VP23 356: Flicker Control STILL freezes

anthony-chiappette wrote on 12/17/2025, 10:03 PM

One of the items listed in the Build 356 updates list states that the Flicker Control issue has been fixed. It is not fixed. I'm still getting the same behavior with the program freezing with audio continuing to play.

Same here. Video preview plays for a few seconds then freezes, while audio continues. Different to before where it froze immediately.

I can not say I've experienced this myself.

Here is a screenshot of my settings, which are totally random. I have no flicker issues until using this setting. It is on a UHD4K clip and playback is Best>Half. The clip is 23 seconds long. I do have the "old" way Vegas uses the spacebar and Enter key for timeline playback/pause.

If you are having this issue, you have to provide more information. Settings, and clip.

I am experiencing the same issue with flicker control on this new build. Preview freezes and once I hit pause/stop the program hangs until I force it to close. Happening when I use other FX as well but flicker control is a total guarantee.

@thesammy58 your user profile is blank. How about adding your computer specs to your Signature like everyone else? if this problem is going to be solved, more information, like computer specs and GPU driver number are needed.

So far, with my all AMD computer, it is working without any issues.

I’ve already provided them in other threads for this same issue and to support multiple times over 2 weeks ago. Thanks for the kind suggestion.

There is a lot of information in the forum. To remember everyone's specific computer builds is not something in my "wheelhouse" so to speak.

Thanks for adding them!

The difference between your computer and mine is the GPU. I use AMD, you have Nvidia. So does @anthony-chiappette, but a new gen Nvidia.

There is a user that said he managed to "fix" the flicker issue and cursor issue with Nvidia driver reinstall.
