I am asking this out of curiosity to see what seems to be the normal/average amount of time before the game it crashes/freezes for people and what system was it forif it cashes/freezes for youfor me it was a day two ago freezing at some were between 1-25 minuets from when i load the gamesome may call that unplayable but i call it very annoying and an immersion killerbut that was being caused by mods(obviously my system is the pc)to add to it for some reason many the place i discovered in big mt(old wold blues) got undiscovered. And a few days ago i was playing honest hearts and the places i discovered disappeared from the map. Then deleted the all save files that i made after starting honest hearts(i was not that far).i deleted my data folder and replaced it with a clean one. Not at all actually, and this was about a couple days after launch.Same with Skyrim though there were some textures issues on launch for me.Fallout 3 i got a month after launch, worked fine too except for this one quest that i wasn't sure i couldn't figure out, or if it was just completely bugged.Soo yeah, awks.Ah i should mention, Fallout 3 and New vegas are on the PS3 for me.

Skyrim on the PC.I did have an odd loading screen that lasted 3 minutes once in New Vegas when i went into a shack and it happened again when i left that shack. Everywhere else was fine, it was just that Time distorting shack O.o. Depends on which version you're talking about.Initially, for some reason I still can't remember, I bought New Vegas for my PS3.

At one point that crashed every 20 minutes or so, bugs and glitches all over the place. Made me absolutely despise the game.But then I got it for the PC during a Steam sale, including all DLC up until that point, and I don't think it ever crashed there. Really fell in love with it as well also thanks to the excellent expansion packs. I so do love Old World Blues and the Fallout 1-ish tribal atmosphere of Honest Hearts.Fallout 3 had some hiccups but not that much worth mentioning.

For me, on PS3, it tends to freeze or become unplayably laggy an average of about 30 minutes after starting it up, although that can change if I'm playing through any of the DLC. Lag and freezing tends to be significantly more frequent in the outdoor areas of the Old World Blues and Lonesome Road DLCs (usually about 10 minutes of being outdoors does the trick), while Honest Hearts and Dead Money are actually downright stable. Certain areas of the vanilla game are also really bad offenders when it comes to performance, namely the Hidden Valley bunker, the Strip, and the Strip casinos.

So it's pretty much an unplayable mess for me, which is a real shame since it's also one of the best games ever made.

Q: Why does Vegas Pro and Vegas Movie Studio crash when I try to Import a Video? Answer: There is no easy way to answer this question and one particular sized shoe definitely will not fit everyone in regards to the solutions. The only way I can enlighten you about this error, is to ask some questions and give you some tips.

Hopefully you can then narrow down which element is the problem child. Have you installed the latest build version for Vegas?Magix is continually releasing new build version updates for Vegas Pro and Vegas Movie Studio. Each time a new build is released, it will contain many bug fixes and new features. Sometimes updating your software will fix annoying crashes.To find which build version you currently have installed, open Vegas and go to Help/About.You can download the latest build versions directly from Movie Studio Zen in the FAQ section here.Do you know which Video Codec/Format the Video is in?The number one cause of failure to import video is due to non-compatible video codecs with Vegas Pro or Movie Studio. Vegas Pro and Movie Studio do not support every video codec in the known Universe. The main reason is because many specialized video codecs have licensing fees attatched to them.

If Vegas supported every video codec, it would add greatly to the cost of the software. There are two solutions to this problem.#1 Convert your video into a Vegas friendly codec/format.#2 Record your original videos using a different codec/format.Click here for another article which explains more about which codecs/formats Vegas Pro and Movie Studio support.Try Re-booting your Computer first!If you have been doing a lot of editing over many hours, then it is often a good idea to SAVE and do a RE-BOOT of your computer before you attempt to Render a Video. This will clean out your memory and give you a clean slate.

Are you using a bought copy or pirated copy of Vegas?If you're using a pirated copy of ANY version of Sony Vegas, then go no further - you've probably just discovered why Vegas is not working properly.

Over the last 18 months, I have noticed that Sony Creative Software has become a lot more vigilent in updating all current versions of their programs. Vegas Pro 11 for example has already had four different free Build Versions released in the last four months at the time of writing this article. Are you running the latest Build versions of Vegas Pro or Movie Studio?Over the last 18 months, I have noticed that Sony Creative Software has become a lot more vigilent in updating all current versions of their programs. I recently had a problem where a couple of bigger files, in the 2GB and 11GB range would cause Vegas to freeze, i thought it stopped working but leaving it run about 5 minutes it actually did import.

I have a pretty fast system too.It seems to have fixed itself recently and I'm not sure what happened that fixed it, because i did uninstall the program and reinstalled it and that didn't seem to do anything, unless it was something else that changed or a program got uninstalled that was somehow causing this to happen. Anyway those files import pretty much instantly now.This is on Windows 10 by the way. Hi Derek, I was hoping maybe you could help me. I have Vegas Movie Studio 10 on my Windows 10 laptop. Vegas has been worked just fine in the past, though I have used it in a couple of months. Recently, I tried to start a project but the program won't let me import any media. At first I tried uploading mp4 files, then I tried previous video files I imported from previous projects, then I even tried images.

Every time I try to import media the program has 'unexpectedly crashed'. I was able to import the videos I need by dragging them into the program but now the problem is every time I click on the video, it crashes. I'm not sure what to try any more (I've already tried rebooting my computer) so any help would be greatly appreciated. There is no limit to size of a file you can import.However, it you are only using a 32 bit computer, running Windows 32 bit and Movie Studio 32 bit, that may be one possible reason.

