Yes it does. Drag your video files into Vegas, select them all and right click. Select 'Create Video Proxy', let it do its work and see how it goes from there.

OK so I invested in a gold plan over at Airdata to take a peek at the battery stats. Battery 2 was flagging way more deviations. Guess which battery was in use on the day? :/ Further evidence of a possible cause? Image link as it does not want to show here: Battery 2 RIP
