Thank you for replying Mike. You are right, somehow the setting changed to Best/Auto from Best/Full as I was manipulating the images to position them for the screen grab. But changing to full did not improve the clarity. I think Auto matters only while playing the timeline… But the original image (on the right) is not larger than the DV frame. I cropped/scaled the original in Photoshop to 690/480 and then imported into Vegas. I thought that just importing an image is not changing it’s clarity, before rendering done. If this is not true, and some deterioration is expected as you seem to imply, no problem. I just did not want to loose quality because I did not set some setting correctly.

Resurrecting the old thread – I started looking closer at the image quality as it is imported into Vegas 10, and noticed the same. The image that looks sharp in Photoshop, once imported and placed on the timeline, would loose some sharpness. The project setup is standard NTSC DV, preview is set to “Best, full”. I captured the monitor screen with the Vegas preview on the left, Photoshop window on the right. Also tried different file formats (PNG, JPG)- same result. There must be a good reason for that…

That is right, no dialog

Positive. There is a split second blink, similar to a pop up being closed by a pop up killer, no activity after that. The destination folder is empty. I ripped many DVDs in the past, so I have a general feel for what is expected…

Hmm, still no luck. I insert the DVD into aone of the DVD drives. Vegas correctly identifies the drive that has the disk while in import menu. It does not allow me to actually select the video and audio folders, just the DVD drive. Once I hit OK, it just blinks and nothing happens

You are probably having the same problem I run into working with the DVDs made with the stand alone Panasonic recorders. They do some odd things to the vob files, as a result of putting in invisible markers in them. Anyway, there is a program called Videoredo https://www.videoredo.com/, it has a feature called fixvideostream. It goes through the file quickly, and renumbers the frames in a standard way (it is my understanding). After that,the VOB file is recognized correctly.
BTW, I tried to use the new DVD import feature in the C release, nothing happens. Is it only supposed to work with the connected DVD camera, or any DVD drive?

Also, Chris, the setting does not have to be 16 mb. My allowable max RAM number is 895 mb. Just backing off by 50 mb made the render work, but a bit slower. Reducing down to any low number made it work normally.
