Where can i get a legal copy of Sony Vegas Pro 11?

I really wanna get Sony Vegas Pro 11 or something similar to that (as long as it's not MADLY overpriced) but every listing I see is digital. I have a laptop and.. SPOILER ALERT! Laptops don't have dvd roms. Is there a digital listing I could by off, say, Ebay or something that's not $10000000000000000 dollars every milisecond it has to get delivered?

Fps problem

Hey guys. My Vegas Pro has a lot of frame drops, when I have text animations. I'm not sure if it's a GPU thing or CPU thing. I have a 4060 RTX and Ryzen 5 8500G. Please tell me there's a solution to this.

My Vegas Pro Preview Monitor, turns the Quality/Resolution down, by itself

When using a second monitor, to preview my project (Legit, NVIDIA card, Windows 11, I7, 16gb, SSD, Vegas 22), The preview, drops to 960x540. I change it back.... and, soon as I click on the timeline, it goes back to 960x540. It's driving me nuts. I can't read the txt on the screen. I put it to GOOD FULL, and it goes back to PREVIEW HALF, in a few seconds.

How to create this type of moving background?

I was wondering how to create this type of moving background in Vegas? For what I can tell, is just an single object with alpha channel looping indefinitly?

I saw one dude doing it with the S_BlurMoCurves but there is another way to do it?

Composite Mode stuck on Alpha Source

I'm trying to add black bars on Vegas Pro 21 by applying Multiply Mask on a white Solid Color track, but for some reason, whenever I select 'Multiply Mask' it stays on Alpha Source. It doesn't let me choose any other setting in Composite Mode either.

Is there something I need to de-select in order to unlock it?

Looking for animated border effect name/method

I'm trying to figure out an effect where I have an animated border on an entire photo (so if it was a png it would follow the exact shape with the animated border), not looking to mask, just like a drag on type of effect if that makes sense. Anyone know what this is called/how I can do it? I have no plugins and never used plugins before, and I'm willing to pay if its reasonable and has other useful plugins

Is there anyway to get old versions of Vegas for cheaper?

Was using a trial for Sony Vegas 9 and then switched to Vegas 13 because 9 kept crashing and it was essentially the same thing but now there’s the watermark saying “made with Sony Vegas 13” I’m not really trying to pay 500 bucks for a 11 year old software ykwim and I’m to worried about viruses to pirate it.

what did I do to my video track?

Hi! I’ve been a pretty basic on/off user of Vegas for over a decade, but there’s still a lot I don’t know about it. I was moving video clips around and it somehow expanded the video track. (It also added that thin red bar at the start of the video track). Now, I know I can right-click on the track and uncheck Expand Track Layers, but I don’t think that really undoes what I did. I’m really not sure what happened here, but it’s not something I can hit undo for. Any tips that can shed some light on this would be greatly appreciated- thank you in advance!

Vegas 19: Is there a sensible way to make blinking text?

I was trying to make a video that has some blinking text at the top and could not find any way to do this within Vegas 19. Wound up having to copy and paste a half-second text event and align it on the timeline over and over again. I found some outdated video (UGH!) tutorials when I searched, but they were often old enough to be calling it "Sony Vegas."

Vegas pro 18 not working with h.264 codec?

Everytime I try to import a h.264 codec video I get a black circular sign, preventing me from using it. How do I fix this? Am I missing a certain system program? I've tried downloading numerous youtube videos from numerous sites and still nothing. Thanks.

Is this humble bundle worth it compared to davinci resolve free version or even premiere?

I dont own premiere anymore i dont want to pay subscription but I was so used to using it. It's $30 up til tonight and I want to officially own a reliable editor without going the yarr harr way. I have a rtx 4090 graphics card well i just built my computer last year so I dont think there should be any issues with anything I get.

Only thing I dont like about premiere is that it's limited with the effects. I like the way you can put keyframes to make simple animations on it... but have to go to after effects for the more advanced stuff like puppet warp. Still I seldom would use that because Id only have the yarrrrrrrrrrrr version before and it won't let me use it anymore lol

i used to own the legit sony vegas way back in 2006-2007 and it was my first video editing software other than windows movie maker when I was a kid xD

I’ve had it up to here with the audio

Every time I open Vegas and I’m sharing my screen no one can here the audio unless I reshare my screen on discord and my audio to the discord call goes away when I stream live on YouTube or twitch using obs and open Vegas my audio goes away unless I close and open obs which I can’t do unless I want to end stream everytime I open Vegas for anything my audio either goes away and I have to go and reset it going to my headphones on discord and just right clicking on my headphones and then clicking my audio again how can I fix this? I’ve been having this problem for as long as I’d have Vegas and not one of my friends faces the same issue and im just about tired of it because my friend went afk and I opened up Vegas to get some light editing done and when he came back I forgot to reset my audio and he thought I went afk and we sat there for an hour not talking until he called my phone and asked me where I went… who else is having this issue and how can I fix it??

Lost video rendering codec options since I updated graphics drivers.

I have an Arc A750 I've had since last year. Since I bought it I've been able to use Intel Quick Sync Video encoder on both Bandicam and Vegas Pro 22 (Not Pirated). Since I updated my drivers and Intel Graphic Software I've lost those options in Bandicam and Vegas and can't get them back, is there any way to either roll back the drivers and get arc control back or regain access to Quick Sync Video encoder I had before?

Crash if I open another window

I have the Venez Pro 22 with a powerful 32g PC + good graphics

Editing is going smoothly but I don't know why if I open any window, no matter how small, it gets stuck.

I have looked at the power settings and dynamic ram and it is not the problem...

Does it happen to anyone else?

I can be editing but if I open, for example, a Google Chrome window, my Vegas Pro 22 stops working! :(

All video clips I add in Vegas are under a second long

Hi, I don't normally post here but I have a problem with Vegas Pro 17.

Recently all the video clips I add are less than a second long, no matter how long the video file actually is. If I drag the clip longer in the timeline, the audio continues normally, but the video does not. I have already reset the program to the default settings, but this has not helped. Does anyone have any tips?

Thank you in advance!

Vegas Pro 21 is much more stable than 20

I'm actually really surprised at how well it's running. I edit a lot of game captures from the Nvidia app. It used to crash every 10 minutes but now doesn't at all. Your mileage may vary but I recommend taking a chance if you got $30 to spare.
