When selecting in Video preview preferences, GPU acceleration of video processing "Optimal- NvideaGeForce RTX 2080 Super", I have a black screen window, when viewing the video.

I have two GeForce RTX 2080 Super with  NVLINK GPU BRIDGE. When changing the GPU, the problem does not disappear.

When I select in the video preview settings, GPU acceleration for video processing is "Off” - everything is fine.

@Alexander-Gasman

Please clarify the branding of the software you have bought.

Please see https://www.vegascreativesoftware.info/us/forum/important-information-required-to-help-you--110457/

and provide the information requested under sections B and C, particularly in relation to the other specs of your computer and, very importantly, the media that you are using. A detailed MediaInfo report as per C.1 would be very helpful.

Did this problem exist in versions of Vegas Pro 19 prior to 532 or has the problem just started with b532?

EDIT: Okay, I see you've since added more info about your computer - thanks. But where are you seeing Sony Vegas Pro branding in the program or via any purchase information/receipt from Vegas Pro's owner, MAGIX?

@Alexander-Gasman there is no such product. Sony sold Vegas at version 13. Versions 14 and newer are all Magix versions.

Always the same: First time poster and Vegas newbie, calling Vegas, Sony Vegas....how can it be?

@Alexander-Gasman Hi. I'm experiencing the same thing with Vegas Pro 21 and two NVLinked 2070 Super GPUs. Did you manage to resolve the problem? Thanks.

And by the way, I still keep inadvertantly referring to it as Sony Vegas.

System specs (as of 07/1/2021):

Edition    Windows 10 Home
Version    20H2
Installed on    ‎12/‎08/‎2020
OS build    19042.1052
Experience    Windows Feature Experience Pack 120.2212.2020.0

Vegas Pro 21 (full time professional user since Sonic Foundry Vegas 3). Boris Continuum, Red Giant Magic Bullet Suite, Universe Suite, everything from NewBlueFX (I produce their tutorials), Neat Video, Vegasaur, PluralEyes.

Also a heavy user of After Effects, Cinema4D and other video/animation/motion graphic production tools.

About to take a long hard look at Resolve, to see if it can handle my mixed format timelines without crashing. It's a shame, as I adore the Vegas workflow - but it falls over way too frequently for me to trust it. After 20+ years I've kinda had enough!

Device name    i9
Processor    Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-10900X CPU @ 3.70GHz   3.70 GHz
Installed RAM    64.0 GB (63.7 GB usable)
Device ID    77F498C3-7EBE-479E-AE21-AAFC8AC96B26
Product ID    00325-81833-14367-AAOEM
System type    64-bit operating system, x64-based processor
Pen and touch    Pen and touch support with 10 touch points
GPU Nvidia 4070Ti

Most frequently used cameras include Panasonic G9, GH4, GH5 (into an Atomos Shogun Flame), GoPro Hero Black 5 and 6, Mavic Air 2 drone. A typical Vegas Pro timeline could include footage from any or all of the above, png/tiff seqeunces from Cinema 4D/After Effects (often with alpha channels), stills, voiceovers - a real mixed bag!
