validation
Select this check box if you want to  be notified prior to burning a 
disc-at-once  CD if anything about your CD project is against strict 
Red Book standards.

These warnings  are not critical, and in most cases you will not write 
an unreadable disc  if you proceed. Clearing this check box will not 
suppress critical warnings   that will result in an unreadable disc.
Include  wide SCSI 
devices when searching 
for drives
Select this check box if you want to  scan for wide SCSI CD drives 
when you attempt to extract data from or  burn CDs.
When the check  box is cleared, Vegas Pro will not  scan for wide SCSI 
devices, which can increase compatibility with some  USB device 
drivers that incorrectly identify themselves as wide SCSI.
Skip  drive database;

capabilities on startup
When the check box is cleared, an internal  configuration file is used 
to determine your drive's capabilities.
If you encounter  problems burning discs, select this check box, and 
your drive will be  scanned to determine its capabilities when the 
application starts.
