I have used YouSend it for years and am using Hightail now albeit less than I used to so I haven’t noticed a difference. The only issue I have ever had was a seriour speed difference on the upload using the web vs the desktop app. The web was far faster eventhough the listed transfer speed much higher. Never could get an answer on that one.

Can you elaborate as to what the issues are?
Thanks

Bingo…!!!

So the GUI check box is DOA…thanks for this answer..now it works fine.

It is always a journey.

Thanks much

Did you try using the Veg backup file? Leave the original backup file and copy it with another name and be sure to remove the bak extension

Note: It will have the same name as your normal Veg file except with the BAK extension.

Where exactly is their a “False” selection in the preferences tab?
I only see a box to check or uncheck, which I have done numerous times to no avail.

Stretched the budget a bit but I just had to build something I could live with for a while…software to boot.

Any ideas what the issue may be Steve? I have yet to do some more experimentation so it may jsut be a glitch.
I did have one spot on another project, no effects, nada, simple quick cut and it would halt evertime at that one spot. The fix.
Creat a new track and move the events over. Who knows why but these things happen.

Update and some issues with lates build.

Assembled most of my list from Video Guys Sandy Bridge list except I elected some items for higher end products. Build 10 was not to be published for a while and the cost of this system was at my high end budget, including all the new software.

1 CPU 4930K Ivy Brigde
2 32 Gig Ripjawz 2133
3. Nvida PNY K4000
4. ASUS P9X79 Pro
5. Crucial SSD 960GB (OS/Programs drive)
6. WD Velociraptor 600 GB (Media Drive)
7. WD 160 WD Velociraptor 160 GB (Render Drive)
8. Cool Master Full tower (USB 3/2, E Sata) Huge case
9. Water Cooled
10. Net Gear Wireless USB Adapter
11 Win 7 64 bit Pro
12. Sony 12 Suite..updated to latest build
13. Boris Red
14. Boris Particle
15. ASUS Blue Ray
16. Firewire PCIe card

Render times and timeline preview all markedly improved over older systsem. However I dropped one Low Res PNG on the time line with 2 other tracks of MXF 1080 files from my Ex1. Project properties all matched source etc. The image file (also converted to other formats for testing) would signicantly stagger the preview.
Note: there are no effects inplemented on any events.

GPU has been turned off (tried on…no difference)
Nothing running in the background, no antivirus or horrible windows defender.

My older system runny Vegas 8 was a rock in comparison and it would never hiccup like this.

I’ve not turned up any info in research so perhaps I have missed something. Nothing in the preferences I can immediately see.
This has to be a simple one…..maybe.

Of interesting side note…no matter how many times I delect the Video preview during render option it stills does it anyway. So the only recourse is to close the preview window. Curious issue,
Thanks as always

Lots of good details here to sift through and understand…thanks.
Once question to help me understand a bit more about the SSD.

Can you explain why using a dedicated SSD/HDD doe rendering would not result in shorter render times? With no heads and spinning discs one would think it would be a faster process. No doubt I do not have a good grasp on the meaning spec data of either. As mentioned before, I have always used dedicated drives for separate tasks and enjoyed efficiency and thought the same would apply using SSD’S.

Understand about the defined write cycles of SSDS but don’t have a comparison of what the life would be vs HDD. Not really concerned about the SSD dying as all the media would be archived and only the Vegas project file would be updated. I’ve always made sure to save the project to other drives with all the media in one folder. Nothing of mine is ever spread across multiple drives.

Thanks for the assitance

I have always known WIndows was a far inferior platform from back in the when I worked with servers and a software developer who designed programs for us.

To really date this I still recall the tried and true DOS systems and and how you needed a decent grasp of it to be proficient. Cant ever remember a time having any problems with those systems. We used to write our own batch commands to automate some of our multi system functions.
Then came Windows…

I really appreciate all the great and quite varied info, so from this chair I will assemble the best list I can from my budget, By next year it will be obsolete anyway.
LOL

I am researching using two 960 GB SSD drives that sell for about $1,000 each and smaller maybe 520 GB for rendering. Not totally convinced but I would prefer to have Vegas, OS on one and the media on the other and a third to render plus externals for archival. Not interested in RAID drives at this point. I’m not shooting 4K or Red footage (yet) so not a must have. Plus I would rather spend resources on items that increase efficiency. I want rock solid components and am not shy about paying a bit more for it. If I am overlooking something please share that.

Question for John ..
When is the latest and greatest from Apple being released? No info I have seen from Apple or what the specs are. Running Vegas on means you’re are using bootcamp I trust. That being said are you saying that the hardware they have will be superior to PC’S?

Apple does ensure component compatibility with their systems based on their Linux OS but do they do the same for the Windows OS?
After all the CPU is Intel and in actuality it is a PC…but with an Apple OS.

I own a Mac and it is very solid and trust worthy but I don’t use the MAC side very often. So what will the real difference be unless you have gone to the dark side and are using FCP. ???

Xeon processors are designed for servers not workstations so I am wondering the application realism. Are there any dual processor motherboards using other Intel CPU’S?

Thanks for all the suggestions…keep them coming.
