vegas EDIT

I was a user of the vegas movie studio edit version 15 and 17. I am a simple video user and tested it on another Dell i7 notebook also with 8GB. (Dell i7 windows 10 pro / Card name: Intel(R) UHD Graphics 620)

(I don't intend to make sophisticated videos, simple tutorial videos / but I'm not going to test that other, inferior option of "magix movie studio". )

Initially I tested the Vegas Edit version 19 with 8GB and do not intend to upgrade memory. It loaded and on small tests was ok. My only issue is that on the titular machine, with 8GB I could not install vegas EDIT version 20 because the test deadline expired, but I also did not understand the real reason of the test installer (I had tested smaller version and when trying to install larger version he barred!). So how do I solve this issue to install the test version,20 in to evaluate this issue in practice 8GB against the recommended 16GB, in relation to the projects I saved in version 17 of vegas movie studio?
Tanks!

What do you mean by smaller and larger version of the installer?

You should be able to load VP 20 Edit with 8GB of ram even if it's less than optimal. If you can't use the trial anymore you could try a 1 month subscription.

1 month subscription is what I'd recommend.

VEGAS will run on 8GB, but don't expect it to easily edit 4K, or even 1080p, without building proxies for your media, and I wouldn't try to render to anything above 1080p.

Hi, smaller (= older versions) larger (the translator copied and only from his question I realized he translated it wrong/ the content should be current version instead of larger).

I was able to install the test version 20, I watched some tutorials on youtube. I configured this version to be lighter (example: deinterlace method = none, preference video: thumbnails = none or head...) and finally I was able to load projects from vegas movie studio 17. As version 20 takes more memory I can also test restricting the use of other programs at the same time, as well, I adjusted the maximum and minimum amounts of virtual memory of windows 10, so that in projects of 15 minutes with 8 to 10 trackers, responded satisfactorily. (this is within the 2 minutes of rendering allowed, already gives you a good idea of what this version brings of benefit in my case)

Thanks
