Problems rendering Sony AVC video in Vegas Pro 10.0c

I've been having a crapload of problems with trying to render Sony AVC video in Vegas 10 and for the life of me, I can't figure out what the hell's the issue: for the first 30-35 minutes of the video, everything's fine and the video is clear, detailed, and without issues, but as soon as the video closes between 36-40 minutes of footage, the video becomes extremely pixilated and unclear. Rendering the video in 20-30 minute blocks doesn't have this problem, it only occurs if the video is close to or longer than 40 minutes.

The closest piece of information that I can find on this problem is that there was a video rendering issue with Sony AVC files in Vegas 10.0b, but I have the more recent 10.0c update (which was suppose to fix this issue, but apparently not with me...). Any ideas?
 
I think I had some minor issues at first, but I was able to get successful renders. Like the mpg encoding engine though, encoding to AVC didn't produce the best quality either. I have gotten fantastic results saving as lagarith AVI (same as my input) and encoding with x264 using MeGUI. No problems, beautiful quality.
 
When you say "saving as Lagarith AVI" do you mean that you encode as Lagarith and then encode again with MeGUI?
 
yes. "Render As..." This will encode to lagarith. If your project is set up properly, Vegas will take advantage of smart rendering where possible (frames that do not have any effect). Which doesn't matter much for quality, since its all lossless, but it does speed up the process dramatically.

Been testing this method for the last few days: the whole color correction of x264 and "Studio RGB Vs. PC RGB" aspects of both the software and the conversion process sorta threw me for a loop at first, but figured it out in the end and am now producing excellent x264 video files now.
Thanks for the advice.
