Best route for joining projects
My feature is broken in 3 parts, it was much eaiser to work with and load. Now I want to join all of it together. I know you can nest, but I don’t really understand it. It seems more temporary to me. I know I can copy and paste, but what is the best route and why?
Thanks

If you have Vegas 6, the best way would really be nesting. Just start a new project and add each of the three individual projects to that new project. The new project will appear to have THREE events (one from each project).
There are several alternatives but one I have used frequently is very similar to the above (and works in previous version of Vegas as well). Simply render each project to a separate DV-AVI file, start a new project, and then add these three rendered files to the timeline.

So they have to be rendered before they can be added?

yes, to AVI, but is queeeek

HAVE to be??? No. But it’s far easier than trying to copy/paste between projects – especially with different track layouts and if you’ve used any track level effects.
That’s also one of the advantages of nested projects – you don’t have to render first.

I have found that saving projects (with media) that include nested projects within them is problematic. What is the solution to that?

My solution is to never use the “copy media” option when saving VEG files. Besides, I don’t like my AVI’s broken up into AVI and W64.
