Please Help Work Out Why I CAN'T RENDER VIDEOS For Last SEVEN WEEKS!

Hey chaps

I'm beyond exhausted at this point.

Long time VEGAS user (on v20 now), since about 12/13?! Always loved it. Recently spent big bucks on a new custom built PC for video editing and since then VEGAS is essentially useless.

I'll preface this by saying, I'm not talking about complicated projects here. Here's something I just threw together.

Simple

The software is having real issues with any sort of crossfade. Sometimes even crashing in playback, but rendering is an absolute no go. I can watch it rendering and then when it gets to crossfades it slows down to 1fps and eventually crashes. That's when I'm lucky. Most of the time it just crashes the whole program as soon as I hit render.

Crash

Crash Report

The only break I'm getting (if you can call it that) is rendering with Vokuder... but then all manner of errors render that weren't in the edit. Sometimes it's majorly misaligned audio. Today it's coming out looking like this:

WHAT?!

I've been going back and forward with support at a snails pace over the last seven WEEKS with no end in sight. It's stopping me from being able to do my job.

It shouldn't be an issue for the PC

13th gen i9-13900k

64gb DDR5 ram

Asus RTX 4070

Windows 11 pro 64bit

If your reputable computer specialist sent you a system with flaws, you would be in good company. @Grazie

@bvideo - I’ve got no idea what you are referring to. Would you kindly elucidate your comment.

@Grazie Oh dear, your memory must be deteriorating? Here's the link -

@EricLNZ - Yeah, right-on… I didn’t appreciate just what this thread had to do with my own nightmare period. I had to read the OP comment. Builders, huh! No I hadn’t forgotten, I just saw your comment and was perplexed. I do hope our colleague here doesn’t go through anything like my own PC Builder episode.

Anyway The MONSTA! sends best wishes. 😀

I have just built two new pc systems using the i9 13900k and have stress tested both using cinebench 23. Even with water cooling (420 size in mine and 360 size in other) temps can hit 100C especially if you let your mother board optimise the cpu. In this case I saw power draw from the CPU at over 320w. Setting disable enforce all limits instead caps the power to 253w and still allows turbo boost to 5.8GHz (Intel default spec). Temps hit max of 98C with no thermal throttling. If your CPU is Air cooled you have a massive task in keeping from thermal throttling.
