DV Audio

I used Microsoft Movie Maker to capture some DV AVIs Sfrom my Sony DV camera on another computer.

Now I am used to the DV standard having 48kz Uncompressed audio. But when I browsed these clips in Vegas, it identified the audio encoding as being 'DV Audio'. When I imported these clips, Vegas wanted to build a proxy audio file.

Anyone know the deal here?

Vegas isn't building a proxy, it's building a graphic file, which will be an extension of .sfk.
This happens with any audio file imported to Vegas (or Sound forge, or ACID).

Ah,
it MIGHT be building a proxy, I've had that happen. If you capture a tape with 12/32K audio in another app Vegas builds a 16/32K proxy.
Capture the same tape with Vidcap and Vidcap seems to do an on the fly conversion to 16/32K.

True. It's so rare that 12bit/32k are on my radar...I let that slip past.
