What camera do you have? Are you using Vegas pro 8? Is there an error message that is displayed? Is there an audio track with an event on it but just with a flat line?
If you are filming in HDV and it is producing an M2T file, there should be audio.

Can you give some more information on settings?
File types that are on the timeline and in the project.
Project settings.
External drive or Internal? If internal is it the same as windows is on?
Any fx?
3D track motion?

It sounds as if it is a driver conflict. If you can find the process that is utilizing the driver and end it, you should be able to re establish the camcorder connection. It will be a process of elimination and may or may not work.
Go into task manager and close out all other programs and see if that remedies the situation. If it does not, go into the processes tab and start ending processes that are not tied to stability of windows and Vegas.

Try it with a new project and see if it will work. Make sure you are selecting the appropriate tracks.
If not, it sounds like something is corrupt.

You can’t. If it is already a .mov file, you cannot change the text as it is a video. however, you can replace the text with generated text media. Just key frame it to have the same motion as the original text if there is motion at all.

I have 2 of those cams and I can capture just fine on 3 different pc’s.
Do you have any other services running in the background such as virus protection? If so, shut them down.
What are the specs on your laptop? Do you have another pc to test it on? Have you been able to successfully capture from this cam to this laptop in the past?
Are you using the external capture utility? To capture HDV you will have to.

Take a look here.
You may want to adjust your RAM preview size down to 16 mb or 128mb and see if that helps. The other option would be to split up the video, render out to some format such as a lossless avi (or near lossless) and put those files on a new timeline and encode to your final render format.

Give Womble a try as it will allow you to stitch two mpeg files together without recompression so no worries.
However, you may be able to get away with one re encode, but anything over that should start showing a lot of artifacting. Even getting away with one may be questionable depending on your source footage and original encode settings.

If it is compliant and you are using Vpro8 it may not recompress thus resulting in no loss of quality.
However, why don’t you just put both files in a DVD A project and set the end action of one to start the other? it seems like this would save you a lot of time.

If you notice on the ripple edit icon there is a drop down arrow on the right hand side of it. Click it and look at the options it gives. Just make sure it lines up with what you want to do.
Glad to have you around and don’t fill bad about asking questions.
