[Stefan Schramm] “Is there an equivalent in Vegas”

Hi Stefan. Yes. Export Project. This has given me cuts and media used in Project. NOTHING more! Be warned. Have a go with a Test.veg first see if it fits your purposes.

[Phil Seymour] “Turning off GPU fixed the problem. “

Well yeah. Now try a clean boot and turn GPU back on and THEN reboot. The GPU Internal Prefs isn’t ON by default. Think about it. ????

[Phil Seymour] “I just installed 15”

Big clue there. Try a reboot? I’m sure you did that.

[Phil Seymour] ” there is no vision in the preview or trim monitor.”

Phil, working here. Try another Format to play? Can you see the Thumbnail in Explorer and Project Media?

Go back to another VP version and try that. Turn off GPU? Reinstall your Graphics Driver?

[Cohen Eyers] “Is there any way to fix this?”

Hi Cohen, have you registered these behaviours before?

[Norm Kaiser] “And you resized it on the timeline to what percentage?”

I did the maths in the Graphic Editor for the 4:3 for the HD plate. I didn’t bother doing the maths for the safe area %. I just used the manual crop and adjusted to nearly match. I’m sure you could make it closer.

[Norm Kaiser] “That’s EXACTLY what I’m looking for! “

Yeah, thought it was????

[Norm Kaiser] “How, specifically, did you do it?”

In my graphic editor I made a 4:3 graphic rectangle with a dotted line border.

[Norm Kaiser] “The dotted lines are a transparent .PNG?”

No, the Dots are sitting on a Transparent PNG.

Here’s my RMO :

And here WITH the 16×9 VegasPro overlays:

Now, I’m sure you could make many improvements to mine: Better Dots; have these overlays as PART of your Custom Made VEG; Make them a NEST and so on and so forth. But yes, we’ve all been banging on about this since at least 2002 when I joined-up to VP. My other bugbear is why don’t we have Overlays revealed on the external Monitor too? They’ve ALWAYS been there in DVDA? Go figure . . . .

[Norm Kaiser] “The default overlay in Vegas is not for center cutting, correct?”

Norm? I understood everything up till that? I’m almost sure we can change the Overlay in Preferences. But failing that, you could Roll yer Own by making a 4:3 yourself, plop it on the uppermost Track. You must ensure you remove it prior to Render ????

[Jeff Harrang] “but I’m actually interested in whether anyone else but me sees these kind of render performance issues with nested projects. “

I wasn’t sure you understood the Proxy thing, how could I? Now we both understand each other fuller, and as I am not a MAGIX Vegas Pro engineer, I’d strongly suggest you ask MAGIX Vegas Pro engineers your question and hopefully you/we can get it from them directly.

[Jeff Harrang] “If this is just a known Vegas thing, then fine. But I’d like to know that it’s not just something weird with my hardware or settings.”

Understood. I’ve reread this “issue” on the main User Support MAGIX Forum. And as I said, if you want a more directed response get to the MAGIX Vegas Pro engineers and ask them.
