Glad you got it figured out. There's no need to "kill the thread". Maybe someone with a similar problem will come across it and get an idea how to solve their problem.

Good luck.

Wow, where to begin. The first thing you should know is that there could be lots of different types of video in an AVI file. I don't use DVD Ripper but you should find out what type of video it is...

Let me jump in here and offer some thoughts.

I've used Vegas since around 4.0. I guess that's about 6 or so years ago? I've lost count. I've used many USB external drives with no problems at all....

What standard def, consumer-grade cam (or pro, for that matter) comes with a 40x optical zoom? I've never heard of such a beast.

Good luck.

Agree. Twice as many LCDs to go bad.

Video cams have had flip out LCDs for many years. No multiple takes are needed to get a good self portrait. I fail to see what the advantage is to having 2...

When you say you got Vegas Pro, did you also get DVD Architect Pro? They are usually sold as a package but you may not have received or installed DVD Architect. Bottom line is that DVD...
