SONY VEGAS CRASHES (Here is the Workaround)

I've been using Sony Vegas 9.0 HD Studio for a few months now to edit my videos in 720p format. For the most part, it's been working great. But for more complex project involving editing a healthy portion of clips, I've run into nightmares during the Rendering process.

I found a workaround that is an alternative to the regular way of rendering videos. Instead of going through the project menu, I go to Tools, then "Render to New Track", which renders the video to a track in the workspace of the project.

The demonstration of this is in the video.

@HeroDanny @HeroDanny It is actually music from the Halo Wars game. Pretty good stuff, but by the nature of the game, I'm not surprised that the music has been largely forgotten.

I also saw that. it meant it rendered it to a new track (im not actually sure what that does) which it was not doing before but still cant burn it to a disc or turn it into anything watchable...?

@TommyHCH If you're rendering to a track on Sony Vegas instead of the final mix, the rendered track goes into a different folder than usual. Instead of the "Renders" folder, it goes into an alternate folder in the same subdirectory as "Renders". I think the name of it is "Rendered Tracks", but it's been a while since I've done this myself. Look for an additional folder next to the "Renders" folder and I think you should have the location of your file.

So if its my memory. Would deleting everything off my computer and putting all my other videos onto an external drive help? I presume i cant delete the orginal files until I've rendered the film right?

Thanks for your help!!

@TommyHCH It's very possible. If you're low on disc space, there might be memory issues being created. But also, your RAM might be taking a huge hit as well, trying to cope with that many different clips. So if you look in your task managers "CTRL-ALT-DEL" --> "TASK MANAGER" and see a bunch of processes you don't need, it might help to kill those processes before you render.

Please forgive me for my lack of response to this video regarding troubleshooting Vegas Crashes. Since this video, I've refocused my channel to music, so I haven't had to deal with any complex Sony Vegas issues lately.

One suggestion is to try this, something I found recently in a google search: "Please note that if you are getting crashes during rendering, you must go to Vegas’ Settings, click the video tab and lower the number of threads to “1″"

still didnt work

Shocking to see how many people experience the same problem. I am glad you addressed it, even if it may not work for many. I will try it too this evening with a project file that was costing me hours to create. BTW: I am working with Vegas 7!!!

Does anyone think prerendering would help?

@teknoaxe in Sony vegas HD studio where is the Vegas' Settings exactly? 

[HeroDanny]

@HeroDanny OMG It's Halo music lol, I think it's halo 2...? 

[HeroDanny]

What is that background song called????? It sounds SOOOOOO Familiar, please respond. it's bothering me that I don't know =X

[TommyHCH]

Well thanks for all your help. Looks like I will never fix this? Tried everything. I can 'render track@ but this is just a sound file no film comes out. Trying to burn to disc you are right now says low memory however i have nothing else open and performance wise computer reckons there is enough memory. There are 80 processes running on the computer I have tried closing these and i keep blanking screen. Restarting computer starts them all again. Will my computer just never be able to work this?
