that can read the files from my EX3 On my old computer running Vegas 6 I can easily run 10 + tracks of video (AVI)
Is there any kind of Sony support line I can call???
