By the way my files read media offline because I was cut npasting pics to you… and not a problem with the files.

Okay Jeff… here are 7 screen shots. 4 from vegas and 3 from DVDA. I think it contain all the answers to your earlier questions. maybe you’ll find something obviously wrong. Just know that the preview I get in DVDA runs like a dream. I am so bummed this isn’t working yet. I have a personal deadline of May 19 to invite over the families that went camping with us for a premiere, but… oh well.
Thank you kindly for the hand!!

You’re almost speaking Greek to me, but I think I know what you’re getting at. When I get home from work tonight I will research it and reply back. I am completely 100% self taught since 2008, so I technically lag sometimes.
One thing that occurred to me last night is that when I rendered my main video, I went against my first choice when rendering in favor of checking the new box Vegas Pro 11 offered that said ‘match output video’ or something or that nature. It basically recognized my native avchd footage but I just remembered that I also have some fuji xp20 underwater footage in there as well. maybe it is having difficulty with that footage since it is not 5.1 like my camera? Many variables…
I will reply back soon with those requested details, and thanks very much for your patience!

I’ve been brainstorming:
My main feature started last year as a vegas movie studio 9 project. Then I bought vegas pro 11 and opened that project in pro 11 to finish it. Would that have annything to do with it? It behaved alright in vegas and rendered in vegas like a dream.

Hey Jeff,
I usually always render while I sleep, so the best I can tell is about 6 hours. Keep in mind I have a 3+ year old computer or it would probably be faster.

okay… hands down, you guys are way smarter than I in this arena, but hear me out 1 time… I’ve done this 18 times before successfully with no compromise in vid quality, and then I switch to Vegas Pro 11 and I can’t make it work.
I rendered my SVP11 project in Vegas (not DVDA). I also rendered a nice moving main menu and a little chapter search menu in SVP11. Then I open DVDA, change the initial main menu b.g. and audio from my rendered main menu, drop in my rendered feature (53 minutes) which typically I always try to keep it under 106 minutes for compression reasons, and then I right right on that feature and add the menu which breaks down the chapters from my orange markers on the original project. All of this measures out in the lower right hand corner of DVDA as 4.3GB! Perfect by all my other projects for not pushing the compression envelope. I’m thinking shoe in at this point.
Now I even did all the suggestions regarding switching directories with media files joining it and hiding the name from prior post. That did not help (still froze at 83%).
I promise… size isn’t the issue here. Something isn’t jiving here, and I’m not smart enough with Vegas to figure it out. I’m a creative driver not a mechanic unfortunately.
I am totally open to any suggestions now that you have all the details.
Thanks you guys!
