what? So I'm not able to ask questions? this is the link support sent me too..... Oh this is TRASH if that's the case

@Grind Hi, because you referred to your program as 'Sony Vegas' @3POINT is inferring that you have a cracked copy of Vegas, he has an outspoken dislike for anyone who may not have a legit copy of Vegas, Sony haven't owned or been a part of Vegas for some yrs & many people legit or not make the mistake of including Sony in the name, So don't take it personally if you do have a genuine copy of 'Magix' Vegas Pro 19 & welcome to the forum, someone will surely help you.

@Former user My friend, I'm using Vegas since version 5 and indeed after the take over of Vegas by Magix in 2016 form Sony, I made a few weeks the mistake to call Vegas still Sony Vegas. So don't tell such nonsense that a lot of legal users still make that mistake today, at least I do not know any legal user who still makes that mistake.

@3POINT I'm not defending the OP but i'm sure there must be people who have used genuine Sony Vegas in the past & have updated without realising that even tho Magix is blazoned all over the pop-ups & offers that Sony has nothing to do with it any more, Sony Vegas is still all over Youtube & although Magix bought Vegas in 1016, it will have been sold from genuine suppliers for at least another yr or more, I know it's 2022 now but it feels like the last 2yrs since Covid has been a bit of a blank, so from 2017- 2020 is only 3yrs, time flies by if you don't update every yr, & we're seeing it recently, people blindly updating Movie Studio & then realising it's Magix not Vegas version, some people don't read the page & won't even know the difference between Magix & Sony,

I post vids on Youtube & i'm in personal contact with a couple of others, one who has nearly 200,000 subs, he only just upgraded from a Sony version 14 to V19 because he wanted to use Vegasaur to cut out silences in his pod casts, but even when he did upgrade he mentioned Sony in the comments just out of habit i think & i had to mention the comments on here about how it ISN'T Sony any more 😂

I agree that cracked pirated versions don't deserve help but to automatically assume that it is a cracked version because someone mentions Sony is presumptuous & a bit hard nosed, I agree though to what has been written in other posts, that it wouldn't be a bad thing if to join/post on this forum you have to fill in your login details with a genuine activation code - serial number,

Strange habit. You're sure he used Vegaspro legally? VP14 was already not Sony anymore!

Maybe to avoid further misunderstandings, wrong assumptions etc with such "Sony" Vegas users, it would be not bad that every forum member here would first direct such users to this thread Sony Vegas vs. VEGAS (vegascreativesoftware.info) instead of credulous supporting. This gives the OP the possibility to correct his "mistake" without annoying me and other legal users of Vegaspro.

We probably never will be able to stop Vegas piracy but we're able to stop support the Vegas pirates.

I recently upgraded to vegas Pro 19. I've taken hours to edit a music video but my rendered video looks totally different from what I edited. Some of the clips are flashing darker in transitions and others a just extremely darker than what I edited on the program. I'm pushing for time on this project and I was thinking everything was smooth until now. How do I fix this? I tried going in and adjusting my color curves and contrast but it flashed extremely bright in glitches. These are my go to Render settings for Sony vegas I've attached photos. Please help me because I really don't feel like re-editing this video on another software.

Grind, your mention of "flashing darker in transitions" and "flashed extremely bright in glitches" prompts me to suggest you check to be sure your NVidea GPU driver is up to date. This seems to be a common denominator in glitchy render threads and recently solved my render issues.

Other than that, sharing project settings, media info reports for your input video and output videos, etc. may reveal other issues.

@3POINT Sorry i was going off memory, just went back through the WhatsApp texts, Oct 2021

'suddenly it all became clear why Vegasaur is not working for me.... It's because it's for Pro and not Movie Studio! I'm such an idiot!!  I'm gonna need to buy pro by the looks of it...!'
