Jim, it’s a “feature”
* Enhanced Trimmer window with integral video monitor, separate external monitor, Enable Timeline Overwrite, and Fit to Fill modes.
When the Show Video Monitor button in the Trimmer window is selected, video that you preview from the Vegas Explorer and Media Manager windows is played back in the Trimmer. Because the Trimmer is placed in the same window dock as the Explorer and Media Manager, you will not see your video preview. To preview Explorer and Media Manager video, you can drag the Trimmer to a new dock group, or you can turn off the Show Video Monitor button to preview in the Video Preview window.

I have stuff in the newsletters at jetdv that should help you get this script written. Naturally, it already exists as well. Just send me an e-mail and I will help you get registered at my site.

I know my canon’s have a “watch” style battery that needs to be changed periodically. That battery maintains the clock when the regular battery is not there. Sounds like you may need to change the internal battery.

Think of a script as a “macro” on steroids. To use a script, you must have the pro version of Vegas (The Movie Studio versions don’t allow scripts). So scripts can automate tasks such as “selecting all events after the cursor”.

Hold down the ALT key when pressing the left or right arrow.

Set the CLOCK in the camera. Clip breaks are based on jumps in the date/time code and the clock must be set for that to work.

The easiest way is via a script. I use Excalibur for this but there are many other scripts that do this (including free ones) which you should be able to find with a search.

If this is a “Movie Studio” version, the custom button will NOT be available – it’s only available in the full version.
If this is a full version, Here’s a possible solution.

1. File – New – Single Movie – pick the video file
2. On the “Media Properties” on the right, click on “End Action”
3. Change the “Destination” to the name of the video file. It’s a drop down box and should be the only option besides “Most Recent Menu”Now when you prepare the DVD, it will play forever (or until ejected) automatically upon insertion.

James, see this link:
https://forums.creativecow.net/readpost/24/883634If you’ve changed that option, Vegas will no longer “close” the file when it loses focus meaning the other app can’t save. If you reset it back to the default setting, the media WILL close but it will take longer when you return to Vegas and it will work as you remember.
