Hi I'm relatively new to Vegas Pro 14, but I have had some experience with editing, and rendering videos from Vegas Pro, and my current project has given me the most trouble so far. The Vegas always crashes as soon as I press the button to start rendering. I'm rendering the project at 1920x817 for a cinematic aspect ratio, and I fear that it might be that causing the crashes, but surely there is a way to figure this out. I have tried a fair amount of quick fixes like: no GPU rendering, or Running as administrator, etc.

I have the crash report right here:

Again since I'm relatively new, I understand very little of this jargon, so if any of you could figure this out, I would be extremely grateful. Thanks for reading!

Here are my specs if it helps:

Windows 10

GTX 960

8GB DDR4 RAM
