Ah, I'm not alone!

What are your system specs, OS etc, Wade? - and what other s/w and h/w do you have?

Interested to see if there is any commonality.

Are you using the auto save plug-in by Ed Troxel?

Wade, now that is interesting indeed.

All we NOW need to hear is that this is NOT being employed for the purposes in this thread's issues.

I do use Edward's AutoSave and have not had issues with render. And I 've been doing some heavy rendering in the last week. Needed to get some VirtDub out for clients including Magic Bullet video treatment. Heavy rendering . . . .

But I WILL keep a weather-eye open on this for "other" lock-ups though . . thanks for the tip.

Grazie

Just for the record... when a render starts, auto save turns itself off until the render is completed.

Wade - yep, I am. Your thoughts?

Grazie - if you are able (and this may be difficult as it ties the pc up) try leaving the 'render complete' dialogue up on screen for a while (no idea how long). See if that reproduces the issue. I will say that it is seemingly random when it does or does not occur so this may be a fool's errand. If you close the render complete dialogue relatively soon after it appears, the problem will NOT occur.

I stress, I don't think this is a problem with the render process itself - it seems to be a problem with what happens AFTER the render. As I mentioned earlier, it occurs (randomly) regardless of the content being rendered, plugins being used, length of render etc.

Edit: FYI I have also gone through Jeff's suggestions with no joy. I have also pulled the additional RAM. No luck.

REPRO-ED - Feck!!!!!!!

Ian, I hear you baby!

1] I am preparing some 4x3 into a 16x9 for a client to view. Nothing new there then.

2] Rendered out from Vegas; it's saying complete . . . groovy tunes . . . imported to DVDA5 for prep - Checked & looks great.

3] Ah, but hold that thought . . don't touch that dial!!! Switch back to Vegas P9 & I notice that Vegas thinks it should STILL be rendering - and at 100%???

HUNG! - And hung like a Bull Mastiff's dangly bits & swaying in a rank smelling breeze . . Hung like a 4 week old Grouse which was used by a trawler man to wipe down his herring slopped jersey . . . . Hung like a crooked Rothko . . .

And only way to kill it? CTRL+Alt+Delete and Process tree. Or, I'm thinking, a 12-bore?

This AINT heat, this aint memory this is something else.

So, off to SONY Ian! I know I am . . . .

"TAXI!"

If it ain't one thing . . . .

Grazie

Ha! One of the most colourful posts I have read in a while!

OK, so Wade and I aren't going mad. There IS something going awry. Well that's three of us - as you say, Sony time.

Grazie, are you active on the official Sony board (I'm not). Any chance you could drop a post there?

p.s. just wanted to add that I am using 8.0c and Grazie is using 9.

Sent report off to SCS. Give 'em something to chew over, I'd say.

Grazie

Grazie, put that down! (Grouse season doesn't start until August 12th.)

Ian, unless Grazie has a direct contact, I always use this page on the Sony site.

BTW, this isn't the first time Grazie has come out with such colourful language :-)

Intersting to note there is a thread at the Sony forum as well: Sony Creative Software - Forums - Vegas Pro - Video Messages

Ian, I was quite certain you were aware of just how to report? This from the SONY website you posted on back in May '08? " I'll open a trouble ticket and see where that leads. " Sony Creative Software - Forums - Vegas Pro - Video Messages

Grazie
