Vegas Pro 17.0 - Tips for sharper rendering? (MP4)

Hi all, this is just a "simple" question for rendering options or tips related to the following image...

I am merging multiple small animations into one, nothing tricky or hard to do... but Im having a bad time to accomplish getting the sharper output I want...

The original archives were MP4 files uncompressed, Im trying to render them the closest possible to the original source with not much success (The idea is to output the maximun quality, then later process the video again on other format such H 264 or similar (I already have a good program that gives me good results)

The problem is ussually I either over with a noticeable quality loss... even trying uncompressed solutions related to MP4... as you can see the videos are wireframe and the objective is to keep the lines the sharper possible.

The resolution of the project is 1280x960 - The original pieces rendered are around 1.320.000 Kbps, 30 frames per second... My best MP4 uncompressed was around 800k Kbps... I feel like Im unable to increase it... tried some things but the rendering tends to get aborted if I try to increase it tweeking values... (ussually is says something like the format does not admit such filesize)

Below a frame of the native video.

Whenever I close vegas the video fx keyframes on my project becomes slower

When I close vegas my effect transitions become slower for some reason, here's an example

Before closing Vegas: https://ibb.co/DGpT7Ct (effect lasts for 00:00:10 seconds, which is what was intended)

After closing Vegas and re-opening it https://ibb.co/SN8ZqjN (effect lasts for 00:00:20 now even though I didn't increase it myself)

I have had this problem for a long time and have no idea why it occurs, can anyone help me out? It's ultra frustrating when Vegas crashes too because when it does and I open the project again all my transitions become slower in the same way shown in the example. I have the pirated version of Vegas 21, I have an NVIDA GeForce GTX 1650 Ti and Windows 11; I have searched the internet for this issue and found no answer.

Vegas Pro 15 crashes every time I clicked on the ‘Render As’ button.

The problem is on the title.

I gotten myself a new PC and this has never happened to me before on my old one. If it matters, my old PC running on windows 10 and the new one is 11. I have uninstalled/reinstalled numerous times and this problem persist. But when I used it on my old PC, this problem is non-existent and I don’t know why this is so.

Does anyone else have this issue?

Edit: Old PC graphic card is GTX 1070ti. New PC graphic card is RTX 4070Ti Super.

Video isn't what Estimated FIle Size is... (Instead of 100 GB it's 5 GB)

Hello!

Does anyone know why this is a thing?

I mean, I am not complaining, it's not going to kill my upload speed.

I am using Vegas Pro 21.0 and I set it to 4K to a video that is 1 hour long with lots of edits here and there.

Estimated file size says "106 GB"...

It took me almost 6 to 7 hours to render it, now I check the folder expecting a heavy file... But it's just a 5 GB file.

Is this okay?

Is this fine?

iCloud videos have a slowed sound

What the titles says.

I am trying to make a video about my vacation.
Have alot of GoPro footage and also alot of videos stored on my iCloud. Videos are from an iPhone 15 Pro.

When trying to import the videos i downloaded from iCloud to Vegas Pro the sounds from the videos are extremely slowed down. Almost as if it's in slow motion.

Tried looking online for a fix but i can't find anything..
Any help would be appreciated!

Good walkthrough of inbuilt Vegas Effects/Transitions?

Hi folks,
Forgive me if this is a beginner type of question, but I'm looking for video (or the right terms to search for) that shows all the different effects that are built into Vegas.

Guys like Boris do a great job of showing what can be done, and recently, I saw a video showing how the same effect could be done with default effects. I was left thinking, "Why should I pay for Boris, when I don't even know what's possible with the built in tools???"

Thanks for your inputs.

TT.

Can't import specific MP4 files

I use a pirated 13.0 version of Movie Studio Platinum, Itried to import some MP4 files but it says that "The file could not be opened."

For the record, said MP4 files were downloaded from Twitter using FX and VX on Discord and they always worked until today and when I select them it says "File Type: Unknown."

Someone said that I should use VLC but it didn't work, unless I did something wrong.

OBS footage keeps crashing Vegas

OBS footage which I record myself causes serious problems with Vegas. Weirdly enough, OBS footage from my old (weaker) computer causes no problems, nor does any other video footage. At first it was hard stutter in video previews, both in the trimmer and whenever I would let my footage play out. Rendered videos were still smooth, but cutting was annoying. While I was able to reduce stutter by tuning the FPS in OBS down from 60 to 30 and after changing the format from MP4 to MKV (which then remuxes the files into MP4), it never went away fully.

Now, what's even more annoying is that the new OBS footage causes a huge amount of Vegas crashes. Sometimes there's like a 50 percent chance that Vegas will crash within the first minute after I insert something from OBS.

I'm working with the Steam version of VegasPro18 on Windows 10, with 16GB RAM, processor AMD Ryzen 5 5500 3.60 GHz, and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060. My OBS settings are attuned to the recommendations of https://www.vegascreativesoftware.info, which are pretty much the basic settings.

