Relative newbie ‘response of ignorance’:

Why wouldn’t it be?

And can you try the free download, to see if it is?

I guess 9.0b is out. Sorry. I have been wrapped up in editing the new website, and have been ‘out of the loop’ for a while.

Rendering Issues Low on Memory
Lots of people are having rendering issues “Low on memory” in VP9.0 and 9.0a. Editing WMV files seems to make it worse, but others have this problem even without .WMV. (I was having issues rendering AVCHD in 9.0, but 9.0a resolved my issues.)

On a fresh install of Vista x64 Ultimate, with a 3.0GHz CoreDuo Quad with 8GB of RAM and a 12GB paging file, I still have to set Dynamic RAM preview to 0 before I render (so I just leave it there). Then I reboot the machine (to defrag the paging file), close all other unnecessary applications, and kill Anti-virus/Internet Security. On VP 9.0a, it seems to render for me to Internet 16:9 Widescreen HD 30p. However, it will not render for me in MPEG-2.
There are several other folks on this forum actively experiencing “low memory errors” on rendering. One of them may be experiencing a problem related to using a Dell (which uses non-standard parts), but the others report that they did not have this error until they upgraded to 9.0a (i.e., they did not experience it before). They believe it is likely a bug in how VP9.0a handles memory.

Also check your paging file, and set it both the initial and maximum settings at 1.5 times the size of your RAM If that does not help, you may be looking at a fresh reload of Windows, to see if that helps.
If your windows is fresh, and your Vegas is fresh, and still you are having issues, I would recommend reporting the problem to Sony, https://www.custcenter.com/cgi-bin/sonypictures.cfg/php/enduser/ask.php, so their software engineers can work on a bug fix for 9.0b. Please give them as much information as you can regarding your system (processor, RAM, system specs, etcetera), your source material (.JPEGs, PNG’s, .avi, .mov, .wmv, whatever), and what you are trying to render to (Main Concept AVC, Sony AVC, Internet 16:9 HD 30p, MPEG-2, etcetera).

I am far from an expert, and this is the extent of my knowledge on this issue. I hope it helps.

>>So I may just get a new motherboard and CPU combo

From here, that sounds like it would be a good option.

>>2Ghz ain’t cutting it anymore.

Can you upgrade your chip?

That would seem easier than fighting with it.

What is your system?

Please see John Rofrano’s blog on ideal hardware configurations.

https://www.johnrofrano.com/pcequipment.htm

If that does not help, how old is your Windows install?

Sometimes a fresh install of everything helps. I had a bad install of Vista SP2, and nothing worked right until I uninstalled and reinstalled.

I hope that helps.

Shawn,

Yes, Cineform quality and colorspace is better than .mts.

If you ask me, you should take things in stages. Get the Q9650, the Arctic Silver CPU grease, and then have someone help you install it. Then see what you have.

After you know what you’ve got, and all is stable, then you might set a restore point, and try the free trial download of Cineform NeoScene. Then you can see whether or not you want to spend $99.00 on it. Does that make sense?

But definitely do as the Spirit leads you.

Hi John.

I missed the fact that he had XP. Yes, I agree, more than 3.5 GB of RAM with 32 bit anything is a waste.

If he is going to upgrade to 64 bit, he can also download the Windows 7 Release Candidate for free here:

https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/dd353205.aspx

I think it works free until 6/2010 or something, and he won’t have to reload, just buy the authorization key. I think some guys are already using it (because it is basically just an improved Vista SP2+). If I go to reload my laptop, I think that is the way I will go (unless it makes it to the actual release first).

Hi Rob.

All I know is that I had a project that was locking up on rendering with multiple large .jpg’s. I downloaded IrfanView.exe a few weeks ago, converted all of my .jpg’s to .png’s, and then everything rendered just fine. Vegas looked for the .jpg’s and could not find them, and it asked if I wanted to do a search. Just on a hunch I said ‘yes’, and it found the .png’s in about twenty seconds.

But Photoshop is also an excellent program, with a lot of features, and it is well worth having.

Does it give you an option to search for the media?

When I do a search, Vegas is smart, and it finds it fast.

Does it give you an option to search?
