  • How to leave media online?

    Posted by Rasmus Mauritsen on May 19, 2008 at 11:44 am

    Hi guys,

    Im doing a large project with 37 8gig SxS cards in my bin – about 300 files. The problem is, that whenever I need to check my mail or check a fact online my media comes offline – actually that isn’t the problem – the problem occurs when I re-enter Vegas. It takes forever for the files to come online again. Sometimes I start playing back my entire timeline before leaving the software – that prevents it from going offline, but im sure there must be a way (maybe in preferences) to keep media online at all times?! Can anyone help?

    Thanks – and the best regards!

    – Rasmus, Denmark

    Options – Prefs – General.
    Look at the Close media files when not the active application box.
    If it’s selected, de-select it or vice-versa.
    That should help.

    I’ve heard Vegas has a hard time finding files on large hard drives, 500g and larger. Some people are partitioning them into smaller 200 gig partitions with success. Danny
