Frame skipping in vegas? Fix?

h0nesttt · December 2010

When im watching the preview in sony vegas it s**** alot of frames at a time, which makes it not run smoothly... its really hard to work with because i dont know if anything looks good til the finished project. Also it only happens when i put Magic bullet colors in the clip, it works completely fine until then (ive tryed downloading new MBL many times, thats not the problem)

Theres probably a million things that could be wrong, but i think it may have to do with RAM or my graphic card?

I currently have 1022 MB of RAM, so any ideas how to fix it or what i need?

lolololol
Above the preview, what does it say? If it says "Best (full)" that's why it's laggy. Switch it to a lower setting by clicking on it.

if your computer hardware isn't that good, this is a common problem. the best suggestion i can give you is to make the preview ''draft'' which puts less stress on your hardware.

Well you never mentioned that you tried that, and when you say that, it seems like a basic situation that you could fix with a simple solution. So I found it kind of funny hwo you were mentioning you RAM an graphics card.

But since that's not the solution, I honestly don't know how to resolve this. Just render like 7 seconds of the video to see if it's a preview problem or an actual bug in the clip.

Hmm, seriously all I can suggest in uninstall then reinstall. But gj on that video though

Currently i am working on a large project and due to the amount of editing in some of the clips, even with the lowest preview settings it starts to skip a frame. This is with adding magic bullet/ overlay/regular effects/newblue/ and sometimes 2 clips on top of eachother.

I have 4 gb of ram, a quad core processor, and I record fraps with 100 fps full screen

I suggest rendering bits of the whole project and testing your errors like that.

How about disabling colours plugin and try to work? If you don't got a super computer obviously your vegas is going to be slower if you got plenty of plugins.

tweeday has a super computer and he doesn't lag when adding colours.

Which mean you don't have a super computer.

Just highlight the section you want to preview and press shift+B. It "pre-renders" that section for you and thus it isn't laggy.

clar1tyHTML · December 2010

Yea, do what R00N said select the bit of your project you want to see highlight it and go to tools > build dynamic ram preview (shift+B) and it will play through and render the frames quickly then play it back and it wont lag

Open the event's video FX and disable your colours for a while, when you are going to render enable them.
