Video Preview Error Dual Nvidia SLI 1080Ti Cards.

I had Vegas Pro 16 installed and had no problems, then go to 17 and the following problem started.

I have 2 ASUS Nvidia 1080Ti Cards and for some reason the Vegas Pro 17 only wants to take the second video card in the configuration and I see that if I delete it, it takes the first one and shows the video well, but once the second card is re-installed video returns the problem.

SLI as well as Crossfire are not supported in Vegas. I used to have two GTX570 and later two RX290 in my editing computer. For the Nvidia cards, the only way to use them both successfully was to disable SLI, removing the SLI bridge and select the second card for GPU acceleration. Similar for AMD cards but there is no blhysical connection, I just had to disable Crossfire.

Thanks for your OldSmoke advice, if I know that the Vegas PRO in version 16 and now I find out in version 17 they also do not support SLI well, as I also know that it can only use 32GB RAM at most even if my system has 64GB RAM.

As I use other applications also that if they work with SLI in version 16, despite losing speed, I would select 1 single card and it would work perfectly for me, selecting the first one attached here, a video like he doesn't want to select another.

When I had the two GTX570 in my system, I was in SVP13, so quite a while ago but I remember having similar issues. The main issues is that Vegas sees two cards with the identical device name. The only way I could change between cards was to disable GPU, restart Vegas and then select a different card. I later changed to one Nvidia and one AMD card in the same system. Using the AMD card for preview acceleration and the Nvidia card for CUDA rendering. Similar to what some users do with their Intel iGPU and a discrete card in the same system.
