Vegas 64-bit is coming

Post by NeoQuixotic » Tue Sep 09, 2008 8:30 pm

From a Sony e-mail newsletter:
Vegas Pro 8.0c update:

• Enhanced camera and device support
• New UI enhancements and workflow improvements

Vegas Pro 8.1 update:
Ready for 64-bit Vegas Pro? The advantages of running Vegas Pro 8.1 on a 64-bit PC with a 64-bit compatible operating system include increased computer memory and editing power, more files open on the timeline, more filters and effects, more cached frames, and faster rendering performance.

Stay tuned for information on the availability of both updates — FREE to registered users of Vegas Pro 8 soon!
I'm not really sure how much better it will actually be, but I'd be willing to reinstall my 64-bit Vista just to find out.

Yea, it's been in beta for a few months now. My boss has it. I couldn't give you any details on stability and whatnot, though. I never really inquired about it. =\
... yea ...

Ok, after trying Vegas 8.1 out for a while I determined that it isn't quite ready. I kept running into bugs and crashes. It was especially buggy for me when working on HD projects. Tried working with and encoding to many different formats and it just kept barfing. I'm now trying 8.0c on my 64-bit and seem to be fine. Darn, I was hoping it would work well :roll:.