32 bit computers have a memory limit that is quite small. 64 bit is far superior - this is what most people use today.The other possible reason may have nothing to do with file size. It may be that the Video Codec being used is not compatible with Sony Software and this is causing the crash.

Try converting the video using a Video Conversion program. Convert to H.264.mp4 then import. Derek, Thanks for taking the time to post all this very useful information.

I am now surfing to try and find an answer to my issue. I have a Dell with Windows 7 and use Sony Vegas 10 Platinum. I import from a Sony Handycam and Vegas has no issue reading the files. I import to PCM and also have imported via Vegas direct. My issue is that i have about 70 small files to import and after 50 it just freezes up.

I tried first importing all at once, this caused a freeze. I rebooted and started importing 6 files at a time. Good as far as I got then freeze. Rebooted and started importing 6 at a time from the bottom up and again, after about 50 it freezes. Its not a particular file causing it.

I dont want to go to importing one at a time as at some point I will freeze. Is there a general limit or are you aware of anyone having a similar issue?Sadly I am somewhat technically challenged so unable to provide too much technical detail, sorry. What type of video files are they?Do they end with.mp4 or.mov or something else?How much RAM is installed on your computer?Make sure you have no other programs running at same time when using Movie Studio.Before you do anything else, I would recommend you do a complete reset of the program. This will clean temp files cache and default all settings to what they were when first installed. Read this for instructions.

It is safe to do and will not delete saved projects.The one problem with older versions of Movie Studio, is that the program is only 32 bit, which means it has a memory limit with how much RAM it can access. Technically speaking there is no limit to how many files you can import, however the way you are importing may have something to do with problem. Firstly, you should import all your videos into a folder on your computer - don't try and import direct from camera into program. Next, bdon't/b use Explorer tab to import videos from - this can cause problems in older versions of Movie Studio like v10. Use File (top menu) - Add Media or Import Media, then locate folder with videos and import just 5 or 10 at a time. Vegas Movie Studio Platinum 10 was one of the worst versions ever released - it had lots of bugs that were never fixed.

I will wait to hear back from you before saying anymore.Derek. Hi Derek,Firstly, many thanks for your kind advice. I have been using Studio 10 for a few years on and off with very small projects.

New Vegas Crashes Every 30 Minutes At Night

Now I have a weeks worth of film from a vacation about 100 plus small files to work with.For the questions you have asked, each file seems to have mpg after it.PCM is the Sony program I got with my Handycam and I can import direct to it from the camera and view the films and photos as they go direct to a file on the laptop. I have been importing to Studio from those files.I think the RAM I have is 1024.The Laptop is a Dell Studio 1749 with Intel core i5 CPU M540 @ 2.23 GHz64 bit operating systemWindows home premium 7I think one of the issues is patience, mine more than anything, I am getting the files into a project 5 at a time but after half way the circle just spins for up to ten minutes before they load.

Dragging them to the timeline is fine but playing and editing causes a freeze every now and again. I have to close and reboot each time. So this exercise has taken two weekends and I am not halfway in getting them to the timeline yet.

Obviously I have photos to add and at this point I would like to say last night I made the connection between you and the guy with numerous Youtube tutorials that have been so much help to me so far, thank you for your time. I was placing photos one at a time and trying to join them until you explained how to make a slideshow.

You may remember I stated I am technically challenged!!Interesting point you made about Studio 10, is it time to upgrade and if so on my system what version would you recommend?Thanks,Steve. Mount n blade cheats. If you need more help after this reply, can you please start a new message in the MSZ Forum. There is more room for long messages here and better controls.To find how much RAM you have, go to bControl Panel/b - set bView by/b (top right) to bLARGE/b - now select bSystem/b - this will show your RAM amount. You must have more RAM than 1GB. If it is only 1GB, that is what is causing problem! You need minimum 4GB to edit video.Your CPU may also be a bit too old and slow to handle Video Editing properly. It is only 2x Core.

4x Core minimum is preferred config. Your CPU is from 2010 - it wasn't until 2011, that Intel CPUs were optimised for proper video editing.Your.mpg video sounds like Standard Definition video - which is a good thing for you, because it is easier to edit than HD. I think you really need to buy a new computer.

A Desktop computer will give you more bang for your buck, if you intend to do a lot of video editing. If you get a new laptop, it must be more than a generic cheapo, otherwise you end up back in the same situation. Intel i5 or i7 4x Core with 8GBs of RAM or more is what you need.There are only two things I can recommend you do right now.#1.

Download free trial for Movie Studio Platinum 13 and see if this can handle your videos without crashing. If it works, buy this and use on current computer.#2. If that does not work, you need to import 4 or 5 videos into Vegas first and render into new video. Then re-import all these new sections into master project. Hi Ronnie.MOV video files have always been problematic due to the 'memory limitation' of Apple Quicktime for Windows. Apple supplies a different version of QT to Windows users, compared to the Apple OS version. This means you can only import a small number of.mov videos into Vegas Pro at one time.

I advise to only import 10x at a time. More than 20x will never work.Also make sure you have an older version of QT installed. I advise version 7.7.6. Read about this here:I also advise that you RESET Vegas Pro, by following these instructions.Please also read this forum thread from someone who was also using Vegas Pro 12:The most common solution that DSLR/Vegas Users use, is to convert the.MOV videos into a different format.AVI is not a video codec, this is only a generic file container, so you could had been using anything.Convert to H.264.mp4 or a lossless format, using a video conversion program.ORYou could import a small number of.MOV into Vegas Pro and convert to Sony MXF first, then re-import into your project.
