I took a short break from the chaos but not before I installed an old version of Vegas 10. same problem.

I will try each and every suggestion you made and get back to this thread with the results.

Vegas Pro 12 ProType titler issue

[Larry Brewer]

I have removed both my Nvidia graphics cards and installed a Gigabyte GV-R577UD card (ATI Radeon HD 5700 series) and updated the Radeon drivers.

same story. vegas works until I click on ProType titler.

So, once again I uninstall Vegas 12, I run CCleaner and re-install Vegas 12. No improvement, same story.

I am dead-in-the-water here and have been for over 48 hrs.

I am going to uninstall vegas again, create a new admin user account and install in that account. the vegas 12 license will probably deny me another install, so I wait till monday and call and bitch?

meanwhile..

I would appreciate any and all suggestions.

I really don’t think this is a Vegas 12 build whatever issue. Something happened in my PC when I uninstalled a 4TB raid. Can’t say what happened but it only affected Vegas when using ProType titler.

Later today I’ll swap my 2 graphics cards with another PC that’s running Vegas 12 just fine. That should tell me if the problem is with the graphics cards.

What version of Vegas are you using? The functions you are discussing have seen changing in recent updates.

[Larry Brewer]

That’s the fix for build 486. Vegas 12 build 563 pretty much took care of the “Media Pool Thumbnail” fiasco. But thanks for the suggestion. I did dump that folder anyway, no change.

Other developments with this issue relate to timeline thumbnails. MOV clips aren’t displaying thumbnail images on the timeline since the debacle first occurred.

The problem is certainly surrounding the graphics cards. All cards were running latest drivers when I checked. I’m going to uninstall and re-install to reload the drivers just to see what happens.

[Larry Brewer]

I’ve made another discovery.

It isn’t really “running” ProType titler that locks up Vegas 12. I can drag ProType titler from the Media Gen window directly to the timeline and create text, and I can do this repeatedly.

What is locking up Vegas is when I click on ProType Titler causing the sample animated thumbnails to appear in the Media Gen window. The instant they pop-up, Vegas freezes.

[Larry Brewer]

OK, so I uninstalled SVP 12 build 563, used CC to clean registries, re-booted, and installed an older build 394. Same thing. as soon as I click on ProType Titler in the Media Generator window Vegas freezes, and the screen turns white. I also can’t open any projects that have ProType Titler graphics in them. Which is everything I’m working on currently.

I have never been this screwed. BTW, all other titlers seem to function fine. And all other functions of Vegas seem to be performing as well.

But right now I am completely shut down.

Windows 7, Intel i7 950, NVidia GeForce GTS 450, NVidia Geforce 8600 GTS. Mainboard Gigybyte X58A-UD5. 24GB triple ch ram

GPU is disabled, .NET Framework 4 is installed, no overclocking.

DirectX version 11 installed.

My version of Vegas 12 563 won’t start with the shift/cntrl key pressed.

BTW, the ProType titler issue seem to begin with the update to build 563.

Thanks for any help you can provide.
