Very strange audio problem!

The problem is still there... 6 months later :D I just give up on that

Vegas 21-108. The problem still exists.

The problem still exists in Vegas 21, all versions of Vegas 20, Vegas 19 build 636 and above. I was telling my customers to use Vegas 19 build 550 but then we had the expired certificate shut down debacle and now they can't. They really need to fix this for 19, 20 and 21. My customers can't use Vegas 18 due to the file locking issue, so this is four generations of show stopping bugs for our work flow.


Vegas 21 audio glitch in the last few frames of imported videos.

This is TikTok file in VP21. When you see black, that means I placed Vegas in background, opened a video, then went back to Vegas. I am not sure if opening a video file is required, but it's what I did in this test, maybe it's just taking focus off Vegas that does it.

In this example each time Vegas is brought back into focus the distortion changes, and mostly the distortion moves frames, getting closer to the beginning

Regression Test

This flavor of this issue appears to be fixed in Vegas Pro 21-187.

Good to know. But I will not give Magix another dime unless they fix this bug for 20 and prior. Inexcusable.

I get the audio noise at the start of files - nearly all of them! I've really reached the end of my tether with this programme. Disgraceful that they keep bringing out updated versions, but they still have the same problem!

Well, well - guess what? I've just carried out precisely the same procedure with the same video clips, using Vegas Movie Studio 12 Platinum = precisely the same result!

It seems to occur when one changes the size and/or shape of the pixels compared to the original video.

Please get this problem fixed, Magix!!!

@Colin-Anderton Could you share exactly what the issue is? The one in this thread is about a glitch at the end of files, which was fixed earlier in VP 21. Can you please share a sample file (Google Drive, etc.) and what you need to do to trigger a glitch? If it's been around for 10 years, despite there being two generations of decoders since Movie Studio 12, it isn't going to get fixed without more details and other users being able to replicate it.

I'd suggest starting a new thread on your topic so it doesn't get lost. Feel free to tag me as I'll happily test your file.

Hi RogerS. My problem has always been a noise glitch at the beginning of a file.

In the past few minutes I've run the original files through XMedia Recode, using several different settings. It seems to me that the problem arises in Vegas Pro when one changes the pixel shape.

I've been attempting to put my "archive" in order (a job that will take the rest of the summer, at least), and I've been rendering out the files, so they all end up either PAL (720x576) or NTSC (720x480). I only get the glitch when I try to change the pixel shape in Vegas Pro or Movie Studio. I never realised until today that Movie Studio exhibited the same problem.

So I put the test files through XMedia Recode - doing all the necessary changes there - and when I then put the files in Vegas Pro they render perfectly.

I hope this information is helpful to those who are working on this problem.

I don't think this is a general issue- just changing the pixel resolution in project properties doesn't introduce audio glitches. The question is what does as I don't doubt what you have found.

Is it inherent to the type of media you are using? Can you share a short sample of it? If it's DVD resolution and archive it suggests to me this may be an older format still using decoders from a decade ago hence the lack of progress from VP 12 to present (so not AVC, HEVC, etc.)

Please share MediaInfo if you can't make any source media available- here is how to do that:
