I think i have been trying to edit form the c drive, but have got a large external drive which i will use in future.

The PC is grunty enough – intel core i7, quad core cpu

DVDs aren’t copyrighted or encrypted – we have all rights to use them/edit them.

After mucking around i have found that i can import media direct from the disc in Platinum. So it maybe that i copy the .vob files to the external hard drive, import into Vegas from there and try and do the editing that way.

Hopefully that works! Thanks very much for all the assistance.

Yes i still have the .vob files – i’ve finished with theses ones but will have the same problem next season as well.

I renamed them but – and i think it’s because they are quite long (90mins+) – when i go to edit them in the preview window they are impossible to work with – the video and audio is out, the timing is all over the place, and it’s very difficult to move around in the video.

I’ve had another go and i can import the .vob file directly without having to rename but still the quality isn’t good. Will work with a few of the files and see what the end product looks like.
