Vegas - Save settings problem

Kym wrote on 7/6/2003, 6:06 AM
I have just purchased Vegas 4.0 and installed it on my Windows XP-based PC.

I wish to set the default template to PAL (720 x 576) every time I run Vegas and I have attempted to do this by setting the template via File->Properties->Video and ticking the 'Start all projects with these settings' checkbox. For some reason Vegas still loads and runs with the default NTSC template. I have also noticed that setting my preferences is also ignored.

Needless to say I have uninstalled the aplication, cleared all references to Sonic Foundry and Vegas out of the Registry and re-installed the application (many times now).

I suspect that there may be something else amiss with the Registry in my machine but do not know where Vegas keeps these preference settings or whether it creates a logfile I can examine for clues.

Does anyone know where default settings and preferences are kept ? Have you encountered this type of problem before ?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Can't help. But, I too have often found that my "H:Prerenders" folder doesn't get picked up - I have to set again and again. The check box for using these settings is empty too.
