Been using Vegas for about 2.5 years now and have yet to figure out how to deal with this issue. If I have a complecated project (lots of fx, tracks, etc) I can't get a real preview, even with a RAM render or the shift-m render. Even with shift-m renders there's always something like a pause first then choppy playback that's not good enough to get an idea for what's happening. This problem has existed when using Vegas 4-6 and has been an issue since I first started using Vegas (and my hard drives were much more empty).
My friend uses FCP and even on an underpowered computer once you render a section you can get playback on it w/o the choppy stuff that Vegas exhibits on my computer.
So, now I'm trying to isolate my previewing issues to see if this is just how Vegas works or if the problem lies with my computer (a 3 year old p4 2.4 with seperate hard drives for media). Does anyone else have this problem? Thanks ahead of time for any help!
