  RE: [Closed] Why Buy Vegas if Resolve is Free?
  It looks like Blackmagic is trying to disrupt the NLE business. If I were to upgrade to Vegas 14 (which I still haven't done), it would cost me only $50 LESS than an outright purchase of the studio version of Resolve 14. There were two things have

  RE: Video Preview Lag!
  Ok, I've been banging my head with this one like many others. Vegas 14 (or 13) simply will NOT preview my 1080p at 30 or 60fps. 30fps admittedly handles better but still with stutter, and 60 will in fact take MINUTES to come out of freeze when I

  RE: Vegas 14 incompatibility with pascal GPUs?
  Sounds like poor display driver support of OpenCL with the 1050ti, or possible a hardware level issue with the way the 1050 GPU is interfacing the motherboard. This is early adopter type of crap you run into. An updated driver, or BIOS upgrade, or

  Hey all, Just upgraded Vague-us Pro 11 to Vague-us pro 14, and render times on the exact same projects, using exact same settings seemed slower. So I ran a whole mess of tests, and yes - 14 is way slower on the renders. A 5 minute project (project

  Nothing is going to edit X-AVC S smoothly. SVP13 has no issue with editing a single stream on my system. The only drop in fps is during transitions. If I need to transcode my 4K footage to make it smooth for editing, I must well transcode XAVC-S to
