Bump… update:

The only file I changed in CFF explorer was the DVD Arch exe file as all the files listed in the CFF explorer fix seem to be related to Vegas and Vegas works perfectly fine for me.

I have proceeded to render all my files to MPEG2 and AC3 including the short movie files, however I’m at a point in this project file where I cannot replace any more of the WMV files to MPEG without having the program crash. I still have the WMV project file saved separately and it works fine, except for the fact, you know, that it still won’t render. I really don’t know what more to say.

Will system stats help?

I’ve noticed it tends to stop rendering at the start of my playlist. I have a playlist that contains all of the extremely short videos. It’s a kind of interactive DVD, so these videos are random “scores”. The playlist is randomised, and is made so that one random “score” video is played after each of my bigger videos before returning to the menu. The render process seems to fail upon reaching the playlist, and sometimes the progress bar will stop moving while the time still counts down. I deleted 1 item from the playlist and prepared again, which caused the low memory error to come up straight away.

I’ve also tried deleting the entire playlist (and all the media files that were on the playlist), and it still fails to prepare the project. Any ideas??

I’m aware that DVDA grossly overestimates the project size and so I rechecked over my original files which sure enough, come to approx 2.8 GB. I tried preparing the project again, this time ignoring the warning about file size, and went ahead without optimising/fitting to disc. Still got the low memory error. So frustrating!
