Can't rename files after capture
Keep getting the message that my file is in use by another application when I try to rename the clips after capture. Won't let me rename them. In this case, I'm capturing VHS material via a firewire deck conversion. I've closed the capture application but this issue still persists.

Have you tried renaming them in the capture app via the "post capture dialog box"? Are you trying to rename them via the explorer pane or in the project media pane? (I have had good results renaming in the project media pane.) Are you trying to rename the files before the peaks are built or after?

In my case rebooting the machine fixes the problem and I continue. |

I agree and would think rebooting should allow you to move forward, I have the issue from time to time in other apps, they just don't want to let go.

thx to all for the replys
Seems to happen to the last clip I capture. Then, mysteriously, after doing other things in Vegas, I'm able to rename the clip. Trying to rename in the project media tab Using non-controllable device capture so advanced capture window seems unavailable to name ahead of time. Don't think "building peaks" is applicable cause I'm working in DV not HDV. Am I wrong? Re-booting seems a little extreme since I capture a lot. This shouldn't be a requirement to use this program? Nothing else is running cept' Vegas. It seems that the capture program is hanging up or something even though i close it. Using Windows Vista Vegas 8 |

DV files "build peaks" too. If you tried to rename it while peaks were being built, I can see where it would not let you. It would make sense being the last file as well.

You should see a notice in the status bar (lower left of vegas window) indicating import of the clips (building peaks) into vegas. I have had issues before with the capture interface hanging up after prolonged captures. CTRL-ALT-DEL and forcing the capture to shutdown usually works too. Also if you are capturing DV then under preferences (options -> Preferences -> Capture tab) select the "display post capture dialog box after capturing video." If you capture manually in the capture (not advance capture) mode than you will get a pop-up at the end that allows you to rename each file by right clicking or change the subname by selecting rename all. Works whether you have device control or not.
