Given that Vegas Pro 16 was released some 3.5 years ago and Pluraleyes hasn't been available for quite some time as an individual purchase since Maxon took control of Red Giant (you now have to buy Red Giant Complete on a subscription arrangement in order to get Pluraleyes), has this problem only occurred recently after some years of no problems? If yes, has anything changed on your computer recently that has perhaps caused the problem?

PluralEyes can work with Vegas Pro 16. Try reinstalling it? It should appear here: C:\Program Files\Red Giant\PluralEyes 4

AudioSyncR works far better than Pluraleyes, and at a fraction of the cost.

Thank you for the answers, the problem is the same as usual, reinstallation of the system, pop [previously worked, now not :(
I'm fed up with Pluraleyes, I'll see if AudioSyncR works

Write to Maxxon support, they can potentially just send you the dll. It works here no issues VP 15-19.

There is a brand new learning curve with AudioSyncR, not at all like PE. Be sure and watch the tutorial videos and read the Help in detail.

I use Pluraleyes in Vegas Pro 18 and have done so since buying it in 2013. It is much more expensive now and I would not buy it this time around as there are alternatives including the Happy Otter script. You can sync within Vegas now anyway with the built in tool without the need of Pluraleyes or the script – but on the few occasions I've tried that it has been very slow. I'm not sure if Vegas 16 has it built in though.

You probably have Pluraleyes version 4 as that has been out a long time – I upgraded it in 2018. If you are still on Pluraleyes 3 there may be a payable upgrade to 4 if you ask Maxon.

There was a point at which many of us found that Pluraleyes would not work, I can't recall which version of Vegas combined with the now Maxon was the issue.

Anyway, you need two dll files which are

PE4VegasLoader14.dll

and

PE4Vegas14.dll

Some people only needed the first one.

The first one should be in:

C:\Program files\Red Giant\Pluraleyes 4\

copy it if it is there and paste it into:

C:\ProgramData\Vegas Pro\Application Extensions\

As I say some of us needed both dll's in both folders.

I kept the dll's for download in future just in case. You can download them if you wish from my Google Drive folder:

DaVinci Resolve now does syncing quickly and efficiently though learning Resolve just for that would be a major commitment! Resolve is free unless you need the bells and whistles Studio version at around £300 and is great but it is substantially different to use in several ways so you cannot just jump in. Resolve also works now with Pluraleyes so long as you have the latest Pluraleyes version which is 4.1.11 You use Pluraleyes as a standalone then import an xml file into Resolve. You won't find Pluraleyes 4.1.11 on its own in Maxon, you have to download its shooter suite and get it from there.
