I Have Vegas Movie Studio 15, And When I Try To Put A Clip Into The Timeline, The Software Crashes. Same Goes For When I Try To Put In Mp4's, But Images And Text Work Fine. My Computer Has 12GB Of Ram, And Plenty Of Space. Anybody Know What's Wrong?

No it isn't.

You obviously haven't read C1 as suggested. Presumably English isn't your native language? What languages are you fluent in?

I tried nicks settings but it still crashed - any other recommended settings?

robertOZ wrote on 9/19/2019, 8:56 PM

It's possible that the issue is caused by the non standard frame rate of 48 fps, VMS may not be able to read that format, you could try converting your video to a different mp4 format using Format Factory or similar
