I am trying to create an output file (12 mins long) with VideoWave 8 and I am getting an error that says 'Unable to build the render graph'.  Can anyone help me figure out what is going wrong.  

Thanks!

Go to Tools/Options and change the rendering to "software" and try again.  If this works, the program is telling you that you need to update the drivers for your video card/chips.  If you have used V7/7.5, you will find that this version does require more of your computer's video card/chips so it is important to keep them up to date.  If you have the space, $, and time, you might consider adding a new card since you will get more transitions and effects in V8 with a better card or simply with a newer driver.

Regardless of what I say about computer maintenance, there is no need to defrag a solid state hard drive.

I can only add to check to be sure you have the latest video drivers and DirectX drivers.  That usually fixes problems such as yours.

I have version 10 and was also getting that error "unable to build the render graph".

After updating DirectX, updating my video drivers, setting DPI to 96. I was still having the same problem.

My solution?

THe folder I was trying to save my OUTPUT File to had a space in the folder name.

I took the space out, and it worked fine.

Thought I'd pass it along.

Having a Space in the folder or filename has nothing to do with the problem.

Yes - that is the answer. I was writing the VideoWave 10 output to the folder 'G:\Videos\ISO Images' and it failed. Writing to 'G:\Videos\ISO_Images' (note the underscore) works. Spaces in the file name don't seem to matter. Go figure.

I am using Roxio EMC 10 (Build 100B44B ENU).

For Windows 7

1. Tried to modify the settings to Software instead of Hardware - Not worked
2. Updated graphic drivers - Not worked
3. Executed regsvr32 "C:\Program Files\Roxio\Roxio Easy Media Creator 9 Suite\VideoCore 9\sonicmcdsdv.ax" - this command did not executed properly and not worked
4. Modified the output directory with spaces out. Example "Movie Clips" to "Movie_Clips" - WORKED...


So issue is with spaces here.

You will have other issues - no suite prior to Creator 2010 is compatable with Windows 7
