This issue has been around since 22 and still exists in 23. When I use the Pan/Crop and Mask, the mask position does not match what's shown in the preview window. How can this problem be solved? Could this be an issue with Sony's encoding that can't be fixed?
The demo footage was shot with a Sony camera, and this issue occurs with some of the files.
Honestly, the stability of updates over the past couple of years has been really poor— even the most basic functions are bugged.
In version 23, there's also an issue with videos containing an Alpha Channel — they show abnormal exposure problems. What's worse, even footage downloaded directly from VEGAS Hub's Stock Media has the same problem.
