Hi,

This is my first post here so if there’s a better way to submit a feature request please let me know.

First of all, thank you for developing Vegas. I've enjoyed using it for various projects and it's great to see its future is in good hands.

So here goes the request: while importing an EDL in Vegas Pro 14, it’s taken me a long time to relink all media files. They were located in various subdirs and that resulted in plenty of manual work. The whole process could’ve taken 5 seconds by automating just a few things.

So please:

- Add the option (to be confirmed by the user) to automatically look for media in subdirectories of a location selected by the user (or that could be automatically incorporated after the user helps locate a file). Another possibility could be to allow us to choose a number of directories where Vegas could search, along with their respective subdirs.

- Add the option to allow us to set a wildcard in some part of the filenames to speed up finding files (to affect all files being looked for relinking). Could be after the nth character (starting from beginning or end), or after a dot. When one receives an EDL, sometimes the original filenames have been modified and are sent back with an additional “.mov”, “.mp4” (or other endings) appended. This slows down the process a lot. (Regexps would be welcome, too, if they happen to be easy to implement.)

In both of the above cases, the system could choose the file and incorporate it automatically as a replacement if only one acceptable file has been found. If two or more files are found that satisfy the chosen conditions, it could be left to the user to pick the right one. The idea is to reduce the amount of manual work to a minimum.

Thank you for listening.
