Rendering 4k video in HD

Hello!

This is something that started happening like few weeks ago and I never experienced it in 10 years of using Vegas. I'm currently on the latest version.
I always export my videos in HD quality, and sometime I use 4k footage mixed with HD one.
The problem that I have now is, when I render a video, all clips that are in 4k are not downscaled to fit the screen as they normally are in a preview window, but instead only top left part of a clip is visible.

I didn't change any options, at least not intentionally and have no idea why it's happening now, someone please help!

In the Project Properties window (Video tab), is 'Adjust source media to better match project or render settings' checked? If it's not checked, try checking it. If it is checked, try unchecking it.

It was checked. I unchecked it and it was still not working. I reopened Vegas and now it rendered correctly. I checked the box again and it still rendered the file correctly. What is this sorcery lol

Thanks, I hope it will continue to work now!

Sorry, that's all, first time I'm using this forum so didn't know I need to mark it!
