wow, its wierd to see this thread -on how to stop Vegas crashing- be mostly about how to get a better machine that will have enough memory etc to not crash. but as a couple of people pointed out, thats NOT THE PROBLEM. I have 3 top end machines, each with quad or 8 core, 32 and 64 bit, 4-8gig ram, and still Vegas cannot manage a render of a 20min section 1648×768 res project without falling over.

I got the 9.0b release, its the same.

One commentator pointed out that Vegas6 works fine for HD, much better than 9 by the look of it.

One step forward, 3 steps back. and imho thinking that a better machine will solve things WILL NOT HELP.

Come on, Sony, the program is not fit for professional use currently, it cannot even give a proper error message when it falls over. so sort it out please.

thanks
Matt

these look like a cool range, but are they plugins or composition modes, or both?
thanks

[Matt Cohn]

yes, we keep project files with the project clips on the project drive d: not the system drive

[Matt Cohn]

yes, John.. the drive letters are the same. the paths are identical.

thanks

[Matt Cohn]

have same set up as you (have ati card tho, but mac/bootcamp/vegas9), and also getting crazy problems somewhat like this. its not source codec dependent. i find if clips are speed changed, vegas cannot play them back correctly…video audio sync goes way out.

sorry, cant offer any help, wrestling with it!
