[Roger Bansemer] “so what’s so new about Vegas 18 “

Grazie’s Pick . . . so far . . . .

✔️ Improved color grading including a dockable panel, skin tone line on the vectorscope, and logarithmic exposure. Just getting my head around this Professional Grading Engine – Marvellous!

✔️ A tool to update your drivers to the latest recommended version. Yes, sure great for me but also for the wayward Posters hereabouts that need to know what or if their GPU is hurting VegasPro18. PLUS this means the TEAM-VEGAS have bitten the Bullet to allow us to ascertain just WHAT our GPU is for. This is a seismic move on their behalf – KUDOS to the Team.

✔️ Auto-configuration of settings to maximize your hardware’s potential without you having to lift a finger. My kinda Tool!

✔️ A new 8 bit full level project mode which recognizes the full/limited color range. Been bashing this and tricking it against my colour and Particle Pluggies. Much to learn and absorb, so far more pixels being used – yes? I can see stuff I’d have had to work hard with.

✔️ Improved plugin chooser and effects explorers. Improved?!?! That’s an understatement. It’s been Overhauled.

I can now Search for a Plug and have it responded in split seconds and NOT the glacial reaction it used to do – if I was lucky.
I can now make Favourites and have them TAB under its OWN Favourites Tab – stunning!
Team-Vegas, thank you.

Oh yeah, the Love-Handles.

Roger, me ole Mucker, dl a DEMO and give it a whirl.

[Petr Turek] “In Vegas Pro 17, there is no option for rendering via the NVENC GPU.”

Hi Petr! You could try updating your nVidia Card Driver? I use the Studio Driver and stay away from the Gaming Driver. In any event, I get to use NVENC encoding with my nVidia Card in GPU.

[Austin Bauer] “17. Upgraded from 16 recently, but I was having the same problem there.”

Austin I must be misunderstanding you. You’re adding an EVENT FX so when you SPLIT an EVENT it should reset the T/C. I don’t know what you were getting in 16 but when I SPLIT an Event the T/C resets in both 16 and 17.

[Norm Kaiser] “GeForce GTX 1080 & Vegas 17 = Slow Render”

Hi Norm! Slow renders indicate the work VP is having to do.
Need to know:

1] What are you rendering?
2] Media Properties?
3] A list of the FXs you are using.
4] Your drives?

Please double check your:

[Norm Kaiser] “I then go to do a render with one of the Magix AVC NVidia presets”

You could check your nVidia driver date? When did you last Update? I use the Studio version NOT the Gamer. My card is GeForce RTX 2070 driver 441.66.

While you are at it, you might as well post a Comprehensive Screengrab of your VP Timeline.
