March 28, 2016 at 5:17 pm in reply to: How to fully utilize separate .veg projects in one timelineIt sounds like you did the menu option Import Media from Project, which just brings in the media with none of your edits. Try dragging the project veg files directly to a new timeline. You could use the explorer tab within Sony Vegas or the Windows explorer.

March 22, 2016 at 3:56 am in reply to: Windows 10 renaming drives and confusing Sony VegasThat is sounding more like a hardware issue despite the diagnostic test saying otherwise. Unfortunately to really troubleshoot, that would be near impossible via this forum. I would start unplugging components that were not necessary to boot, in an effort to find if just the bare bones system would work. If I had to go to a shop, I would find another shop with some people that could troubleshoot the scenario you described. You might find somebody with Knoppix (https://www.knopper.net/knoppix/index-en.html) to try a different OS with that hardware to see if it is a hardware problem of not. On systems where I have a DVD or CD drive I can boot from, Knoppix will give me a graphical Linux environment where you can see the drive icons when you plug in external drives. This is a handy test since it does not need to install anything on your computer, but runs a completely different operating systems to give you a good second opinion of the hardware. If the hardware seems to work, then they probably did not do a real clean install of Windows 10.

March 21, 2016 at 2:30 am in reply to: Windows 10 renaming drives and confusing Sony VegasYes. Since you specified it here in Disk Management, it should always assign that particular drive to H. So if you plug a different drive into that USB port, it may get F.

March 21, 2016 at 12:43 am in reply to: Windows 10 renaming drives and confusing Sony VegasDid you have the external drive plugged in at the time you ran Disk Management? I just did this on Windows 7 Pro. My Garmin watch was assigned to H. I used Disk Management to change it to W. I ejected the drive and plugged a flash drive into the same USB port and it was assigned drive H. I then ejected the Flash drive and plugged the Garmin watch back into the same USB port and now it came back as drive W.

March 20, 2016 at 10:56 pm in reply to: Windows 10 renaming drives and confusing Sony VegasI don’t have Windows 10, but it probably works the same. You need to find the Disk Management tool. You can find it if you go to Control Panel and search for “Disk Manage”. You can also get there if you can Right Click on My Computer and choose Manage. Once you get to that tool, you will see all the drives listed. Right click on one and assign it the specific drive letter you want to use. You could change it from the assigned letter to another unused letter.

That is puzzling. I would double check all the properties of that DVDA project or create a brand new one and check that I had the right BD media specified under properties. To see if it is a weird edge case with Sony burning that particular project, since you know it works on the older project, I would have Sony DVDA just create the iso file and use something like ImgBurn to write the iso file to the BD media. I usually create menus in DVDA. It might be worth getting a rewritable BD media to do all this testing.

February 18, 2016 at 11:18 pm in reply to: Is there an efficient way of moving all your clips back when adding somethingYou can either turn on auto ripple or right click the first clip and choose “Select Events to End”.
Auto Ripple has a few options, that can easily mess you up if you are not careful, so find some time to play with it a bit and many people try to get in the habit of turning it off when not using it.

January 14, 2016 at 10:15 pm in reply to: Sony Vegas Pro 11 crashes with Windows 10 updateIf it were me, I would roll back to Windows 8 then. Sony Vegas Pro 11 should work with Windows 10, but the fact that it took a day to get email working, which is a trivial application to support is an indication that the upgrade of the OS had some issues that will keep haunting you. Technically it sounds like Vegas is running, but it is likely a driver issue causing the crash. For me there was no compelling reason to upgrade a working system to Windows 10 as most of the new features are to benefit Microsoft rather than myself. The license agreement stated I could no longer connect to my desktop from an RDP client on the iPhone and that I could only connect once every 90 days remotely, otherwise I should own Windows Server. I would run Windows 10 on a new system or on a system I was already troubleshooting problems on.
If you insist on staying on Windows 10, then I recommend checking the Sony support site for how to do a clean uninstall/reinstall like mentioned here:
https://www.custcenter.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/5151/~/clean-uninstall-and-reinstall-instructions-for-windows-8-%2F-8.1You may need to turn off GPU acceleration if there are video driver issues with Windows 10. Windows 10 preview actually had some major issues with NVidia that they later corrected. The main problem in Windows 10 is you cannot control the updates and your system may update while working on a project and that may cause you to miss a deadline with the project as Microsoft and the video card vendor figure things out. I’m not saying that you should never apply updates, but if you had a deadline of tomorrow, you would like to have the freedom to not perform the update until the weekend.
