Do you know what video Fx are in use (esp. as the point where the render crashes)?

I shot a wedding with 3 cameras - Here are the cameras, profiles and media info about the video files.

Sony A7IV - slog3
3840 * 2160 - 23.98fps
Data rate - 229505kbps

GH4 - VLOG
3840 * 2160 - 24fps
95923kbps

GH5 - Natural
3840 * 2160 - 24fps
Data rate - 149129kbps

In Vegas Pro 22, I edited the trailer (about 5mins long). Even though I had imported all videos from all 3 cameras, I only used footages from the Sony A7SIV. Here, I used the colour grading panel, added LUTS with the LUT filter and also used the sharpening FX. Upon rendering the trailer, I had no single issue. It was actually very smooth.

I proceeded to edit the full video (about 2 hours long). This is made up of footages from all 3 cameras. I copied the grade and video fx from the trailer and pasted it in the full video project. I then did some adjustments in the grade and also used the colour match fx.

Here are some screenshots with the project settings, render settings, pc specs and fx used.

Why do you use the CGP and the LUT plugin? The CGP could use LUTs too. But that is only one question.

One idea would be, to substitute the CGP by a combination of the LUT plugin and the classical color corrector. The CGP makes some troubles - but I cannot be sure if that is the issue really. I assume that this will be fixed by the new video engine.

The mixture of the framerates is not so great. For the future, I would try to stick to one overall frame rate, used in all cameras.

But to find out what is the real issue, we would need the possibility to repro that. In other words, we would need to identify much more in detail where the project crashes during rendering. Specific footage? Specific effects? And so on.

If you have any long duration Adjustment Event in your project, temporarily remove them and see if the render completes..... Also from your crash report, an issue seems to be originating from a particular OFX Plugin you have installed

I combined both the CGP and LUT plugin because I don't have the possibility to add 2 luts in the CGP.

Ok I will give this a shot however I didn't have any issue with this when I edited the trailer which was 5mins long.

Noted.

Initially, the project always crashed at 14% which was frame 23,095. This isn't the first frame of that cut so I found it strange that it still rendered a bit and crashed at a certain frame of the same video file cut and not the beginning of that video file cut.

After trying other things, it now crashes at 2%.

Both the frame at 2% and the frame at 14% are from the Sony cameras.

What I've noticed is that when I only select a portion of the exact frame where it crashes at, say about 20seconds, it renders fine without problem.

The entire video is 2hours.

If you see a crash at a specific frame number, as at 23095 or whatever number are at 2%, then the question is what comes after 23095. Is it at the beginning of a cut/another event/a change in framerate? The best what you can do is to explore that.

It could also be a complex counteraction - something that you have in the timeline interacting with specific settings, e.g in the project settings.

If the crash happens with specific clip, as you say Sony slog3 footage, you could check which clip that is - and render that with tools like the Shutterencoder to quite robust intermediates - for example ProRes. It could also be a damaged clip.

Or you try to take the clip where Vegas crashes, and test what happens if you put this clip in the timeline - and render it alone. Does it crash too? Add the effects, same project settings - it is a trial and error test.
