That’s what he’s saying. If you have a 64 bit OS you can add a whole lot more RAM. However, if you have a 64 bit OS and are running Vegas 32 bit you are still limited. If you are running the 64 bit version of Vegas you can use substantially more RAM.

What type of files are you working with? It sounds like AVCHD which is processor intensive. Do you have a lot of fx (or any) on the footage? That can definitely slow it down. If you did a Ram preview and still have the issue then something is wrong as that should allow you to view as much on the timeline as the RAM will allow for (could be 4 seconds, could be 20 seconds or something else).
If you move the footage after the RAM preview or cut it or add something to it or take something away you lose the RAM preview.

Playback is dependent on your hardware (mainly CPU, Disk throughput). You will benefit from adjusting your playback to Preview Auto. This is the setting I mainly leave my editing system at as it results in great playback and decent quality.
Of course, when you render, the sharpness will not be affected by the preview setting. The settings there only affect what you are viewing while editing (again, it does not affect your final product).

That’s not correct. The amount of time you can effectively put on a bluray disc is mainly dictated by the bitrate at which you encode the footage. The higher the bitrate, the less amount of time-based footage your BluRay disc will hold. the lower the bitrate, the more footage it will hold. This is where a compromise will come in. If it is nothing more than static shots (shots that have no, or very, very little movement) you can lower the bitrate significantly and it still look really good. If there is a lot of movement, you will have to have a higher bitrate to keep a quality look to your footage. You will need to experiment to see what bitrate will work for your footage. You could but 4 or 6 hours on a Bluray disc (or more even) but it may not look good at all depending on the bitrate and the type of footage that was shot in HDV.
Hopefully that will help get you started.

Have you tried a different monitor/computer? Perhaps attach a link to a few videos that you see as fuzzy and let us see how they show up to us. Is anything else showing fuzzy?

Does Vegas Pro 9 still allow you to do this? I would submit a ticket directly to Sony concerning this.
Here is the link: Sony Support

Yeah. I said that wouldn’t make a difference and recommended you follow John’s advice about reinstalling the software. I just wanted to make sure all the basis were covered (troubleshooting) before you had to reinstall.

Just right click on an empty area of the timeline and choose insert video track and audio track. That should not make a difference.
It is odd that you can drag from the explorer inside of Vegas but not from the desktop itself. I would recommend following John’s advice and uninstall and reinstall to see if the error corrects itself on re-installation.

Just to be sure, can you drag from the explorer pane within Vegas? Also, do you have a video track header on the timeline?
