NVidia driver fix for preview problems in VEGAS Pro

Comments

Thanks for confirming there isn't an issue with envelopes (which are useful tools by the way!) and that Fx are broadly affected. Hopefully NVIDIA responds.

I've used something similar for time variable masking in Pan/Crop.

Vegas has been a learn by doing experience for me. I often try things I read about in the forum to learn something and/or see if I can help. (I spent several years as an apps engineer for a software company...)

In the meantime, there is another game Ready Driver 537.34.

Has anybody tried this driver

Works as well as 537.13... fx and preview while rendering fixed. But 422 banding still there in 32-bit projects

Wolfgang S. wrote on 9/13/2023, 9:23 AM

In the render processes, 537.13 generated artefacts here. That is why I am not sure if I will try it.

@j-v It is always interesting to read the the full NVIDEA release notes, looking at game ready 537.34:

Reading a bit further in the "Open Issues in Version 537.34" :

For notebook computers, issues can be system-specific and may not be seen on your particular notebook.

also: > [DaVinci Resolve] This driver implements a fix for creative application stability issues seen during heavy memory usage. We’ve observed some situations where this fix has resulted in performance degradation when running DaVinci Resolve. This will be addressed in an upcoming driver release. [4172676]

@VEGASDerek: Any news on your end? The recommended driver isn't working for me, shall I go back down the "compatibility mode" path?

Today I saw a new Studio driver that also works without that preview problem.
It is this driver

Confirm. Nvidia 537.42 Studio (2023/08/21) driver appears to solve the preview with effects, preview while rendering and grid display issues/bugs in Vegas Pro 20.

Installation was "Custom" with "Clean Installation" selected.

Tested with: Laptop, Windows 10 22H2, Nvidia 3070 Mobile wt Intel GPU hybrid configuration.

RogerS wrote on 9/22/2023, 9:32 AM

I just tried the latest studio driver but the preview didn't work with my GTX 1050 mobile.

RogerS wrote on 10/4/2023, 11:00 PM

Update: I did a clean uninstall of all NVIDIA drivers using their tool: https://developer.nvidia.com/cleanup-tool

Then I reinstalled the latest studio driver and it worked fine with my GTX 1050 mobile.

Note that after doing this I added VP 21 and selected it as the high performance graphics processor in NVIDIA Control Panel. Doing that breaks the preview. Deleting it fixes it.

Without selecting VEGAS I confirmed it is working with the NVIDIA GPU (task manager/performance). I just rendered the known good VP 20 benchmark project (see my signature) and times are similar to before. Maybe this will help someone still having issues.

My graphics card is GTX 1050 Ti and have been having the preview window problem and was using a driver from about a year ago to resolve this issue. Today, I decided to follow RogerS comment. I downloaded the Cleanup Utility program. I started the program and removed all traces of previous drivers, profiles and Experience program. The program then wanted to restart the computer which I did. Next I downloaded the latest driver which is 537.58, 10-10-23, Studio Version. I started the program and did a 'custom install'. All programs were preselected which I didn't change. However, I did check 'clean install' and then clicked on the install button. After the program finished, I started Vegas Pro 21 and imported a media clip. I added a sample text from the media generated tab and typed some text. LO and BEHOLD, the preview window works! Just thought this comment may help others out. Have a great day!

It's resolved by NVIDIA for most of us. Try following the steps I listed on 10/5 and see if it works for you.

StealthStarSwag wrote on 11/8/2023, 11:18 PM

I downloaded version 546.01 of the Game Ready Driver (since I do both gaming and video editing on my laptop), and while doing so didn't fix the problem initially, I read some of the comments on here and tried a different solution. I clicked on the three dots, clicked "reinstall driver," chose "custom installation," and checked the "clean reinstall" box (this last part is very important). Now, the video preview window works like a charm, and the effects show up immediately after dragging and dropping them on video clips -- no more having to close the dialog box to see how the effects look! The final litmus test will be when I render this week's video out! Wish me luck! 🙏
