I have commented on open betas before. I have gone into much more specific details about this with our beta testers and the moderators, but to put it simply, we do not have the infrastructure in place to do this and currently do not have the ability to implement the needed things to put together an appropriate open beta program. Also, I do not have the bandwidth to handle the enormous amount of feedback we would receive.

However, we continue to endeavor to improve our processes as best we can with the resources at our disposal and hopefully some day we will have the ability to provide open beta builds for our customers.

Just keep up the good work. It is understandable to anyone that things aren't perfect. The world isn't perfect. Vegas Pro is now a supercharged editing software getting better by the minute (or month). Launching and transitioning to a new version is always a risk. For us users we can stay with or revert to the previous version. For the developers it is necessary to release new versions - even if it is not 100.00% perfect or tested yet. That's the way the world is.

I've also painfully learned the lesson never to change program version when on an important business deadline. Finish the job and before starting the next one try the new software version. That is true of all my different software I use in my work, not just Vegas.

Looking forward to the new versions and features, especially increased speed and stability.

I'm setting up Vegas Pro 21 build 300 on a dual monitor system. How do I get, for example, the preview window over on my second monitor?

@Jimigune if you already have your monitors set up with Windows, you can have the Preview show up in the second monitor. I'll preview something in the second monitor, but I don't always have it active.

Text to speech not working. New version has 3 View options (all Beta); 'Transcript', Subtitles' and 'Text Based Editing' and none of them are reading/generating the audio into text. Lots of LENGTHY 'processing Custom_160' (whatever that is) but nothing is coming up. Previous version 21 worked fine.

@scott-kolden how about adding a screenshot of what you are seeing? I just tried it and it's working here for me.

My bad! I meant Speech to Text.

Could you still share a screenshot? Or start a new thread so it doesn't get lost.

Vegas Hub doesnt work now in VP21-300..
I've logged out and in again, it seems happy with the login and the hub explorer works but when I try to open the Hub window it says ' Checking login state... ' then I'm stuck on this screen with fidgeting dots and the message 'An unhandled error has occurred. Return to Home '.
The Hub does still work on Vegas Pro 20. Ideas anyone?

The same problem here...

The following procedure works for me:
Go to "C:\Users\*****\AppData\Roaming\VEGAS"
Rename the folder "HubDB" to "HubDB.old".
Start Vegas and the folder is recreated. Logging in to the hub should now work.

Hi there, I just updated my vp21 to build 300 but still no luck with the Sony FX30 HEVC footages

The clips from my DJI Mini 3 Pro which are HEVC 10bit Dlog-M work fine with the mxcompoundplug.dll, but those clips from the FX30 XAVC-HS 10bit 422, the Vegas Pro using so4compoundplug.dll for decoding and run extremely slow, can anyone solve my problem?

Thank you.

Is hardware decoder set to Intel QSV? That may help with this footage as only Intel GPUs can decode 422 HEVC. Performance of other footage may be worse though with Intel selected.

I tried openCL and CUDA with my RTX3060 but not yet with the QSV, coz I found the release note stated the performance for HEVC on those Geforce and AMD graphic cards could be better this time, and my CPU is 10th gen i7 which not yet supported the hardware decode on HEVC 10bit 422 with QSV.

Last year I switched to Davinci Resolve and found that it can run 4K HEVC very smooth on my PC laptop, with the same footage at the last post it utilized about 50% GPU power, giving out a editable preview frame rate, and also works much better on the Apple Silicon Mac Studio. I still miss the edit logic of Vegas Pro but the performance is really disappointed.

Seems like Vegas is always going to have issues, Ive just accepted it and Ive been here from v8 Pro. I upgrade for instance from 20 to 21 and try it out and just as the last update for 20 comes out and its somewhat stable, the 21 new version falls over like a baby learning to walk only maturing halfway through its year lifecycle.

I had a project for 20 and it was crashing every 3 edits (even splitting my timeline into 3 separate slices to work on) so I updated 21 to b300, made sure Windows was up to speed as was my nVidia drivers.

Im about to plunge into an edit process and see how it goes but my first test edit was on an YouTube ripped MP4 at 1080p25fps - random green frames appeared as I was working on it. Not exactly a taxing file format and something Ive done for years and years.

The talk of people pulling their hair out and saying thats it Im away to Resolve is completely understandable. Ive felt the same for years and year but I know Vegas and when it works it works well, its like staying with abusive partner because its what you know and there is "something" that keeps you there.

Apple stopped adding features to IOS one year to fix the bugs and rewrite stuff - I wish the Vegas team would do this. Adding Ai this and that doesnt bother me and I use 0% of the stuff thats lumped in, titlers, FX yada yada - Id just love to pay for a product that worked as described.

I opened up my Vegas 21 pro and it is now on build 300 but a software upgrade notice comes up saying to upgrade to 2.2.0.0. I hit upgrade and nothing happens and I can't find anything online pertaining to this version.

@GaryAshorn

You may be referring to version "21.2.0.0" of the Deep Learning Models...these are the models used for the AI related features in VEGAS. You will want to install these if you wish to use these features in build 300. As for nothing happening when you hit upgrade, that is odd. You may need to contact support to help with that.

Thank you and wondered if it was only for the learning modules. Not sure what is installed for those. I will ask support for the reason I see nothing for the upgrade. thanks.

AI Upscale is not working properly. Reverted to 208.

I can't login to vegas hub. It just gives me a blank screen and no way to log in. Please help!!!!

@timothy-burris, I was able to login with VP20, I guess I did it at the right time. VP21 is a different story at the moment. I get a "Checking login state...." and that's it. I'll try back in an hour or so.

Yea! Logged in VP21 HUB! It took longer than usual.
