That was easy! Ole, you rock. I suppose I did that several years ago with a previous version and had completely forgotten about it. Awesome. Thank you!

Sony has a known problem with the GPU acceleration “feature”. My solution was to toggle OFF the GPU Acceleration feature. I think that’s under Preferences (or Properties?) then the Video tab. Now all is fine and projects render VERY fast! Good luck. Hope that helps.

Hi Scott, my personal experience, I really don’t see much if any improvement with the previews. I’m still setting the preview to quite low res to be able to complete my lengthy, multi-track, layered edits with some color correction and a few basic transitions. But on short videos, the preview works quite well. But so did Vegas 10!! So far, the “incredible” GPU acceleration just isn’t helping anything for this user. Maybe preview is a little improved.

I broke down and PAID to get tech assistance with this type issue. The agent I spoke with was quick to share that “Sony has a known problem” with their claimed GPU acceleration. The problem was not my video card but the software itself. Sony advised me and it worked! Regardless of your video card specs, disable GPU acceleration at the video tab. Yes, DISABLE this advertised feature. Ever since, my PC is smokin’ fast with renders using 90 to 100% of the processor (OC to 3.9 with 24GB RAM). I’ve had virtually no more crashes and very few issues. This “know problem” affects many of the ‘render as’ codecs. Now, I just saved you the hundred bucks I paid to Sony to learn this. Also, my renders had been VERY slow and frequently stopped prior to being complete. I no longer have issues. Pro is running stable and performing well.

My wording may be wrong but look for the “shrink image” feature of the green screen plugin. That just might be the answer. But…I can’t recall if that’s a Sony plug in or one I use from NewBlue. With it you can slightly reduce edges around the green screened subject. I find it works well. Good Luck.

Thanks Dave! Definitely NOT TMI. I need all the help I can get. I thought I had pro 10 all figured out but these new obstacles are getting the best of me. Is it possible for rendering as AVC (with GPU optimization) that (even though I have a Nvidia GTX560Ti 2Gb) the video card is not really good enough and it may be acting as a bottleneck. It is recognized by Vegas when I choose GPU rendering but maybe that’s irrelevant? Thus, CPU rendering is better on my system? Again, thank you VERY much. Dan…

Maybe this has already been answered for you but this only works when rendering as MP4 or Sony AVC. I am having NIGHTMARE render times with Pro 11!!! It’s awful.
