Masking Questions for Vegas

I've gotten those errors a couple times, and I can't really say there's any particular solution to it. What version of Vegas do you have? I know with some of the patches they released, it stabilizes masking quite a bit, I remember I would get runtime errors all the time if I ever Ctrl-Z'd while masking. Only real solution apart from that is to save really often whenever you're masking something.

(Most up to date version of Vegas is 7.0e, IIRC, but if you've got 6.0, I think they cleared up a lot of those issues with release 6.0c, check their site for the update patches)

Hope that helps,

It can't hurt to try, but those errors suggest (to me at least) that you either have a corrupted preview render or dammaged RAM - it's probably the former. As long as that preview render is in your project you'll continue to crash because something went wrong when it was created... Assuming i'm reading that error message correctly that is.

Thank you, you two. Well, once the program started shutting down without any errors (I was doing too much at once), that was when I started getting those errors. It's pretty much only when masking though... but I did notice I have to wait FOREVER when trying to view a segmented part of my clip from the trimmer. I can't view from the trimmer with the lagarith footage I have to drag it to the timeline and pick out the part I need. It was fine with my last AMV, although it was also different footage.

For some reason I think the trimmer part at least has to do with the sound in my clips. When putting them into VirtualDubMod I got an error saying that the VBR audio was "improper," but still could be used. *Scratches head*

My Media Library may have something to do with it: corrupted files or something. I should sort through it.

I'm very tired right now, so I think I will call it quits for the night. I will try getting those patches.

Again, thank you.

I just remove the audio from my clips when I run it throw DGIndex and VirtualDub and that whole process... Lower file size, And I never use it... so whatever.

But as for this other problem... I really have no idea XD

As for the second error, I don't know why it happens, but I get it all the time.

The best way to get rid of it (the way I found, I'm not sure if it works for everyone else). Is just restart you computer.

As someone else said, it has to do with your memory. So if you restart you computer then you can reset your memory and Vegas all in 1 swift slap of time wasting.

ouch, this forum not allow me to edit post...

VBR mp3 on AVI is non-standart, therefore Vdub give you warning. just use CBR MP3. or use .MP4 container and use AAC audio

Chroma keying?

what i mean is like using black as the alpha channel, so black = transparent.
