Help!
I'm new to NLE, and just got Vegas. Trying to learn it from the manual and it's driving me crazy. I'm not a techie, learn better in a classroom rather than following a manual. Anyone have any idea what DVD tutorial is the best one out there for beginners? Is it worth the price?
Better yet, are there any Vegas users out there in the Orlando area that teach Vegas?
I appreciate all advice....thanks for helping this rookie.

Check out http://www.vasst.com/search.aspx?for=1&entity=16&category=Training+Video&sort=priority
They are a bit overkill on how much they charge so maybe just hang out here and ask questions

What he said.
You will find Vegas to be very frindly. You won't be dissapointed in your choice.
Second best investment I ever made software wise, and easily the best spent 400 bucks ever.
Ask yer questions.

thanks for posting that movielibrary link.
I just finished the the Sony Vegas seminar series--- it didnt go into as many aspects such as color correcting, rendering, etc, that your link does.... and I paid $95 for it . Your link makes a nice supplement. Just what I needed. Thanks again for posting.

Open the capture program. Go to Options - Preferences in the capture program. Now go to the "disk management" tab and add your desired capture location. Next delete the "default" capture location. Now you'll be capturing to your desired folder.
