Another Question (different one)

Does anyone find the Tutorials or the "Show me how" to be useful?
I have found that the tutorials and the show me how shows you how it "should" work, not how it actually "does" work.
Does anyone have a copy of this program that actually does what the "tutorials" and the "show me how" says? That is, if you follow those instructions exactly, does it actually work? (Mine does not) Also did it work the first time or did you have to spend some time figuring it out?

Are there any books, training programs online that one can recommend?
I checked Amazon and found
http://www.amazon.com/Vegas-Pro-Editing-Workshop-Expert/dp/0240810465/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1252886239&sr=1-1

Online Classes? Paid Tech support?

Show Me How are the best implemented tutorials I have seen in any software application that I own. The last time I used them however, was with v6 and haven't used them lately in v8, so I don't know if anything has changed significantly in v9, but I doubt it.

Surely you aren't claiming that none of the Show Me How tutorials work? If you have issues with a particular one, why don't you post details here, and open a support case with SCS to let them know that something is wrong?

As a relatively new convert to SVMSPP, I went through most of the tutorials and show me hows. That, plus reading the Vegas Pro user manual really helped bring me up to speed quickly. Vegas is not necessarily the most easy to use NLE out there, but it is certainly one (if not the one) of the most powerful feature-wise.

Also try Eugenia's blog as well, search YouTube for tutorials (such as JetDV's website and newsletter (http://www.jetdv.com/vegas/forum/viewtopic.php?t=54) plus...
