VP11-Main Concept m2t cause WD TV Live to freeze

Well, this is a weird one !
All of a sudden the Main Concept - m2t Template I've been using to render several videos in VP11 is causing my WD TV Live to freeze !

All the adjacent videos play fine...they are all m2t as well...

Have started from the default VP11 m2t template, but, I just keep freezing the WD TV Live. The same video freezes it again and again.

Any links to understanding the various settings within the Main Concept m2t rendering dialogue ?

Post the media properties from a file that does work and one that doesn't work, using MediaInfo.
Also the firmware version on your WDTV Live. Maybe that will help track down the problem.

I have the WDTV Live and Vegas Pro 8. Like you, I've never had a problem with .m2t with the older version.

musicvid.....interesting.....I imported both into VP11 - the m2t video that was working and the one that was not.
VP11 completely froze during the "Building Peaks" process at 99% with the vid that was not working. I had to force quit the app using task manager.

Right clicking "properties" on each m2t looks identical :
29.970 fps video

O.K....I figured it out.

The problem was my TC Electronic Powercore plug-ins...De-Thump and De-Noise...were used on the source audio and this caused some sort of esoteric error.

Strangely, Windows Media Player played the rendered video just fine, but, WD TV Live completely locked up...and needed to be unplugged ! and re-booted.

Glad you got it figured out.
Sometimes asking the right questions does not give the expected answers, but does lead one to the correct ones.
