Default Temporary rendering file location in Sony Vegas 5


Hi,

A friend of mine is using vegas 5 for editing his DV tapes. He is capturing
the video, editing and then (hopefully!) printing back to DV tape.

He has a problem: during the print to tape step, vegas creates a large
pre-render file under C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application
Data\Sony\Vegas\5\ (or something like that). Unfortunately, he does not
have much space on his C partition and it fails when the partition has
filled with the temporary files! The setting for captured video (or it may
be called something like temporary files?) is set to another partition
which has many GB free but this pre-rendering step for print to tape still
uses the directory on C!

We found the directory in the registry and set it to point at a directory on
the larger partition but Vegas changed it back to the default when we ran
it!

:-(

Is there any way of changing this, or is it a case of trying to free up some
space on C (not going to be fun)?!

Cheers,

Laz

Ahhhh...I thought I'd had a good look round at all of the options but
obviously not!
