Super post Nick. Very helpful. Excellent.
Super post Nick - as all posts from you 👍
I work mainly with AVCHD files 1920x1080, 50 fps. When I reduce to 25 fps in project properties the playback framerate is significant better (if it comes to more tracks,PIP, Color correction an so on) .

Nice suggestion! I added it (currently #8). Thanks
This is something not clear for me about "Deinterlace method" : if you are working with Progressive footage (so selected in Project Properties) there will be no to deinterlacing happenings even if "Interpolate fields" or "Blend fields" is selected in Project Properties. Am I wrong to think so ?

No, you are correct. I had a feeling that the deinterlace method setting still had some obscure effect even if working with progressive footage in a progressive project, but I can't find any reference to that. So I've removed the reference to setting the deinterlace method "none" for progressive footage. I've also moved that section down the article, below other more important considerations.
Hi Nick, thanks for the confirmation !
Thanx Nick! Lots of good advice there. Like others, I'd upgrade processor power and upgrade video card(s) and get the same results. Thank you for such a detailed walk thru for such a common issue.
Take a bow sir . . .
great thanks!
Bookmarked! ty Nick
This is great information, and thank you very much for it!
I have downloaded and installed the trial for VP15, and have been dismayed at how horrible the preview is. I have tried the suggestions in this topic, and improvements to VP15 preview still leave it very, very far behind VP13. I hope that can be fixed, and that GPU rendering support can also be enhanced to include AMD GPUs.
System:
i7-6850K with 6 cores and 12 threads, standard clock (3.6GHz)
64GB DDR4 RAM, quad-channel
Samsung EVO 960 M.2 drive, 1TB
AMD R9-390 GPU
You MAY find this helps.....
I want to use Sony Vegas 16 Pro, but it has a lot of problems. It has preview lag, when I press play it stutters, I get crashes, render crashes, and slow rendering
Here are my specs :
P.S. : this article didn't help, neither did the other one's
You are better to start a new thread outside of this FAQ.
The system specs are a start, but you will need to provide a lot more details (footage, project, render settings) to sort this out. Look at the FAQ "information needed to help you" and post that info. Also look at the crashing troubleshooter guides.
Amazing Post Nick. wish i saw this thread before, had to figure and test most of those settings myself in the past
A suggested addition:
Leave Project Pixel Format set at 8-bit.
Item 12.
“Disable effects on events, tracks or the video output by un-checking the effects in the "Video Event FX" window. For example:”
You can also simply right click the track or event fx or project media fx icon and “bypass all” “enable all” “delete all” etc.
