October 22, 2011 at 4:15 am in reply to: Is it worth going from Vegas 10 to 11?

I am absolutely jazzed about 11. My (AVC) render times are cut by about 40%, My preview Good(full) is excellent even with video effects on. I’ve never had this kind of performance with multiple tracks of AVCHD on any computer. I’ve used the stabilization, no problem. I did have to re-install Vegasaur, not a big deal.

I feel bad for Angelo, he is having poor results with his upgrade. I might recommend a fresh install of Windows, because I think something is causing problems. I keep my computer clean, no trial-ware, no junk, I surf on another system. I wish I could help more.

John,

If I had 1920 AVCHD and my render was 1280 and in the pan/crop I zoomed in to 1440 would I get better results with Best or would Good be enough. I guess I should try it. What are your thoughts.

Do you experience preview lag? No
Are you editing multi-cam? Yes
Edit format: AVCHD
Multi-cam tool: Ultimate-S
Make and model of your video card: 2-ASUS GTX-460
Amount of RAM installed on your video card: 768MB on each

VERY similar system to yours. Windows 7 Pro (not ultimate)

I have never been an early upgrader. I usually wait for feedback. But with this upgrade to 11, my multicam is so smooth it feels like Christmas!

Angelo,

I don’t know… I did fire-up 10.0 and watch the same project, and it was lag-city all over again. I previewed my project again in 11 to make sure I wasn’t dreaming.

What multi-cam are you using? I am using Ultimate-S, I wrote my post (croped parts of 4 AVCHD…) so people would be able to understand without knowing how Ultimate-S sets up the tracks.

Maybe it’s having 2 GTX-460’s, 336 CUDA Cores each, they are middle-of-the-road, performance wise, but overall decent cards. My Memory is pretty good, 8-8-8. I also have a SATA 3.0 SSD for the system drive.

Have you read any of the performance posts on this forum?

Mary,

I don’t know of any discussions, but if I were to go looking I would start at tomshardware.com.

I bought a Sans Digital Towerraid, and 4-3TB Samsung 5400 rpm drives. The most important thing to look for is the controller card. Make sure it does everything you need it to do. The spin-up time seems a bit slow but I get awesome R/W speed. This is my long-term storage, which used to be on several 1TB drives that I would pop in as needed. If I fill this one up I would add another just like it.

I hope this helps,

Jeff

It came as an empty case with fan, power supply and esata controller card. I supplied the drives and assembled it.

I use a 12TB JBOD Raid(5) system. If you lose a drive you can plug in a new one and reconstruct the data The overhead is one disk worth. So if you had a JBOD with 6-2TB drives you would have 10TB of storage. They are pretty quick too. You may want to buy the extra drive beforehand.

They are the same. The ISO is a ‘package’ of all the files needed to make the disk.

This might work… If your settings are to open the last project(default) go to the .veg and rename it. (Project.veg to project-old.veg) Make a new folder and move all the assets to that folder. Then get Vegas running and open the renamed project, it will ask you if you want to search for or give a new location of the each event. give it the new location for each asset and load them in one at a time, do not click the ‘other files were found in this folder’ option.

With any luck it will bomb out on a specific file, you can repeat the process leaving that file offline, continuing with the rest and recover most of your work.

Good luck,

Jeff

The time you spent editing with a pirated version may well be lost. You cannot expect a program as complex as Vegas Pro to work properly after being hacked. If you want to be a video editor, invest in the tools to make that happen.
