Thank you to everyone who gave me their thoughts. In my case, my purchase of Vegas Pro 12 was an upgrade form Vegas Pro 11, which was upgraded from Vegas Pro 9.

I have all three versions of Vegas Pro available for download from my account with Sony and well as my original disks, if that is the direction I have to go.

For now, I think I will continue to use Vegas Pro 12, with the GPU acceleration turned off. As others have stated, having to do this is really a sad statement for the Sony Vegas Pro 12 product. I have invested a lot of money with Sony over the years and really expect more.

Thanks again for letting me know I am not alone with this problem.

Not fully understanding the impact of the “Dynamic Ram Preview max (MB):” setting and it’s relation to “GPU acceleration of video processing:”, I have actually tried several different values for the Ram setting, ranging from the default of 200 MB up to 8000 MB of the 31693 MB I have available.

Each of the attempts at rendering with the “GPU accerleartion of video processing:” turn on have failed, crashing Vegas. The last crash during rendering, with the RAM setting at 200 MB, had the following problem report details:

Problem Description
Application Name: Vegas Pro
Application Version: Version 12.0 (Build 486) 64-bit
Problem: Unmanaged Exception (0xc0000005)
Fault Module: C:WindowsSYSTEM32ntdll.dll
Fault Address: 0x00000000774432D0
Fault Offset: 0x00000000000532D0

Thank you for your assistance!

I just upgraded from Sony Vegas Pro 11 to Sony Vegas Pro 12, with a purchased upgrade.

I am having the same problems with Sony Vegas 12 not recognizing mp3 files. Sony Vegas will not recognize mp3 nor will it render audio to an mp3 file. The mp3 file options are not even listed in the render options.

Can this be for real? I have used Song Vegas Pro to edit video sermons for a long time and I always render the audio out with a separate render to an mp3 for use on a website for people who have slower internet connections.

When using an mp3 audio clip with Sony Vegas 11, I have no problem. But if I try to use the exact same mp3 file in Sony Vegas 12, the explorer tab will not even show any mp3 files.

If any one has any success in rendering to or using an mp3 file in Sony Vegas 12, could you let us know how?

Thanks!
