[quote user="Ric"]I am using the latest version 5.03.07 it works fine for my needs.[/quote]Hi Ric: If you have the time could you try to edit something in HD (Maybe smoothing HDV ?) and tell me if you can import, edit, apply effects and export on your cool Sony Vaio Laptop PC, then PM me with the results ?

[quote user="luca.mg"]I can have a sound to alert me when a render completes, but what is the point if I can't leave the app?[/quote]Hi Luca: I have the same experience. I could be working in other apps while the slow boat to Antarctica renders go down. Mark J.
