you’re welcome 😀
HTH

is an ‘issue’ that pops up quite often

[Adam Rose esq.]

simple solution: OPTIONS / PREFERENCES / GENERAL

Untick the box that says CLOSE MEDIA FILES WHEN NOT THE ACTIVE APPLICATION

😀

Non Linear Editor

your video editing app – vegas, FCP, PPro etc

[Adam Rose esq.]

well, After Effects will do a better job for compositing, but Vegas Pro has better compositing abilities than any other NLE, that’s for sure.

[Adam Rose esq.]

could use a playlist, OR simply change the END ACTION of each clip to the next piece in the chain.

look through the properties in the top right pane for the end actions, or browse the help file for exact pointers.

[Adam Rose esq.]

sounds like you be compositing in them thar hills. Pro is more suited to the task. Studio could do the muzzle flashes, but only real way you’re going to assess your needs is to try out both trial versions and see which you need.

[Adam Rose esq.]

thanks for that.
so it only works with XDCAM disk cameras, right? c’est la vie.

did you download the manual from the sony site?

you could try creating a playlist, with each video as an item on the list.

drop the videos on to the root folder first (not on a menu page), in order to have them on the dvd without being individual buttons on the menu

then drag n drop them from the folder on to the playlist in the order you require.

turn that off.
