Problem: I added Stabilizer Pro to a clip, click on Analyze, and get the following error.. “an invalid argument was specified”
Answer: The solution in your case is to uninstall Stabilizer. Then reinstall Stabilizer and, this time, pick “Sony Vegas Movie Studio and older Pro versions” as the target application. You will no longer have an “Analyze” button as the Movie Studio version analyzes on the fly.
The Pro version uses scripting to go through the analyzing process which the Movie Studio versions of Vegas do not support. With Movie Studio, it analyzes on the fly which means you may wish to do some pre-rendering or ram-rendering while adjusting the settings. Otherwise, the two versions work the same.
