Edward - I think - produced an autosave script for Vegas 8. Has one be produced for V9 yet? I tried to install v1.1 and it didn't recognise v9

Just install Excalibur 6. The most current version is installed when Excalibur is installed (and is newer than the version you're trying to install). Project Inspector installs with Excalibur as well.

Even if you don't want Excalibur, Auto Save and Project Inspector will continue to work once Excalibur expires. Those two are free to use - I just simplified installation by installing all at once.
