Kim it’s probably a setting in your Windows Recording control – if you make sure only your mic-in channel is enabled, that’s all you should hear.

Yes, I don’t know about empty bays. I have several drawers but always have a drive in them.

So far, it seemd V6 uses dual processors much better than HT. Sony have said that they hope to improve this somewhat, but it seems the benefits of HT will remain less than dual processors.

The Vegas concept of Event is a good one, because it differentiates between the actual media clip on the hard drive and what you are doing with that material on the timeline.
As soon as you drop something on the Timeline it becomes an Event. If you split this event, you will have two events, but the original media file remains unchanged – the timeline is just a reference to the media.
If you want to apply an effect such as brightness to part of an Event, one way to do this is to split it and brighten just the part that needs it. Another way is to use keyframes, but lets keep it simple and use splits for now.
You can reunite a split event by deleting one side of the split then dragiing the edge of the other till it fills the space formerly occupied by the deleted part. If you do this, though, the effect or lack of it will now apply to the whole event, unless you use keyframes to tell Vegas which part(s) you want to be affected.
Just applying a split will not affect continuous playback.

Let us know how you go STYLZ, and don’t forget to ask any questions – one BIG plus for Vegas we forgot to mention is the Vegas community, here or at several other forums.

Another possible cause – that EIDE channel may be slave on one PV master on the other, so the jumper setting may conflict?

There are many things. Like many others, I’m an ex Premiere user, now completely a Vegas user. It’s very rare to find editors who have gone from Vegas to Premiere!
As a general comparison, Vegas is extremely fluid. By that I mean you can, say, set up a looped portion of the timeline and this will continue to play over and over while you change any properties, and you can see or hear the result of your changes as you “twiddle”, whether it’s colour correction, applying an effect, making the picture a different size or position in the frame, adding reverb or another effect to audio, superimposing a title, etc etc.
In other NLEs I’ve worked with, as soon as you go to change a setting, playback stops.
Another thing is that the controls for most of the functions you need are right there on the basic window, rather than accessed through a maze of menus.
Ther are heaps of other things, such as Vegas legendary stability, or the audio tools, generally accepted as the best of any NLE, or the built-in compositing tools.
Best way is to download the free demo and play.

Last bit first Mahesh – In DVDA you select the button, then in Button Properties there is a choice under Button Style of Text and Graphic, Text only or Graphic Only.
If you have a DVDA file, you can send it to me, I shall burn it to a DVD-RW, view it on TV and tell you if it shimmers, both with and without the new Interlace Flicker Removal feature – that will make me learn how to do it!

First of all Yoyodyne, well done – persistence rewarded!
Now I’ve discovered that V6 has changed nothing with my MPEG2 rendering position:
I can still render DVD type MPG2 without problems, but
Trying to render m2t files still crashes around 243 Mb.
This is on two different PCs both running XP SP2
So – by your “scorched earth” method, I assume you mean you re-formatted C drive?
I’m very loathe to do that unless there’s no choice – it would waste at least a day reinstalling everything. I still have no specific need to render m2t but I’d like to get this sorted before I do …
So, do you think I should try a reinstal of XP over the top of existing, or is it more likely to be Vegas related?
Thanks

I’m sure they will Mike – I had a very similar situation with Sound Forge 8 upgrade recently, and although it took a week or two, the $50 credit has appeared on my Credit Card statement.
