Hi, i've lately came across a problem in sony vegas 14 64bit. Basically what happens is after recording my screen with OBS and putting the video into sony vegas, it's fine, however as soon as i make a cut to the video, the preview goes black and it also renders this way. I have searched the internet but yet still haven't found a solution. Any ideas?

One known problem with OBS is frame rate. Are you using a constant frame rate? Variable frame rates have not been good for Vegas in the past.

Check Quantize to frames turned on.

This is a fault with hardware capturing with OBS and using Vegas to edit. It's not compatible for some reason. I simply transcoded it and then I could edit it without the black spaces around the edit points. You don't get the problem if you set OBS to use software encoding instead but ofcourse if you are a computer game player you may not have the extra cpu to spare.

What frame rate did you capture at? I used 60fps, and had same problem as original poster, but software encode at 60fps no problem.

I think it is not fair to the other users that you present your experience as THE truth. Reason for me from now on not to comment those kind of statements of you any further. Sorry.

 


It's a known problem with OBS hardware encoding and editing with Vegas. Here's an example. But with software encoding there is no such problem. Sorry to upset you

Hi original poster. I have confirmed the fault with hardware encoding using OBS & edit/splits that cause black frames, but the fix is simple. I had not realised that I had re-enabled so4compoundplug.dll a hardware decoder that causes this fault with reading hardware encoded video from OBS. The fix is simple, and detailed below.

No more black frames 😆
