Opening Version 12 files in Version 11.

Neat trick here... Give us all a Beta version of 12 to play with and now we need to open files we created with 12 using 11, it doesn't happen!.

"An error occurred while loading blah-blah.veg.
This file appears to have been created in a newer version of Vegas Pro, and is not supported by this version of Vegas Pro.
Please download and install the latest update of Vegas Pro."

I'm not yet ready to buy five upgrades of the program but I still need to be able to open some of these version 12 files and indeed open version 12 files created in the first upgrade, using my existing version 11 programs until they are upgraded.

Anyone got any suggestions please?

Ryadia.

I've never found any NLE's that are backwards compatible, but I haven't tried them all so I can't say definitively if there are or not.

Expecting vp11 to open vp12 projects is bit like expecting yesterday's newspaper to contain today's news.

Vegas has never been able to open veg file types from the future, but itd be handy if vegas 12 could save to old veg versions from the past.
