"I should have articulated; "If you're using an AVCHD camcorder, " you can always tell a forum newbie on his first posting ;-)

I usually output the final product to the web. The camera I use is an Sony HDR-SR8 which records to the hard drive. More info for this camera can be found at: http://esupport.sony.com/US/perl/model-home.pl?mdl=HDRSR8&LOC=3 and http://esupport.sony.com/US/perl/model-home.pl?mdl=HDRSR8 What is the problem you are experiencing or have a question on?

I don't think he is needing help :)

I think he is wanting those who have these type cams to send him a PM (via his user name- click it). No worries, it is safe. He is not new here :)

Sorry if my comment was taken as a slight and I do apologize for it. I use the camera only for work as a contractor and usually get asked about it in that line of questioning. I will drop Spot a line at his e-mail since I would like to pick his brain on a couple of things about Vegas Pro 8 and cameras to use for it. Thanks.

I didn't take it as a slight. Now Apit on the other hand :-)

I have a little mini AVCHDD it's an HDR-SR1 that I use for certain things. I am using Vegas 8 as I thought the supposed additional MTS file support would help. Crash after crash is what I am getting.

Even if I can open the darn files and bring them in, when I go to open the project again it crashes. I get versions of the following, I click ok and it closes. If you have a work around I'd love to hear it. I'm having a devil of a time.

Thanks,
Laura

"Now Apit on the other hand :-)" Yea, that's us oldies helping the newbie DSE about cameras............ next time, newbie DSE will probably be asking about how to use VEGAS for the first time. ;-)

I already know how to use Vegas for the first time. It's the SECOND time I'm struggling with. ;-)

Doug - you're such as n00b! lol. Hats off to Richmond / Cedric for coming in and trying to be helpful on his first postings!

Let's hope he comes back to the forums and stays around. (hi and welcome etc)
