Preview Low Frames

Feldman9000 wrote on 12/6/2023, 7:59 PM

Just purchased from humble bundle. I guess i should have tried this first. The preview panel is awful. No matter the settings i've looked at or tweaked, it's not good. This shouldn't be this way out of the box. I have an RTX 3080, Intel 12700K and 128GB DDR5 ram. I moved away from adobe b/c their software is garbage, but it's functioning better than this. Media i'm importing is at 4K 60, it seems the preview is different than the source. I'm not using an NVME drive for where this is located. I have matched resolutions on the display and refresh rate, as well. This is why I was afraid to move from what I knew would work. Assistance needed b/c i need to be able to see my preview in real time.

@Feldman9000 A few questions as we need more info.

  1. What is your Vegas Pro version and build number

Post a 4K-60 sample of your typical media and I'll see how the machine in my signature handles it in Vegas Pro 21-187. I don't have 19 on my machine.

I have 19 on my systems here. Can you share MediaInfo? 4K, MP4, etc. doesn't really say anything about the file.

Make sure your Intel iGPU is enabled to help with decoding.

I don't see how the igpu has anything to do with this? There are processors without igpu's. Whats funny is i moved away from adobe bc its glitchy but atleast the previews work. And thats in rush. Im trying to get my money back at this point. Why am i even having to do this?

You have a 12700K which comes with an integrated Intel GPU.

That GPU features Intel's excellent quicksync decoding (QSV).

VEGAS uses GPU decoding to accelerate preview performance and works particularly well with QSV. So enable QSV and try it again.

What if i had a 12700kf? Ill just go back to what works. Got refunded already. Get your software in order.

Who are you talking to? We are users of VEGAS.

The iGPU also helps with Premiere and Resolve.
