Ok, this is probably obvious, but I have to ask. I have 15 tracks of .m2t files running in InfinitiCam in Vegas 9 on a i3 laptop with 4gig RAM and the preview monitor playback is so slow, there is no way to make any realtime cuts. Am I taxing the computer too much? Can I render the m2t files to something less taxing on the CPU?

15 tracks of m2t are definitely too much.

What I typically do on my machine (I use Excalibur but the same principle should work) is render out the multi-cam view to DV. Then I put aht above the 15 tracks and mute the 15 tracks. I then use the render to make my decision list.

Interesting. I'll give it a try. Thank you.
