properties are set to 24p or if you selected the
removal when opening 24p DV check box on the General tab of the Preferences dialog. Use the
template if you intend to use the file on the Vegas timeline. This feature is available only in the full version of Vegas software.
Note: If you cleared the Allow pulldown removal when opening 24p DV check box before adding your media and your project properties are not set to 24p, your 24p video is read as

As a default, these preview files are saved when a project is closed. To delete these files when you close the project, from the Options menu, choose Preferences and, on the General tab, clear the Save active previews on project close check box.
You can set the location of these preview files by clicking the Project Video Properties button (
) and choosing a Prerendered files folder in the Project Properties dialog. Ideally, this folder should be on a different physical drive from where Windows is installed. You can delete prerendered preview files from your hard disk by choosing Clean Up Prerendered Video from the Tools menu.
