I work with Sony Vegas 9; and does anyone else have this problem?

I work and work on a video; and all of a sudden it freezes and won’t come back; or I get a ‘error occurred’ I click okay; and sometimes it closes my window; meaning I lost whatever I just added to my video.

Also; sometimes when I hit save; it won’t; I click on it later on; and it says ‘it didn’t save’; it’s getting to be an annoyance because I hate working on a video thinking at any minute whatever I just did wont get saved. I save every so often; but sometimes I just don’t; and so I lose it.

I am only upset because I just paid 170 dollars for more Ram and them to install it because It was told 2 gigabytes of ram won’t cut it for Sony Vegas. It’s doing the same crap it pulled with only two gigabytes.

I am uncertain of a lot of things. Like; is it normal; does it happen to other people; is it just a glitch with Sony Vegas 9; should I be worried; and is it my computer. Lots of questions running through my head.

Thank you.

Does it also render halfway through and then say "an error has occurred"?

If it does, then i had the exact same problem a few months ago. I truly have no idea why that started happening to me and i'm sorry to say i really don't know why it just suddenly stopped doing that recently.

Some things I did was render my vid in small sections, and then dragged the rendered parts onto the timeline and instead of having all those small clips i had a few big sections of my already rendered vid there instead. But even that didn't always work, so I re-installed my version of Vegas, and i think that helped a lot. Also just leaving Vegas alone for a few days seemed to work too. idk why but it helped. lol

I'm sorry I don't have one straight forward answer for you. Just keep working at it, and Vegas should stop doing what its doing.

I think I had a problem with that one time.

I am going to re-install mine. That's a great idea; thank you.

I'll just save my vids that I have been working on to my external hard drive.

Thank you. I did it; and not only that; but my zoom was restored; I should have that of that in the first place. I am so excited now! Thanks!

I've had this problem too, but it hasn't done it in a while *fingers crossed* I do what Morgan does, render small sections so then I have all the parts if the original Vegas file decides to screw up.

I am glad hearing that it happens to otheres; is sadly a relief; it's just a glitch in the programming; which sucks for us.

But I have had some computer issues in the past; and I would rather the programing be off; and not my computer.

I'll have to consider rendering it in small sections.

I kinda wish I got Sony Vegas 8; but they didn't have that one; only 9. Because I used both trials; to see which one I liked before I bought one.

My pet peeve is how it always freezes and wont come back. I get upset; I do. I hate when I work on something and it happens.


Thank you guys.
