Hey there,
I'm a decently tech-savvy teenager, but I'm no professional. I've done quite a bit of searching for a solution to this, but nothing has helped so far.
I recently installed Windows 8 on my computer. Everything worked fine, and there were no issues. I was able to record Minecraft videos just fine, and I could edit them without any problems.
A few weeks passed since I last touched Sony Vegas Pro 13, and someone asked for me to put together and edit a video for them that showcased their Minecraft build. So, I went to boot up the old Vegas Pro.
All of my game/screen recorders like FRAPS and Dxtory record in .avi file format. So when I went to open/import my video files, it crashed.
Here's how it happens:
1: I Open Sony Vegas Pro 13
2: Click on Import, or right click and then select Open, or anything that opens file browser. Alternately, I can also right click the file and then select "Open with... Sony Vegas Pro 13"
3: As soon as I click, everything freezes. The name of the file doesn't show up in the "File Name:" text box.
4: After a few seconds, it will say that the program has stopped responding. If I click anywhere, it will say the same message, whether I click on the file browser or the Vegas Pro window.
I've tried waiting it out, I've tried re-installing Vegas, I've tried closing other programs. Nothing is working.
I can open .mp4 files, .mp3, and probably all other sorts of files. But not .avi, which is the only format that I can record in. Due to the fact that I'm trying to record video games, my file sizes can get really big, and my processor isn't fast enough to convert them to other file types in a reasonable amount of time. (3.2 GHz, 2 cores. I don't overclock it.)
I've also been able to view the .avi files in Adobe After Effects and Windows Media Player, so I really don't know what the issue might be.
Specs:
Intel Pentium G3258 3.2GHz Dual-Core Processor
MSI Z87-G41 PC Mate ATX LGA1150 Motherboard
Corsair Vengeance 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
EVGA GeForce GTX 750 Ti 2GB Superclocked Video Card
64-bit Windows 8
I've been using this computer on Windows 10 Technical Preview since November 2014, and I've been able to use Vegas Pro just fine the entire time. I recently upgraded my hard drive and switched to Windows 8 since Tech Preview expired. However, even after the switch I was able to edit videos and perform regular actions just fine.
Any and all help or insight is greatly appreciated. If you need any further information or details, don't hesitate to ask.
