I know the thrust of this site is audio recording but I'm hoping that there's a Vegas Video user or two here as well.
Here's my problem: two of my projects have suddenly become unopenable (is that a word?) in Vegas Video 2.0h. I get this message an instant after choosing the files in question:
An error occured while loading the project file filename.veg
The COM object failed to initialize.
The only difference between the day before, when they opened fine, and the next day, when they do not, is I did some cleanup and moved some stuff I'd finished with off to a CD. It's possible I had an audio file that I might have accidentally deleted. But I would expect that to cause SF to tell me a file was not found and then open anyway with a "hole" where the missing piece had been.
I looked through the Knowledge Base on Sonic Foundry's website and found an article about a problem involving Video Capture that exhibited the same error message. Though it sounded like a different situation, just in case, I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Video Capture as described in that article, but it had no effect.
And in the Sonic Foundry support forums, someone else had posted a similar-sounding problem, thought the error message was different. Someone had suggested trying to open the back-up file (filename.veg.bak). I tried that, but that gives me the same error message.
I have a question in to SF Tech Support but I thought it was worth posting here in case someone else has encountered this problem.
Thanks!
