I have a P4-2.4 with 512mem. I have eliminated start-up items though MS-config. I am trying to split/edit a 2 hour (4.7G) MPEG file captured with a Dazzle card. Thrown on the timeline, the generation of video frames along the timeline takes FOREVER (20-60+ minutes, more???). Often, the computer will list Vegas as "not responding" even though it may come back later.
1. Is this normal, is this the long render times everyone is talking about on this forum? Is everyone dealing with this so much more calmly than I am?
1a. Or, as I anticipated, should I expect much quicker reaction times from Vegas?
2. What is the most efficient work around for this?
3. If this is normal, how come there is no countdown clock estimate of time remaining?
