Hi.. my name is Emby.

I have

i5 Intel Processor 7th Generation 3.00 Ghz

250GB SSD WD

8 GB RAM

SAPPHIRE AMD Graphic Card RX 560 .. 4GB

1 TB HDD Internal..

...

I love Vegas Pro .. Bcozz i can do almost anything in it... It cover almost every media software's. I can do music editing work, slideshow making, video editing, video converting, text animation and many other amazing things professionally.

I mostly edits wedding line videos. I worked in Vegas pro 15 build 261, & It worked well almost every time.. But from someday i am working on wedding cinematic work & i have to import FULL HD, 4k, SONY XD camera's GoPro clips & the number of clips sometimes reaches more than 800 - 1000. And On that time my Vegas Stucks a lot .. crashes many times, starting showing white blurry screen while hanging. Then i closed it from task manager.. also i sent crash report messages.

i am confused on one thing..

to judge reason of problem i tried same project in Vegas Pro 14 trial.. & i am amazed that in 14 version it runs smoothly.. hanging problem 80% less.

i liked 15 version bcoz it has new sleek design.. & some new needy features (like selectivley paste attributes & Skin Colors). thats why i purchased my own license of vegas pro 15, (firstly i was used my office's puchased version)

But am so disappointed on its this type of bugs ... crashing on importing HD clips i described above..

plsss help me solving this problem... if u think it is my PC's low configeration reason.. then why same project runs smoothily in 14 version plsssss. described properly // help me me....

thankyou so much..

Search this forum in disabling so4compound.dll and try again.

The number and size of your video assets are concerning. Taking the time to build proxies or intermediates would be well spent as insurance against system logjams and crashes.

Honestly, 720p mpeg-2 makes great lightweight proxies for cutting and editing, and it renders amazingly fast! I know that opinion borders on heresy here...

I just did a feature-length project and rendered out each scene (30 of them) in highest quality AVC intraframe. Those rendered AVC scenes and their associated .veg files are stored in a master folder on a separate drive, and then I import the rendered AVC files into a master project timeline .veg file, and render out the whole project in AVC. Only issue is if I have to make a change to one of the scenes, I edit that scene .veg file and have to swap it out on the master timeline .veg file. The final render took 2.5 hours. I found this method works better than nesting .veg files. Also, I think it helps to keep your source files separate from the drive you are rendering to. Just my experience.

It's Okay. "Ctrl+S" as often sa you can. Is only strange thing for me that in the times of Sonic Foundry&Sony all odd versions of Vegas was less buggy than even. Seems MAGIX love even numbers))) I'm editing wedding now and Vegas hangs about 8 times in a hour. Never crashes just hungs without any reason. All we have is to wait for VP16)))
