*whimpers*

Oh man, oh man...

I was so close to finishing a vid with Vegas when it loses my file!

Luckily, I had a backup .avi turned .wmv copy of it. But now Vegas completely fucks up and freezes and crashes with it! When I tried to play the vid from the start in Vegas, the end result is just the first pic, then blackness, with audio. And it renders the same way. What the fuck is going on!!! I can start this vid from scratch again. I don't have time or patience!

EDITED TO ADD: Now I don't even have my back-up anymore since I fucked it up with that stupid FourCC Changer! All I have is a sloppy back-up!

*cries*

Okay, I quit.

RE-EDITED TO ADD: What really pisses me off is that the vid wasn't even for me! I wanted to do it as an unspoken favor for someone.

Oh God. Please let me wake up tomorrow morning and find out that Vegas is cooperating enough (that means playing the video and audio without dying) so I can manage to salvage what I have and finish this thing.

*prays*

*sobs*

*goes to bed*

Maria, I was bored and reading some of your back posts to catch up with you.

Is Vegas really giving this much trouble? Why didn't you tell me? I prolly could've helped you figure it out. Sometimes it can very tempermental depending on your codecs or programs that rely on similar files. And sometimes it can be something very simple.

Don't ever hesitate to ask me questions. I'm around almost all day every day and I don't mind helping at all. I know how frustrating it can be sometimes, that's why I can help. ;)

Well it was giving me trouble that night-into-day. It's really weird. One night it just decided not to play what I had thus completed from the start (it'd just freeze up). Luckily I was able to salvage some stuff and put it into WMM. Vegas still worked fine when it came to editing (like splicing and effects) so I finished my vid by doing the effects and stuff in Vegas and pasting it all together in a giant vid in WMM. This was for Aislynn's birthday so I was in a rush. I've uninstalled and reinstalled it but I haven't tried Vegas since then. So hopefully things are going semi-okay... *crosses fingers*

Thanks so much for your concern though, sweetie! And I'll let you know if I ever need help.

*hugs* ;)

Okay. =) I've dealt with a lot of crap from that program so I'm pretty sure if you're having trouble I've already had it and fixed it.

*hugs back*

And I'm almost caught on your journal. =)

Thanks again. I'll that all in mind! :D

lol. You don't have to catch up on my journal. There's nothing important anyway. :) ♥
