Project Markers Not Saving?

This is kind of a mixed Vegas/DVDA question. I've got a nearly two hour long project that has around fifty markers in it that are the chapters, rendered it as a MPEG-2 using DVD Architect24p NTSC Widescreen video stream. Defiantly had "Save project markers in media file" checked. Brought the vid into DVDA and the chapters aren't showing up at all besides the one lone default 1: Scene/Chapter. Not an easy one to go in and add all manually, anyone know what I might have missed? Tried clicking the little "Load Markers" icon and nothing happened. I should also add that when I bring the rendered video by itself into Vegas the markers also do not show up. Double checked the original project, they're all there and as I said, confidant that the "Save project markers in media file" was checked. I went render it again just to see and all the render settings were as they should be just as they were when I rendered it yesterday.

Another weird thing is that I cannot change the project properties to anything but 29.97 for the frame rate even though the video is 24p.

Up against a deadline so would appreciate any guidance on this one. This is not a short render so hoping there's some way around this.

Did you happen to delete the .sfk file?

Steve, I think you meant the .sfl file as that's the one with the marker info.

Hi,
you can create DVD Architect chapters without additional rendering. Vegasaur Markers tool will do it for you. You can download it and freely use for 30 days. Good luck!

You nailed it, SFL file was the issue. I had rendered to one drive, than copied that file over and neglected to bring that along.

Thanks!
