    In “play all” version of project I need to update a one minute segment.
    Even with dual core machine this 12 minutes takes a l-o-n-g time to render.
    How do I render this one segment (about a minute long) to mpeg2 without rendering the entire project?
    Thanks

    Set the loop points to that section and in the render window check the “render loop section only” box. Of course this will create a new file of just that section and will not update that section in an already rendered mpeg.

    The same segment is on a menu page in this project.
    Rendering the changed version also updates the mpeg2 file in that location.
    But can’t to get the changes to take on the “play all” file.
    What’s puzzling is that both should be linked to the same file,—right?

    Ok, I didn’t understand what you were doing but I think I know what may be happening. Yes, rendering the file with the same name will update it and it will appear in DVDA as the updated mpeg. But, make sure you tell DVDA to prepare the DVD again. Don’t just render from Vegas and go straight to burning another copy. DVDA has to prepare again and THEN burn your disc.

    Hope this helps.

    Got that.
    Veg file is re-edited.
    Veg file is rendered to mpeg2.
    Segment linked to menu page is updated.
    Segment in “play all” file is UNchanged.
    What would cat man do, mister?
    sorry

    Are you burning discs from this or are you still looking at it in DVDA preview? If you’re burning discs, the step you didn’t say you’d done was tell DVDA to prepare the disc again. I would delete the previous folder where DVDA is preparing to and then prepare the whole project again. What the hey, before that I’d delete the mpeg render of that section BEFORE rendering it again from Vegas. That way you’re starting with new versions of everything for sure.
    That’s what I’d do Pea. lol
