I am reviewing my 10 year commitment to Vegas Pro. Am I alone with the kind of problems I have outlined below? does anyone know when we can expect v11a?
The bottom line is that version 11 let me down very badly on a time critical assignment. I have now tried running v11 on two quite different machines and on both machines I've been getting so many exception errors that I have lost count. Even one or two clean exits, which really shouldn't happen in the 21st-century (I am a system designer)
The first machine, which is causied me so much embarrassment, is a Siemens Fujitsu x9525 laptop running Vista (32bit) business.it has 3GB of main memory. It is using build 682.
The second machine is a Intel i7 based machine with a 3.4Ghz 2600k processor with 8GB of main memory. This machine runs Windows 7 (64 bit) professional, based on an AsusTek motherboard, using v11 build 683. GPU -- Geforce GTX 570.
On the second m/c, I have a workaround by ensuring that the project settings are the same as the clip properties. Not good but i've seen worse!!
On the laptop, the problem is far worse. Generally speaking, machine works okay until I come to render the project. Having spent the whole evening on location trying to find a set of rendering settings that worked (not just Main Concept, tried wmv and mov), I more or less gave up. Looking at Sony's minimum requirements, the machine seems well within limits. Nevertheless, I have come to the conclusion that it is just not man enough for the job and that I must look elsewhere editing software on this machine. Either that, or roll it back to version 10, which works okay.
Am I alone with all these problems or are there others out there?
