Anyone ever run into this issue?
When using Vegas and after plopping multiple media into the media bin, the program halts for close to 30 seconds before resuming? This appears to be particularly common when switching apps (like to Sound Forge, for instance) and returning to Vegas. The hourglass will appear and it's unresponsive, almost like the computer has locked up, although every other application continues to run perfectly.
I found an inkling of info on this issue on the creative cow forum, but there were no answers other than musings about F5 to rebuild audio peaks.
Some users speculated that Vegas has a difficult time dealing with clips that have different audio sampling rates in the media pool.
This is somewhat frustrating for me, as my current project is comprised of clips from my Panasonic DV cam and also my Olympus digital camera... (720x480x24 vs. 320x240 clips at 48,000Hz and 8,000Hz respectively)
Are there any known work-arounds for this?
Post-edit:
I should add that I use a firewire hard drive for my storage and have Vegas installed on a separate disk.
I've never had any issues in the past with write-errors and have been running a hell of a lot of disk repair and check-up utilities to ensure my firewire drive's integrity, with no luck in turning up anything concrete. The only thing I can think of is the sampling rate causing the problems.
