I bought v10 the day it was available and not looked back yet. Vegas has been so dependable for me that I never hesitate to upgrade *mid-project*.
Which OpenFx plug-ins are giving you problems? I use NewBlueX plug-ins (which are OpenFX) on practically every project. Never had a mysterious “black frame” and can’t recall the last time Vegas crashed.
I most often produce DVDs, but more of my clients want to see a preview on YouTube, so I have been encoding a lot of Sony AVC for uploading to YouTube.
All project files are on bare SATA drives in a USB2.0 desktop dock.
Worse yet, my editing PC is on the fritz, so I have been doing all this on my Internet-connected general-purpose office PC. (This is one of many advantages of putting my projects on the bare drives).
Which reminds me that I haven’t backed up my PC in a couple of months.

If the crash occurs at the same point in the timeline, especially on a second machine, I would likely suspect that you have bad media. Try rendering “around” the crash point.

“Like everyone,” ???
I can’t remember the last time Vegas crashed here or gave me an error message.

Do you get the slashed circle as soon as you click on the file, or only when you drop it into Vegas? If it’s the former, then Windows is not allowing the click/drag. If it’s the latter, have you tried holding the mouse over Vegas for a few seconds?

This is becoming a frequent complaint. One thing that seems to be common with slow loads is that the source is encoded with MJpeg. I haven’t seen this problem with DV (avi files) or HDV (m2t files).
Could Vegas be recoding the MJpeg file during the load?

Copyright law is pretty clear on this. (https://www.copyright.gov/title17/92chap2.html).
Generally, you own the work unless it is a “work for hire” or if you transfer the rights to someone else. Work for hire is also well defined in copyright law. If photography is your primary job then the work belongs to your employer. If you are a secretary and your boss asks you to videotape a meeting, you own the work since it’s not your primary job. If Acme Plumbing hires you to videotape a commercial for them, unless your contract states otherwise, you own the work.

This sounds like you’re creating the .sfk files again.
I use the longer load times as a good excuse to stretch my legs once in a while.Steve Mann
