Media FX Problem When Changing Project Settings in Vegas Pro 14

Former user wrote on 8/21/2018, 1:04 PM

Every time I change the setting of a Full HD 1920x1080 Widescreen project to a widescreen SD 720x480 project in vegas pro 14 and later, in all events where there are MEDIA FX effects the bottom of the video stays with a horizontal line where the effect never applied. This does not occur when I apply EVENT FX. Occurs only with MEDIA FX. Note: When I took the tests the GPU Acceleration of video processing option was OFF

This problem does not only happen in the preview because it also appears in the rendered video. Here this problem does not occur in earlier versions of Vegas. The video below was made in Vegas pro 13 and the problem does not occur in it.

Can someone please try to reproduce this problem on your system to see if it is something fixed or just a timely problem that occurs here on my machine. I'll leave the video used in the test on the link below.

On the way to try reproing the issue it crashes my VP14 (when I try to playback the file after the FX was applied).

In VP15 I can repro your issue without VP15 crashing. Also I see this only happens when that "Adapt Source Media" option is checked in Project Properties. So a workaround is to uncheck this option and use Pan/Crop (adopt to output) instead to avoid black bars at the sides.

Thanks @Marco. 

Your workaround worked.

@Former user I know some time's gone now, but for further investigation around this issue let me ask which GPU does your system use?

@Marco.

Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-3340 CPU @ 3.10GHz

Intel Graphics HD 2500

8Gb Ram

Nvidia Gtx 660Ti 2gb

Windows 7 SP1 64Bits

 

This problem only occurs when the GPU Acceleration of Video Processing option is OFF.

When the Acceleration of video processing option is in Intel Graphics HD 2500 or Nvidia GTX 660TI this problem does not occur.

I also discovered that even with this problem if I check the "Stretch video to fill output frame size (do not letterbox)" option in the Render dialog, the rendering occurs normal and the problem does not appear in the rendered video.

Thanks, I forwarded all this info to the tech devs.
