when i click the screen capture, or select it in menu, it pops open a new window that is completely blank, no settings or picture at all.

just bought the software.

my computer is a alienware r11

10900KF - 64megs of ram - rtx 3080 gpu

please help? what settings do i need to change, i have no idea.

also when i click transitions tab and move the mouse over the different filters the screen kind of scrambles with the transition on the filter's name. kind of weird.

There are a few queries about screen capture, please use the forum search function, I'm almost sure the previous posts will help you.

Which version of Vegas Pro are you using?
If it's not 482, download the latest version from your Magix user account.

i watched a youtube video:

How To Make VEGAS Stop Freezing / Crashing And Run Faster in 5 minutes! 👨‍🏫 VEGAS 18 Tutorial #122 - YouTube

he said to hold down shift-click option menu to show a internal menu item, and seach for opencl/ at the bottom, and turn those options to false. and that fixed my crash/freeze problem with vegas pro 18, he said the company has plans to remove them anyway, since they are old and outdated. but he said to be careful in there since you can completely mess up vegas pro 18. and enable legacy in file i/o prefferences. also enable under video, set dynamic ram to 1/3 of your memory. thumbnails to show in video events to none. that's all the stuff i have changed to make it work.
