Veg Pro 9 Autosave at DVinfo.net

Do we have any control over how often Vegas autosaves ?

I find it rather annoying that when it crashes, & you revert to the auto saved version on a re-boot, you find it was saved quite a while ago & you have to re-do several edits.

As usual, Vegas Help was quite useless, after typing for it to search on "Autosave" it came up "No topics found" !!

Ron, install Excalibur 6 and use the included FREE "Auto Save" custom command. You don't have to pay for Excalibur to use Auto Save. After installing Excalibur, go to Tools - Custom Command - Auto Save. This is a much more powerful autosaving routine than you will find natively in Vegas.

Thank you very much again, Edward.
I have now done this - (actually it was under Tools/Extensions), so hopefully this will eliminate another annoyance.
