I don't know why, but everytime I insert a fx (like cookie cut, invert, etc) the fx only has effect on half of the clip; its very hard to explain. I try a different clip and still has that same effect , then a try the same clip and a different clip on a new track but I still have the same problem. The fx only has effect on half the screen. Any help will be appreciated

So if I understand you correctly, you're saying that in the preview window, only half of the image shows the effect?

Hmm, never heard of that before. Are you sure it's not just the preview window messing up? Try rendering out a portion and seeing if the effect is actually applied to the whole screen, despite what the preview window looks like.

How are your clips encoded?

yea when i rendered the video it was full effect. Is there a way I can fix this problem on the preview?

take a screencap and post it here?

and what is the file type of your clips?

(container/codec?)

Its .avi, most of them were rvmb(real player) files that I converted to .avi with WinAVIConverter 7.7,

The fx was working yesterday and only added 1 extra clip.

lol i meant to just take a "picture" but that works too..

right click on it and select properties, hit the summery tab and tell me what it says next to compression,

you might have to convert them to lagarith and see if that works...

Divx 6.5.1 Codec for all my clips.

O:
yea you might want to reconvert them all over to lagarith O.o it will take some HD space though...

@_@

and i see how much work you have done on it...

though if you take the file and convert the whole thing to lagarith (if you have enough hd space) delete the old file and rename the new file to the exact same name as the old file then vegas will automatically change over to the new file

so in essence you would only be swaping out files