Issues logging into VEGAS HUB

  • What version of VEGAS Pro are you using?
  • 21
  • What version of Windows are you using?
  • 10
  • What exact graphics card do you have in your PC?
  • 1660 Super
  • Is it a pirated copy of VEGAS? It's okay if it is just abide by the rules and you won't get permanently banned
  • Purchased copy
  • Have you searched the subreddit using keywords for this issue yet?
  • Yes
  • Have you Googled this issue yet?
  • Yes

Every time I click on Vegas Hub to login it doesn't load and just shows a blank pop up window or will say "login service unavailable". My Wi-Fi is working correctly and I have got a legal copy, will open a ticket with Vegas shortly but was wondering if there's any fixes.

(Issue) Vegas Pro 21 freezes for a few seconds every time when opening

Hey all, recently upgraded to Vegas Pro 21. I was prompted to do an update after the installation, the first one went fine, and then I was prompted for another one (deep learning update). After that installed the issue began.

Basically every time I exit the Vegas Pro window, when I come back to it, it freezes for several seconds. Works fine afterwards, but that happens almost every single time I exit that window, which is a huge annoyance. Unfortunately I can't revert now since I have a project in the works.

Did anyone else experience this issue and is anyone aware of a solution?

Edit: a temporary workaround is having the preview play when I need to minimize the Vegas Pro screen. Then it comes back on immediately without problems

(ISSUE) Irreversible automatic inverted color for this specific image

It's been a year since I haven't used Vegas Pro and just got a new PC to play on. Recently, I have encountered a problem involving adding images. It's something I can't describe well, but to put it simply; Vegas Pro inverts a specific image's colors without the user's intent or supposed change. This only happens to this specific image of mine and no other else. I have tried resolving this issue by switching versions from VP 13, to VP 12, and to VP 16 but to no exact answer. I browsed on every reddit post, YouTube videos, some old forum from 2016, and find no solution. I even tried using the built-in invert plug-in and converting file types but those did not seem to work. Now, I am editing this post while holding my temper as I have a project going on that is commissioned by my friend and he promised he would give me 500$ if I finished this in under a week. Am I losing my mind or is this something in the program's system?

To note: This link will redirect you to the aforementioned "specific image" I have said. For reference, these are the screenshots in the Vegas Pro software from 13, and 16; VP13, VP16. BTW, the “specific image” was edited on PaintDotNet.

Apparently, the preview of the image/video/timeline doesn't affect the final result of the image. But still, there are no any profound solutions to fix the inverted preview. That leaves the question: How?

QnA

1: 12, 13, and 16.

2: Radeon Vega 8 (iGPU)

3: Windows 10.

4: All of the versions are pirated.

5: Yes.

6: Obviously.

What computer specs do I need to never again have the need to create VIDEO PROXYS?

I am using Vegas Movie Studio 17 on a lenovo, Windows 11, AMD Radeon graphics card, 16gb RAM laptop. Many videos I put into the timeline are about 1 gig in size and are 4k 60fps. I ALWAYS have to first create a video proxy before I can even start to edit and then I have to set the preview window to Draft (Quarter). It will take a 3 minute 1 gig video about 10-15 mins to create the proxy. This is relatively not a long time but when you're inspired, YOU WANT TO EDIT NOW!!. So, obviously if I am able to spend $2,000 on a computer, that would likely solve all my problems but I don't have the budget. Maybe I'd do 700? But what is the biggest factor (ram vs graphics card vs whatever else) that determines whether or not you can edit right away without having to make the video look like shit in the editor and go through all these bottlenecks. Thank you for any and all responses.

Vegas not understanding captions?

I have a layer for subtitles. Using only the subtitles preset from titles & text. Vegas is refusing to read it as anything other than normal text. Instead of embedding it into the video it just bakes it in visible at all times.

Trying to workaround by going to tools > Scripting > Export Closed Captions for youtube. It also does nothing. It asks me where I want to save the file and then does nothing, not even a blank file.

Where did I go so wrong? Why is vegas refusing to make a captions track here? I watched multiple guides and they all did it the way I did, it worked for them.

Issue Burning Bluray

Hello Everyone,

I'm using an up to date version of VegasPro 21 on Windows 11. It's not pirated, and I have an NVIDIA G force MX 570 A Graphics card. My software is not pirated.

I have been burning some of my projects to disc and recently hit a wall with a new file.

Every time I try to burn the disc (Using the "Burn" option under tools, and selecting "Render Image and Burn") it will render the image for a while, then eventually hit a point where it says "There was a problem creating the image file."

The only thing can think of is that my file is too long, even though there's enough space on the disc. I know it shouldn't matter, but it seems like this only ever happens when I try to burn something longer than around 2 hrs and 15 minutes, as I've had this issue before. It works fine for short files, which is frustrating, because it makes testing for errors very time consuming.

I have Googled and searched in the sub with no luck. If more detail is needed, let me know and I can start a new burn, then post the screenshot.

Does anyone have a good fix or know of a free to cheap alternate burning software? I've tried playing around with a few different ones and haven't had any luck.

Thank you for your help!

Speech to text not working

So I’m having an issue, if the clip is too long it’ll process 0.0 for a while and nothing happens and if the clip is short it’ll instantly go thru it all and have the analyze button again.

Any solutions to this?

Blue error screen

Help please, I have vegas pro 20 and I’m on windows 10. I have used the program absolutely fine and then around a week ago I randomly started getting the blue error screen and my system restarts I tried everything to fix it. I even factory reset my pc (which I didn’t mind doing as I only had a few files on there that I back up) which took hours. And even after that it’s still happening
