I couldn't do anything with Vegas (v21,208) yesterday trying to edit GoPro 8x7 format (5312x4648) at 60FPS. It was freezing on loading, rendering proxies, and during editing. However, today when I just loaded a few of the same videos, I had no

RE: Cant export in Movie Studio 15

Is the video media sourced from the same device (e.g. camera, phone, action cam, etc) and using the same video (e.g. .mp4 (AVC) aka H.264) as you've successfully used in VMS15 in the past? Or is the video from a newly acquired source such as new

RE: Vegas 21 (315) Lag when handling clips (Trimming and Moving)

What version were you using? You said you skipped 300 and 314- did you also skip 21.315? 22.93 is a refined version of 21.315 in my opinion. The old versions like 21.208 used so4compound decoder for HEVC (and benefited from Intel QSV decoding).

RE: Flickering

It's that GoPro is an acquisition format that is not optimized for nonlinear editing. The conversion to ProRes, which is designed as an intermediate format is lossless, and easier on your resources when decoded. (ProRes 422 is also fine and likewise

RE: PC Build for Vegas Pro 4K HEVC Editing - Feedback Needed

Due to it being a heavily compressed format (much more so than AVC), HEVC is a difficult format to use with good timeline performance. From comments on the forum, I understand that the Vegas team are working on improved decoding of HEVC. You might

RE: Vegas Pro 21 stutters preview constantly and also crashes.

Thanks for the suggestions. @VEGASDerek, That is a great idea. I'll try that now to start over and see what's happening. Regarding the MP4 video, Looking at the CODEC info in VLC it's HEVC (H.265) (hvc1). The audio is MPEG AAC Audio (mp4a). For any

RE: Issues VEGAS Pro 21 build 300 - GoPro 11 5.3k Clipping Video Lag

Disable legacy AVC decoding. Okay, trying. Prior to the this release, we had to enable this to make the software stable. Non-legacy AVC decoding in this release means you are using mxcompound, the new plugin that it quite fast with NVIDIA

HEVC 4:2:0 with 10-bit works in VEGAS with Intel and NVIDIA. You have to uncheck legacy HEVC. Just tested it with 2 different HEVC files (Sony and GoPro) using my UHD 770 iGPU. Thanks for the tip. I tried it but for some reason result is still

RE: Vegas Pro 20 randomly freezes during working on a timeline

These days, every device (monitor, TV...) plays 30/60fps. So WHY transcoding some 30 fps footage to 25 fps? It WILL be laggy Wow! How dismissive? And just plainly wrong. HEVC from GoPro 11 and the S23 is still laggy in Vegas Pro even with properties

RE: HEVC LAG PREVIEW

@andyrpsmith I've noticed the new decoder uses a lot of Vram, but maybe it's like gaming where there is a difference between reserved and used Vram, and it's just reserving too much. Example a 5.3K GoPro clip uses 21GB Vram, SO4 uses 11GB, but is

No GPU decoding it seems. Your ram is quite full. Could you make a file from this camera available for download (Google Drive?) I tried a similar GoPro file and it had GPU decoding on my system. (greater than 5K resolution) You could try disabling
