There is an icon to toggle. Disabled it hides the keyframing / treats the clip as a single key frame.
F1 and searching for key frames would be the best way to figure that out.

If you got the i7 then yes.
If you got 16GB or more of system memory when you bought it, then yes.
If you got the Nvidia 2-4GB video card when you bought it, then yes.
harddrive/storage is a different topic.
Clearly the test drive is the best way to see if its usable. Getting a copy of Speccy, and then posting the system specs, will help people help you more.
Knowing what you plan on editing from camera to final render format would be good to know too.

5600K is pretty cool for stage lamps that are not “Daylight” LED. If the stage lamps were tungsten, you had your white balance off, should have been more like 3200K. This would add a lot of RED to the scene.
RED + BLUE = Purple
If the stage lamps were colored a red tone, then again red+blue=purple.
the light is not comprised of pure red, nor the material a perfect blue. If it were, the dress would have appeared black under the RED + BLUE material. So the material reflected some of the light back which was predominantly reddish.
Shoot a white card, or color balance to a medium grey card before shooting in those condition. A color “chip” chart would be the best.

Using the color correct effect (the one with the color wheels for high/med/low) and the eye dropper tools, you can achieve the same effect. Actually you probably will get better color balance that way.
- Low – use the add or subtract on a black shadow area or a color you want black.
- Mid – use either eye dropper tool on a medium white tone or grey.
- High – use either eye dropper on an area of white in your scene.
The RGB histogram will show you the color imbalance. The RGB peaks should roughly align, based on how much warmth or cool tone you want in your image.
Shoot a chip chart while you are shooting, and you can pretty much just eye drop the black/medium/white areas of the chart. You can use the crop/zoom tool to punch in on the chart to make it full screen. Then use the waveforms/histogram to level the shot.

You may want to post some screenshots of what you are doing or trying to do. I am not following, I am sure most are not either.

How about Sony Levels? Sont levels allows for single channel RGB selection.

I would list more information about your system specs, including sound card in use, GPU, CPU, memory type, system motherboard. “Speccy” is a good tool for this, and can export to a text format. Then post the summary section into the post.
List your version and build number of Windows and Vegas.
Make sure your Windows is up to date, and drivers up to date. Also make sure to include .net updates in windows update.
If you know how, run memtes86+ (https://www.memtest.org/) and verify your memory has Zero errors across multiple runs.
Run SFC /SCANNOW from an admin command prompt. This verifies the integrity of your windows core files. You should get a “Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations.” response.
Check your system DPC latency with:
https://www.thesycon.de/eng/latency_check.shtml or https://www.resplendence.com/latencymonList your source media format (using “media info” app.) List your intended workflow from source, to timeline ,to export format.
The last time I had this File IO error was way back, and my issue was with a really old high end Sound Blaster card. Once I removed it and the drivers, then switched to the newer on-board card the problem went away. That is why I suspect something with your configuration or workflow.
The community is really good at helping people that list enough details about the problems they are having.
Most of us did not put enough points into Divination, to read minds from a far.

1. Process RAW files via Canon software and export .DPX sequence
2. Import .DPX sequence into FFMPEG
3. Export another .DPX sequence from FFMPEG
4. Import FFMPEG .DPX sequence into Vegas for editingActually 2 and 3 are the same, so its really only a 3 step process.
I agree that Canon or Vegas should allow direct import of RAW, or vegas to support Canons DPX sequence.
There is a software DEV kit on the Canon site, can’t imagine Vegas dev’s would not be able to resolve this quickly.
One other thing to note is that the RAW exports should be worked in the ACES, or 2020 color space to maintain the information from RAW format. Otherwise you are clipping information by squeezing it into the 709 color space.
Here is an interesting ratings article showing % of color space coverage by monitor type.
https://www.rtings.com/tv/tests/picture-quality/wide-color-gamut-rec-709-dci-p3-rec-2020
Of course your monitor cable supported level, GPU/video output device capabilities, and monitor input supported levels all need to align. Your Vegas project settings also needs to align to the correct project mode.

Magix should support native editing of RAW formats, or simply a utility that conforms RAW formats/image sequences to EXR 2.0. Exr 2.0+ supports various mathematically lossless compression formats. EXR with or with out compression would be the intermediate format. Then we could edit RAW footage in the ACES color space.
Vendor agnostic RAW (means support all, figure it out, there are not that many) -> EXR 16-bit or 32bit Linear Float -> Output to desired SDR/WDR formats, or back to EXR sequence to maintain information and future proof.
->Proxy if needed – but improving playback of EXR would be better due to the way sub-sampling is support to work with EXR.
This would be a great Vegas workflow and up the game. Probably the only way Vegas would gain an edge over the competition.
Better ACES capable effects would be needed as well. There are a host of 32-bit float effects in the drawer, but when deployed they clearly are effecting standard video levels or 8-bit. There are threads on ACES workflows in Vegas, but all use a kludge method of working around the main CC interface.
Sound would be handled separate, in a similar float format fashion.

There several screen capture programs out there like OBS, Xsplit, Merillis Action, and some that come with your GPUs.
I would post a youtube showing what your problem is, so the community can help better.
To me this sounds like a problem with track selection before inserting new text.
I always just CTRL+Drag, selecting new, then replace the duplicated text where needed.
