Hi there.

I have recently bought the Vegas Pro 23 Suite and was very disappointed with the lacklustre performance of the software. Especially the lagginess of the preview window and just doing simple tasks such as cutting and moving clips. It cannot be the type of CODEC my footage is running because I am using 1080p footage, MPEG-4 with a H.264 format. For some reason when I add a crop effect to any clip it absolutely destroys Vegas Pro and crashes.

The PC running VEGAS Pro:

AMD Ryzen 7 5700x3d - 8c, 16thread

32GB DDR4 3600Mhz Memory

All ran off a Cruical NVME drive

RTX 4070 GPU running the non-gaming version of graphics drivers.

Please help me as I do not have this issue with Premiere Pro, but I couldn't justify the annual or monthly cost!
