3 monitors question
Well, I've been running 2 monitors for quite some time with this video card, one with HDMI and the 2nd with DVI. Can't get the VGA to work and get all 3 though. So it seems I need to replace the video card. Any specific card recommendations for me? Do you suggest then that I get 2 GXT580's? Thanks !!!

export audio to Pro Tools
Thanks for the replies. Both methods take about the same amount of time, so no advantage to either for me. The "export to Pro Tools" method seems to generate lots of files in various places. "Render as" seems a bit more straightforward for this particular process.

export audio to Pro Tools
Do not need OMF. Do not need PTools--->Vegas. Raw audio Vegas--->PTools. Fastest way. Thanks.

Tip for importing MXF files (Like Canon C300)
You could try the Canon XF Utility. I use a Canon XF105, and this utility works great for importing Canon MXF into Vegas Pro 12. Canon link: http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/professional/products/professional_cameras/cinema_eos_cameras/eos_c300#DriversAndSoftware

Hard Drive Setup for Vegas and Platinum
"You should never read and write to the same drive when rendering! " Is this true? I've rendered to the same drive as the edit source (WD Black) without any issues. The CPU is the bottleneck.

rendering path
As on any tech forum, start by supplying complete and concise details and all specs of your computer, video gear, file formats, software versions etc etc etc. No one can help you when you simply throw your hands up in the air and cry out for help !!!

Importing from Canon XF300 CF card
Would that Canon Utility also work with a CF card from a XF100? Any issues working with these Canon XF100/XF300 files in Vegas? Thanks !!!

Multi-cam sync, flash, rolling shutter
"...sliding audio to match up if necessary (when mixing multiple feeds) Does that sound okay? " I'm a long-time audio pro. I think trying to combine audio tracks taken from different cameras is asking for trouble. Even if the cameras are TC synced, the audio will very likely be off enough to cause audible phasing. TC is not as tight as a digital clock sent via wordclock. I'd suggest recording all audio sources to the same machine, like maybe a 4 or 8-track Sound Devices recorder or similar. I use a portable Pro-Tools rig. All audio sources are recorded on separate tracks in Pro-Tools. The cameras record the on-camera mics - only as a reference, never to be used in the final edit. If necessary, the audio tracks can be time-aligned in Pro-Tools. I recently recorded an outdoor band gig, 4 audio tracks in Pro-Tools - 2 tracks from the PA board and my 2 mics positioned about 25 feet from the stage/PA speakers. The 2 mic tracks were late, of course, as compared to the board feed. In Pro-Tools, I zoomed-in on a solid snare hit, slid the 2 mic tracks back a little, and it sounded great. Export this time-aligned audio mix into Vegas, and go to town. My 2 cents !!!

OT: good deal on a laptop
I have this exact model laptop !!! While I have not tried Vegas on it yet, it runs Pro-Tools quite well (I'm an audio pro). I use a SIIG Express card to connect my audio interface via firewire. The Express card slot is right below the HDMI and one of the USB ports, so if you use an express card those ports might not be accessible. The i7-quad chip is zippy-fast. I uninstalled all the HP bloatware and killed all useless startup items. The 17" display is not super hi-res, but it looks good enough for me. Great deal !!!

Reviewing
I have a similar problem. In my case, the preview window tends to skip to "preview half" even though I specify preview=full/best. I reset to full, and soon it switches to half again. I always "Match Media Properties" when I create a session. Is this a preference setting issue? Vid card not keeping up issue? (VMS10, Win 7 64 Pro, i7-930, 12GB ram.) Thanks !!!

where is the master video folder located?
"where is the master video folder located?" The answer is wherever you decide to put it !!! For me, it's a matter of organization and saving where I want it to be. When I start a new VMS project, I create a folder "New VMS Project" (or similar) on my 3rd internal drive. (Drive 1=OS/programs, drive 2=Pro-Tools audio sessions, and drive 3=VMS sessions. Backups on externals.) Inside this folder "New VMS Project", I make sub-folders called "Source Media", "Renders", "Prepares", and "Old Edits". The current "VMS session" file & "DVD ARCH session" file just live inside "New VMS Project". My intention is to have ALL items for ONE session in ONE folder, well organized and easy to find. Never on the C drive, and never to the default save location. Session bkup is a simple copy of the entire folder. My 2 cents.

Canon XF100 & VMS?
I had already checked that chart, but did not see Canon's "MPEG-2 MXF File Wrapper" file format listed (although MPEG-2 is listed). So my original question is: "Can I import the Canon XF100 media files directly into VMS10, or will I need to convert them to some other format first?" Thanks !!!

Is upgrade to Platinum 12 worthwhile
Here are the specs for my video card: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102877 Running Win 7 64/Intel i7-930 quadcore/12GB ram. Will upgrading to MS 12 64-bit improve my render times? Is my video card sufficient? Currently, VMS 10 is working great, except renders are slowish. Thanks !!!

Movie Studio Platinum 12
I'm on Movie Studio Platinum 10 (Windows 7 64 Pro / 12 GB / i7-930) and it works quite well for me. If I were to upgrade to 12: 1) Will my renders run faster? 2) Will 12 open sessions from 10? These are my 2 biggest concerns. Thanks for your input !!!

Make DVD --->Not Responding
I can use the drive to play CDs and DVDs with Windows Media Player. I can also burn data DVDs using Nero. I'll try burns from other apps in a day or two as a test. At this time, however, my main problem is not being able to burn with CD Arch and DVD Arch though. Any ideas?
