    For practical purposes can anyone give me an example of this new feature ?
    I’m just upgrading to Vegas 6, but don’t feel improvements on the way I manage my files and assets with Vegas 5 (project media, etc.)…
    The manual doesn’t seem to explain many advantages of using this new feature…
    (And sometimes I feel it uses more system resources, at least on start…)

    Any comment would be greatly apreciated….

    Suppose you have a lot of buyout music, or backgrounds, or clipart, or lowerthirds, etc… that you need to be able to quickly search. The Media Manager will allow you to import all of those various media and enter them in various categories and give them various “tags”. Then you can quickly search to find the “Sesame Street Theme” song you have without searching all over the hard drive.

    For individual project clips, I don’t use it. Instead, everything from one event is in one folder and properly named. But if you have a lot of “common” media, it can be very useful to help quickly find items.

    Also, if you have media for a project spred out over mutltiple drives, Media Manager is great for organizing assets even if the drives are not currently hooked up to the system.
