Markers truncated to 39 characters ?

When creating a Scene Selection menu, it seems that DVDA is only using the first 39 characters from the Vegas marker. Is this documented anywhere ? Anyone else seeing this or not seeing this ?

Using DVDA2a and Vegas5b

Same thing for me. Besides when importing markers whose names have accents (é è à) it won't work.

Probably a Vegas limitation. See:

Truncated VV4 Marker Text

I looked at at the .sfl file and it appears that the full marker string is in that file..so I'm guessing it's a DVDA limitation.

Seems unnecessary to me...makes my life a little harder.

BTW, thanks for responding guys. I would have though Sony would have chimed in, since this is probably a quick check in the code for some constant in the import markers code (hey Sony, while you're in there...up it to 100 .. and document it :)
