Odd bug: freeze when clicking on Master Bus window

David Johns wrote on 9/30/2014, 3:00 PM

I have Vegas Pro 13, build 373 and I just noticed a weird bug - wondering if anyone else gets this?

When I click anywhere on the Master Audio Bus window (eg to drag the main fader controls), the entire Vegas interface locks up.

It hasn't crashed as such - if I click Vegas's icon on the Windows taskbar to minimise it then bring it back, the interface works again

But if I now move the mouse anywhere over the Master Audio Bus window again, the fader controls are tied to the mouse position even without me touching them or holding the mouse button down. If I click the button to release them, they're set - and the interface freezes again.

Anyone else see this or got any suggestions? It makes doing anything on the main audio output a right palaver...

Cheers
David

I'm not using a sound card either -- just Microsoft Sound Mapper, or Windows Classic Driver; the Preview master freezes with both -- I like the undock tip, David. Better than nothing.

Yes, VP12 was absolutely fine. I've had this audio setup for years now, it's been great with VP8,9,10,11,12!!

Now, as for the preview output via Blackmagic Intensity to a TV - don't get me started :-(

Just a quick update, having sent my detailed system info to Sony on their request, they have now responded with:

"Thank you for writing back. This is a known issue and is being investigated by our developers. Thank you for reporting this issue and providing your system information.

So hopefully a forthcoming update will fix it.

Does this problem occur if you use the Mixing Console view vs the Master Bus view?
