Vegas 10 crashes when loading a VEG file

disordinary wrote on 10/20/2010, 1:57 AM

Hey Guys,

To trial Vegas 10 before buying the upgrade I decided to edit my latest project in it. The project is made up of 3 veg files, .veg 1 and 2 are both converted from Vegas 9 .veg 3 is a new file created in Vegas 10. Everything was going well untill I moved the files now Vegas gets about 60% through loading Veg 1 and Veg 3 before crashing.

Any ideas?

Thanks

I have had a similar problem, mainly when some of the project media is located on a shared drive of a networked computer. Restarting V10 seems to work, although I do have a render issue (separate post coming). My VEG files came from V8.0c

I'm having the same problem especially when I try to open a Vegas 10 .veg that I created on a different computer or I've moved the files to a different drive. The .veg is completely unuseable! Restarting Vegas 10 does absolutely nothing.

And sometimes I even have difficulty opening a .veg I created on the same computer and drive. In this instance, restarting Vegas sometimes works.

I guess I'm going back to 9 until this crap is fixed. :(

An odd thing... Vegas 10 has no problem opening any old Vegas 9 VEGs. Just do NOT save over those old VEGs without renaming them first.

Learned that lesson the hard way.

One was an upgrade vegas 9 file but one was a completely native vegas 10 file so its not the upgrade process. The only factor that I can think of is that I moved them from one computer to another, but another file which was moved between computers and upgraded was ok.

The other factor that the two corrupted files shared was that they had generated media, one being a solid colour background for a PNG, the other being a credit roll.

It was for a film competition due today - Luckily I had rendered out a low quality version for scoring so it was a matter of putting that on the timeline at 60% transparency and then going through all of the footage and cutting it back together frame perfect. Luckily it was only about 5 minutes worth of footage but its an horror short so lots of cuts. A big pain as I would have preferred to spend that time on the sound mix or a light colour correction. The main thing was the film was completed in time.

I'm still going to buy the Vegas 10 upgrade (at that price who wouldn't) but I might not use it in until the first update comes out.

This problem seems to have resolved itself after I received my program disc from Sony and entered my registration code on both computers.

I've had this problem too, but with projects created from scratch in Vegas 10. I'm not 100% positive, but I think that if Vegas crashes (which is very likely with the 64 bit one) then the veg file gets corrupted for some reason. However it didn't crash when I opened the autosaved veg file.

But this is a new bug with V10, it didn't happen to me before.

Can't believe that this bug has made it into a released product. I've had to re-create a whole project that I had on a machine that I just replaced. I couldn't export or import the veg file successfully, it all had to be done manually. I just tried copying all my files to another hard drive and then pointing Vegas 10 to that directory, it failed miserably! Essentially this makes Vegas 10 unusable. I think we should get a refund until they fix it. I don't know how much more of this crashing and buggy performance I can take. Do the developers read these forums? Or do we have to submit it to them. Does anyone know how to get a discount on CS5?
