Here I go, again... All (that was important to me - the scene
splitting function still didn't work well, but HDVSplit took care
of that) seemed well with Sony Vegas Pro 8 with the new
(beta) .dll installed (no more red/black frames or crashes), but
I just tried saving five .m2t files as a single file (from one drive
to another, no recompression needed anywhere) using two
combinations of drives and four times I got a Windows
"vegas80.exe fault, program must close" message at 55%
completion (at 19 1/4 minutes) of the save of the 35 minute
video. This nonsense kinda makes me just want to throw the
whole works in the lake. I guess I will need to reinstall Ulead
VideoStudio to complete this project - and this is getting
quite ridiculous!

David,

Unlike much (if not most of) the video editing software I own and use,
Vegas
8 Pro is substantially supported by their developer, Sony, and their team
in
Madison Wisconsin is absolutely first rate. The forum they provide also
has
tons of experienced users.

Just as I previously suggested when the red/black frame issue had you "at
your wit's end!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!", might I again suggest that you contact
Sony
directly as a registered owner seeking support as well as post a request
for
help in their forum. In my nearly 5 years of HDV editing with Vegas, I
have
contacted them several times, and also posed Canon HV20 compatibility
issues
to them, all of which they handled promptly and cheerfully. It is my
opinion
that they are extremely anxious to have a product which works well, and do
what they can to provide adequate support. Unlike Ulead, Cyberlink, Nero,
and Pinnacle, all of whom provide crappy off-shore support, you should be
able to get some relief here.

Good luck!

Smarty

Thanks. I had already posted the above on the Vegas forum,
and added my computer info to my Sony account - but a direct
Sony contact is also a good idea. Sometimes, though, it is just
easier to use workarounds, especially if they are convenient to
use and reliable, like HDVSplit (and likely VideoStudio, at this
point...), rather than to try continually to debug buggy software...
