disappearing clip

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

I have a rather large (completed) timeline in Sony Vegas Pro 9.0 that I have difficulties with. I have it open, but the clips in the timeline aren't from the right episode. I had the vid edited (I'm not crazy, there is a beta render), now the clips have shifted to different episodes.

I tried reimporting, breaking the timeline into smaller pieces, and googling bunches of things, but I'm NOT getting anywhere with it.

Anyone know what's wrong?

I had this problem before but I think my computer broke so I had to reinstall it anyway. Maybe installing it again will help?

Also, another time my Vegas completely effed up was because I had installed the new itunes, and that made my clips not work :S Maybe a new program is interfering with it? Anyway those are just guesses, otherwise I have no idea, sorry!

Thanks!

I haven't downloaded new programs for a while, so I'll be reinstalling if it comes to that. :(

I had that issue (or something similar) a couple times, never knew what was wrong. Like you, tried to reimport, replace episode by same episode to see if it'd work. I sometimes tried to extend the clips that were shifted to see if vegas would shift back (don't remember if it worked) but I think it got back to normal after one or few restarts of vegas (and maybe after cleaning all the prerender stuff).

I'm thinking maybe it's the Vegas cache (I suppose something like this must exists) that's screw up because if you right click on said clip, and ask the info, it points to the right episode, right ? So maybe just restart vegas, even the computer and see what happens ?

not sure I'm helping, this is one of the weird thing with Vegas, that and the weird "now your clip is plain red" thing.

Good luck !

It feels like I've restarted hundreds of times. :( Three days of messing with it makes me a dull boy. I'll keep trying until I can't stand it and then I'll try reinstalling it.

Thank you so much!
