I have an mpeg file that has two videos in a single file. The logical way I'd expect to divide the file would be select one of the videos in file and copy then do a file new then paste. I am amazed that no function exists to do something like this. Does someone know a trick to utlize this like the functions in sound forge??
Is the only way to do this to cut out piece thensave file under new name then open the file again and cut the opther piece then save another file?? Kind of a retarded way to do iut if so...
Any help is appreciated
Regards

Not sure exaclty what you are asking, but the s key will split selected events at the cursor.

As Gary said, split the clip, select the half you want, COPY, open another instance of Vegas, then PASTE. Or, you could split the clip, delete the half you don't want, SAVE AS a different file. Or you could create a loop region of the half you want and render it out to another file. Several ways of doing this...

Just drag the file onto the timeline twice and drag the in and out points on each.
