Handbrake and undo buffer errors

Hi all,

I've been using the Vegas 2 Handbrake script for a while with Vegas Pro 12 (Windows 10, and previously, 7 64bit). It works great but it's always indicated the unmounting thing isn't working properly - I get the command prompt window popping up once Handbrake closes, but it ends with an error: something like "...the process "stop_render.exe" not found".

This would all be fine but then, whenever I try and do anything back in Vegas, I get an undo buffer error (actually, I get lots of them which I have to close):  

"An Error occurred while processing the Undo Buffer. You should save your work immediately using a new project filename and restart Vegas
The reason for this error could not be determined"

If I relaunch Vegas it works fine again (no undo buffer errors) until I send something out to Handbrake - rinse and repeat...

I've finally gotten frustrated enough that I thought I'd ask for some help!

Did I mess up the installation somewhere or is there some trick I'm missing? I tried running the batch files and stop_render file directly from the folder in C:\frameserver\batch\ and noticed that Windows didn't want to run them without some UAC confirmation - not sure if it's blocking the file from running in the background or something?? Although, when I force it to run I appear to get the same error so not sure.

Of course, I'm also not 100% certain the undo buffer and handbrake unmount script errors are actually related problems, but the evidence is pretty strong.

I know a lot of people use this fantastic script, so hopefully someone has come across (and worked out how to fix) this issue already! :)

Thanks,

Tim
