I'd like to thank everyone in this post especially Johnboy for his advice, but oddly enough, what I ended up doing was being patient and only clicking the render button one extra time in impatience/frustration. No freeze-up, but it's STILL rendering at work, which means I don't have any work to do over the weekend, because my external drive is still at work!</p> <p>Now I can sit in peace in my own home and watch the Olympics in Beijing (including the awesome 2008 drummers) and know that I won gold in my event - Man vs. Software.</p> <p>THANKYOUVERYMUCH for all your support!</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/chriscolorado-vs-pinnacle-studio-any-tips#post-39051 Thu, 07 Aug 2008 07:51:34 +0000 film814 39051@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>I feel for you!  My life was desperately entrapped by the menacing Pinnacle Studio before I learned Avid and Vegas.  You could just tell your boss to forget.........Nevermind, you might lose your job.  Good luck!</p> <p>Jeremy</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/chriscolorado-vs-pinnacle-studio-any-tips#post-39046 Wed, 06 Aug 2008 19:07:12 +0000 chrisColorado 39046@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>thanks, john</p> <p> i'll take a look. any others?</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/chriscolorado-vs-pinnacle-studio-any-tips#post-39043 Wed, 06 Aug 2008 17:15:34 +0000 Johnboy 39043@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Chris, why not stay in vegas, create some proxies to edit by and then replace the proxies with the mts files when rendering out? take a look at a program called gearshift from vasst.com, you'll be glad you did.</p> <p>John</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/chriscolorado-vs-pinnacle-studio-any-tips#post-39038 Wed, 06 Aug 2008 16:25:47 +0000 Aspyrider 39038@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Chris...</p> <p>My sympathies.</p> <p>:-)</p> <p>J.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/chriscolorado-vs-pinnacle-studio-any-tips#post-39035 Wed, 06 Aug 2008 15:42:08 +0000 chrisColorado 39035@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Yes, you read that right. I'm trying to use pinnacle studio - keyword: trying. Am I nuts? No, just desperate.</p> <p>Back before my boss saw the light and got Sony Vegas, he had the whole pinnacle shebang - video box, software, cables, etc. and somehow this footage he wants edited is in what seems to be pinnacle's .MTS video format.</p> <p>Now, I'm trying to rig pinnacle long enough to render out this footage as an AVI so the vegas experience will be an absolute breeze. Why don't i just import the .MTS into Vegas as is? Don't even ask...</p> <p><strong>So, any tips on keeping pinnacle unfrozen long enough to render out this critical footage? Thanks in advance. </strong></p> <p>For the record, I heartily agree with anything negative anyone's said about this piece of junk program. It's nothing more than an upscale version of Windows Movie Maker.</p>
