so I've been having a be of a time with Sony Vegas uh over the last probably
year or so I really like the way the software works but it's been incredibly
buggy for me so one of the solutions that I found was to use a power director
which like honestly just feels like uh
feels like a child's toy to me compared to a tool like Sony Vegas even though
I'm not using professional I am using no I don't want to do that I am using uh
Sony Vegas uh what's it called movie studio Platinum just because uh between
that one and power director I spent a couple hundred dollars on editing software in the last little while so
anyway I very much prefer to work with Vegas but I've had some problems with
rendering so whenever I'm trying to do high quality files longer files files
with a lot of different transitions or a lot of different effects basically it's
just timing out in the rendering so what I determined that this was to do with
because a lot of the time about 60% of the time it gives me an error that says
something about not enough available memory well news flash for you uh Sony
Vegas my system has 24 gigs of memory um
so yes I don't think that's the problem what the problem actually is is that
Sony Vegas is a 32-bit program um on the
nonprofessional version so even though I'm running a 64-bit OS I'm only getting
access to 2 gig of memory for that program so I've
finally tracked it down to that is the problem and I found a great little blog
post on a site called make Tech easier and they have a link
to where is it here it is great little
program right here it's on NTC core.com 4GB patch. PHP I have now used it it
took about 2 seconds to patch Sony Vegas
uh movie studio platinum in order to render my wedding video which I'm going
to be putting up on my this cat tips Channel I'm going to put it up for a little while I'm not sure how long I'll
leave it there but uh there you go it has solved the problem that I've had
with Sony Vegas for quite a while and I just thought I'd give a shout out to I
mean I have no idea who these guys are NT core.com sure why not um yeah so if
you ever have a problem where you're running into memory issues on a system that clearly has enough memory in a
multimedia type program or 3D rendering or whatever the case may be or very
large Excel files if you accidentally installed the 32 gig version our 32-bit
version of office then this could fix your problem so thank you for checking
out this little Linus Tech tip and
