Which is?
Reason I ask is I've had issues with this.

It is a feature included in VP9 that wasn't in VP8. It's to do with the EX1/EX3's MP4 container with mpeg2 needs to be rewrapped in MXF. Not personally having the camera, I'm sure you understand this?

Vegas Pro 9 can read the MP4 file from the EX3 directly whereas Vegas Pro 8 needed the MP4 rewrapped into MXF.

"Capture" threw me.

The files copied by V9 can be used in V8, they just need to be rewrapped using the Clipbrowser. The result of doing the rewrap might not be the same as what you get with V9.

The EX cameras break long recordings into chunks. The rewrap to MXF joins the chunks. V9 doesn't do any joining so a long recording ends up as several events on the T/L.
