Create peak files in a different path (Pro 8)
How do you configure Vegas to use a different path when creating peak files (.svk)? Right now it uses the same path as the media file itself, which causes a lot of seeks and reduced performance compared to a sequential operation to a second scratch or project array.

You don't. They're always created in the same folder as the original media.

Thanks.
Are there any other programs that can create Vegas-compatible peak files? |

Why? Vegas would just create them in the same folder as the original media again.

I don't want to try to specify all the functions I have noticed this but I have noticed that there are a number of times when Vegas was using the same drive for I/O for a number of things it does when it would be much more efficient if it used a separate drive. I've even seen it use the C: drive at times even though I chose a different drive for temp files. After rendering an hours worth of video I noticed that Vegas is copying a file on the same drive. So even at 100% there is still a few more minutes before it is done. I guess one could get a raid 0 and solve at least part of the problem but I do not want to take a chance with a raid 0 system. The goal is to make Vegas use of hard drives as efficient as possible. Sorry to say but right now it isn't. :( Another thing to add and a little bit off topic is a much more efficient way of rendering *.wmv files. I don't know what the process is but it is very inefficient. Don't get me wrong, in spite of some issues, I still love Vegas! Danny Fye www.vidmus.com/scolvs
