It's not even a price issue, because one studio that edits movies for Netflix even has told me the same thing. Saying that, this is how I encountered the problem in the first place - all the freelance studios that I work with (and I contacted several others to help me with different aspects of my projects) have all told me that they've standardised on V17 primarily to be able to share project files amongst themselves. Copying timelines or EDLs is pointless because you can't bring the modifications back into the timeline in the same way without losing all the fine edits (and FX and envelopes, etc.)ĭerek, I also understand that there's no commercial incentive to support backwards compatibility - it's more lucrative to force everyone to upgrade to the latest version and not settle comfortably with a previous (and often more stable) version. What's the point of upgrading or buying a subscription in this case? If there's any chance that I might have to collaborate with someone else, I may have to downgrade my version of VP to v15 or v17. I also have extra Steam licenses and many of the other freelancers have these too.Īnd I wouldn't class myself as a heavy, pro or power user. Same when I sent the files to a professional editor to treat some audio for me using a product that I don't have a license for. I have another computer with a v17 license, but when I bring in a freelancer to help with a project, I have to give up my computer coz the project files don't open on that computer. I seem to be the only person in our extended group that has Vegas 365, and therefore v19.
With so many different versions in circulation nowadays (usually from about v15 to v19), it's actually impossible for me to collaborate on projects with anyone else. How do I submit this as a feature request? OK, it's obvious now that there is no solution.
