Need help to confirm Generated Media bug 9.0a

xberk wrote on 8/8/2009, 8:24 PM
I'd like to get a report into Sony on all Generated Media in 9.0a. It would help to have confirmation on what I am seeing.

UNDO and REDO seem to be a problem with ANY type of Generated Media in 9.0a. By this I mean, "Checkerboards, Color Gradients, Solid colors, ETC" -- ALL the types of Generated media (not just TEXT). Can anyone else reproduce the following in 9.0a?

Create project with all types or any type of generated media in it.
Save the project.
Close it.
Reopen it.
Add any type of generated media.
Copy this generated media. PASTE it somewhere on the timeline.
Do an UNDO. Do a second UNDO.
All the generated media goes black in the preview window and will not display.
If the project is saved and reopened it will generate an error saying there is missing media. If you do REDO (Ctrl-Y) after the second UNDO weird things happen to the generated media.

I gave it a shot and I'm not seeing anything go black (I'm using the "ridges" media in checkerboard). I saved the project and closed. Re-opened... copied and pasted... then undid (twice)... redid. Copy/pasted again.... undid/redid and still nothing.

Open the same file with the "ridges" media.
Add some generated media to it. So you have the orig "ridges" and some new gen media with it. Copy and paste the new gen media. Do undo. Do it again. this is where the prob occurs. If you are doing that and not seeing the problem then maybe it's just me.

Hang on.... I'm seeing something here...

I now have about 10 generated media on the time line (some copied... some original) and when I closed/reopened I got a "missing media" message and one of the generated media was not there (not sure if it was a copied one or original)

Weird. But glad to hear that you have no problem.
I can get it to do it every time on my system. I'm working up a little video to show it. I'll post a link tomorrow. I've only tried it on V9.0a 64 bit so far.

Ok Blink. You are seeing something. I think others have been running into this without knowing what gives and what caused it -- I think it's the UNDO devil.

Well there is certainly something there. You might want to file a bug report and see what they say.

I will say though that I had to undo/redo quite a few times and add/copy/paste more than just a couple of time. You'll have to nail this down a bit ore clearly for the bug report.

Thanks for the help Blink .. I will file a bug report on this by tomorrow.. I've worked up a short video screen capture that really shows it .. I'll post that link when it's done processing at Vimeo. Love to have a few more confirmations to go with it.

I hope this is useful -not precisely what you asked for, but I was also interested in Mike's thread re Media Manager because I had changed that setting the morning I got 'bitten'. I wasn't able to reproduce anything re the MM, but the rest corroborates the gist of what I've read about the text problems.

After this test, I tried to reproduce as per the top of this thread, but couldn't, although it took two tries -Vegas crashed on the first try as soon as I added the ridges.

best,
Keith S
