Had no choice when I built the new system as far as what what build was available. Steve any reason you have not upgraded to build 726, is there something in particular that has been problematic?
My personal preferenece is to never upgrade to the latest and greatest until it has been out on the market for quite some time. No interest in being a beta tester. Unpaid no less.

Guess it is a case of splitting hairs here if we are talking about the change not being perceptible to the naked eye. As I understand it anytime you render something there is a loss of quality.

I’ve read your post a few times over in an attempt to grasp what you are asking. The question to you would be why would you need to use the time line as a means of categorizing events and sub categories via visual clues?
I do understand that you don’t want any of the events from one section to mix with another sections events. You can highlight all the events you want and then make them all part of the same group (Shift+G). That will make them all move in unison but wont prevent the group from being moved. I’m not sure if you can create a group then use properties and LOCK them or if that has to be done to each event. If it did work as a group function then you would not be able to do any further editing with them since they would all be locked.
Now if you simply would like to organize all the media into logical folders and sub folders (called bins), you can do that in the Project Media window by right clicking and creating all the bins you require then dragging, or importing media into their respective bins.
Hope one of the two is what you are looking for, if not then I totally missed the mark.

Always concerned with loss of quality with additional renders that’s all.

It is indeed that confusing…all depends on what you have on the timelines and what you have done with grouping, etc.
Been burned enough times to know unfortunately.

Indeed it is confusing how this one was laid out for functionility by Sony. I would guess that every SVP user at somepoint has forgotten to deselect Auto Ripple only to find out later much to their dismay.
It works, but in my opinion is very limited and you have to be oh so careful to zoom out on your timeline then back in and make sure you are exactly where you want to be on the timeline before invoking the process. Enabling the SNAP function will ensure you are on the first frame of the event which is important. But like most editors I would presume all your audio does not begin and end with it’s respective video event. Often times the audio will lead or trail and that makes this process all the more difficult. Not to mention if you have grouped events that are not all nicely lined up and down the tracks.
The autoripple in the case of grouped events will start not from where you expect but where any portion of the event actually appears on the timeline that it is associated with. As would be the case for your audio. In my early days od editing with SVP I was extra cautious after having been unhappily suprised by this and I’d save the project under a different name just in case. Now having used the product for years I dont do that anymore but still every once in a while it gets me…and I bet most of us.
My suggestion is to save your project under a different name and go and experiment. A side caveat gotcha is the ignore grouping selection. That will really ruin your day if it slips by without notice.
Hope this…helps…or at least makes you slow down and recheck that very powerful little selection. I wish a big RED X would appear to remind us it is active.

That would requir a double render wouldn’t it?
It should work no matter how larger the project is. Not sure what that means but by my work it would be about 2 hours of stage production or more. -
James are you saying that the effect will not function in Sony Pro 12 as it does in the Avid tutorial?
I hope that is not the case as I just spent quite a bit on all Boris products.

John had explained that the prior versions of Sony did not afford the ability to do this so I was hoping with the new release it would be.
Mr Rofrano…any hope for this becoming a reality?

Sorry for the late reply.
No issues other than the option to not preview while rendering was not functioning regardless of the selection in the Video options tab.
I had to manually select FALSE as recommended under the hidden tab.
Tried many times to get it to work and this was the only option.
