Movie Studio Platinum 12.0 Can't Edit Videos Rendered within Program

Tokidokianimation wrote on 1/9/2020, 8:45 PM

(I don't know if Movie Studio Platinum 12.0 (Build 895) gets considered as Vegas or not, but someone on the Magix forum seemed to think it did.)

Visual of what happens (2 minutes before the program crashes):

EVERYTIME I render a video within the program, when I try to edit that rendered video within Movie Studio Platinum 12.0, if I tinker with the video too much it either:

A. Makes the video turn black but still plays, or
B. Will do what it does in the youtube video within minutes and lock up.

I don't recall this being an issue when I first had the program though.
This DOES NOT happen with videos that I never rendered within the program.

Anyone know what could be causing this problem, and how to fix it?

1) Why are you editing clips that you have edited previously?

2) If you must, are you using a lossless output file type?

3) Does MSP 12 support “nesting”?

@john_dennis No VMSP12 does not support nesting. None of the Movie Studio product line do. Only Vegas Pro.

@Tokidokianimation What you have is Sony Vegas Movie Studio Platinum 12. A few years ago Sony Creative Software sold the Vegas product line to Magix so all Vegas editing software is now produced by Magix who also have their own lines of various software. But there is this separate forum for Vegas which is why I redirected you here from the Magix Community forum.

As for your problem please clarify what you mean by "render a video within the program". Are you exporting the video as a rendered file and then importing this into VMS and it's this file that is causing problems? If so which render template are you using when you render this file.

Thanks for your response!
It's actually for different reasons:

#1.

1.For a few I deleted the old project files. (Not realizing the project I was working on was going to become more long term.)

2. For others it's I have a project of creating words/sounds? And it's easier to have certain combinations of those sounds by name as a video file vs trying to keep track of them all in one project file I feel?

3. For certain sounds I have to speed up the video using the Ctrl key? But it only lets me pull it back so far before it won't let me go further? So I'll have to render that file to be able to make it faster.

#2. Not sure, but now you've got me thinking it'll be a good idea to start doing that!

#3. As for nesting, I went to look it up and the answer seems to be no: https://www.vegascreativesoftware.info/us/forum/imbedding-nesting-projects-in-movie-studio-12--95499/

Oh okay!
All it says is "Movie Studio Platinum 12.0 in the program header so that's why it seemed weird to call it vegas to me.~

What I mean is when I finish making a video for say a file called "aʊ" and I click "Render as..." I go through all the steps.
Then later on the person wants me to make "aʊər" so then I bring the file I rendered "aʊ" into Movie Studio 12.0 that file will be dysfunctional.
As long as I work fast enough I can still work with the file. But if I edit it or move it around too much, the program will crash within seconds to a few minutes.

Are you rendering "aʊ" with the template shown in your screenshot in your first post?

You are probably correct, I no longer have it installed to check. But it was a Vegas product and when Magix took it over Sony got dropped from the title and replaced by Vegas in later versions.

In my video I was using "iə" and "r" together to make "iər".
(So same problem, different sounds.)

A few suggestions/comments:

  1. You are using the 64 bit version of MS12? I ask because it came with both 32 and 64 bit versions.
  2. Drop your preview quality down from Best Full to Preview or Good Auto
  3. In your export template untick "Allow source to adjust frame rate". It probably won't make any difference but removes a possibility for a problem
  4. Your export template is meant for a final delivery mp4 file. Try a file more suitable template when creating an intermediary for using on your timeline. Look in the Sony XAVC/XAVCS templates, if these are available in MS12.

Sony XAVC S is in my MSP 13 and later only, XAVC as of 16. (As Eric said MS versions have been part of the VEGAS product lines with Sony/SCS and MAGIX. SCS dropped "Vegas" from the "official" titles of their MS versions 12 and 13.)

With all the buffers you are creating, maybe increase your pagefile? More RAM wouldn't hurt, either.
