VS10 Smart Render
Has anyone tested the 'smart render' function on VS 10 and can you confirm that it works without losing audio sync on the burn? I'm upgrading from VS8 to VS10, and even though I understand that SR worked in VS9, with Ulead, it wouldn't surprise me at all that it doesn't work again in VS10.

I've used VS 7 through VS 10, and I have never found smart render to be reliably useful for anything other than trimming a single piece of video out of a larger chunk. Using it to edit together several pieces or any similar editing type function has been haphazard, and fails most of the time. I am working with MPEG captures almost exclusively, so I'll allow that the experience could be completely different with AVI, DV, etc.
My experiene exactly, newmediallc. With Smart Render, I can only speak for VS7 and VS8 using MPEG 2 720 x 480 NTSC, but the smartest thing to do with Smart Render in those versions was to be smart enough not to use it. Users of VS9 claim that it worked in that version though. My VS10 arrives in two days, I don't think I'll be trying the Smart Render feature though.

I used VS9 for a while, and I would say that SmartRender worked better in that version than in 7 or 8, which is still to say that reliability and stability still were not good enough for production use. VS10 seems to have taken a couple of steps backward - a simple video-trimming test with SmartRender in that version hung the program immediately.
