Important Vegas Pro 14 and Vegas DVD Architect - new free build versions released

Hi everyone

Magix has released two new program updates this week.

Vegas Pro 14 - #270
If you own Vegas Pro 14, the 7th update has now been released, which is Build version #270.
Official announcement was made here on the VEGAS forums:

Here are the patch notes for this update:

• Audio from ProRes 422 HQ files now plays properly
• Multi-channel audio files now show up correctly with new ProRes plugin
• Both channels of a stereo ProRes are now properly recognized
• The first frame is no longer repeated in renders to ProRes and HEVC formats
• Audio from 4k files shot with the Atomos Shogun 4K Recorder is now supported
• Audio from ProRes 422 files shot with Black Magic cameras now properly supported
• H.265 MP4 footage from DJI Phantom 4 Professional Camera Drone now supported
• The keyframe event "Set To" context menu operation of an OFX video effect now adjusts the keyframe value as expected
• Markers and regions are now properly saved inside the Trimmer window for ProRes and HEVC files
• Certain HEVC files that failed to load in previous builds are now supported

Vegas DVD Architect -#67
If you own Vegas Pro 14, Vegas Pro 14 Suite, Vegas Movie Studio 14 Platinum or Vegas Movie Studio 14 Suite, a new update to Vegas DVD Architect has been released. All of these programs use the same version of DVD Architect now, so it is important to update if you own any of these versions.

Official announcement was made here on the VEGAS forums:
www.vegascreativesoftware.info/us/forum/vegas-dvd-architect-update-2-build-67--107128/

You can download the new build version directly from this link:

Here are the patch notes for this update:

Improvement

Added Polish language support

Bug fixes

Properly imports files received from the VEGAS Movie Studio Make Movie wizard when you choose to burn a disc with menus

5.1 Blu-ray discs authored by DVD Architect now play correctly in external players

The main bug which has been fixed in this version, is something that affected Vegas Movie Studio 14 Platinum users.
If you select Make Movie/Burn it to DVD or Blu-ray disc and tried to send the rendered video to Vegas DVD Architect, DVDA would not automatically open and import the video from Vegas Movie Studio. This bug has now been fixed and both programs are now talking to each other correctly. Installing build version #67 for Vegas DVD Architect (7) will fix this problem.

Thanks Derek. DVDA updated.

Vegas is the only software I have that doesn't contain a Check for Updates button in its options. Most unusual.

Derek, thank you for being on top of things, now updated.
Likewise Eric about check for updates.

DVDA doesn't even appear to have the "Newsfeed" option that's available in VMS/VPro so unless they frequent the forums frequently DVDA users won't be aware of the update.

It was the same in SCS days so nothing's changed. I wonder if Magix's other software behaves in the same way?

I have bought 3 other Magix programs in the last 12 months.
This is what I can report:
Magix releases very regular program updates to all their programs.
Bugs are addressed very quickly and new build versions are released every couple of weeks.
However the programs never seem to let you know, when these new build versions are available.
So each week I have got into the habit of pressing Help/Update online.
As an example, I have just done this now for the program Magix Video Edit Pro, and this is the information screen that appears.
It shows build version available and actually lists all bug fixes and new features.
I would guess that when Vegas Pro 15 arrives, it will have the same function added to it.

There is a Newsfeed window that pops up all the time, but that it only showing Marketing messages.

Thanks Derek. It appears that Magix's own software gets updated frequently. Let's hope this good habit gets copied over to the Vegas line.
