  • Editing DVD in Vegas framerate issues?

    Posted by Chad Britton on March 12, 2013 at 6:26 am

    I’m currently trying to edit DVD .vob files to make a video, but I’m running into a goofy issue with the framerate. The dvd runs at 720×480 29.97 FPS and I’ve created the project to match those settings exactly. When I drag a vob file into the timeline and hit play it runs just fine at the correct speed. However, since I’m making a music video I don’t want to use the sound from the DVD. But as soon as I mute or delete the audio file attached to the vob, the framerate goes crazy and the video plays faster than normal. I have no idea why this is happening.

    Is there a work-around I can use to edit DVD footage in Vegas? I know back in the day on Premiere I used to use AVS and create low-quality .avi files of the DVD to use while I was editng, then replace the files with the high-quality AVS version when I was ready to export. Would something like this work better in Vegas?

    You should not be editing a VOB file. You should use File | Import | DVD Camcorder Disc… and let Vegas Pro re-wrap it as an MPEG2 stream for you.

    Yes, that would be the highest quality AVCHD render type for Vegas Pro 12.0.

    [Ymri Lala] “but i dont have chance to make the same frame like original, is this render like mine uncompress video file or I have to change, rendering format”

    Your video is AVCHD. This render format is AVCHD. So they are the same. Your video is not uncompressed.

    [Ymri Lala] “and the last question, how do I render on HDV to prin on mini DV HD Tape”

    Use the MainConcept MPEG-2 format with one of the HDV 1080-60i… templates or just use the Print To Tape option in Vegas Pro and it will use the proper format.

    I just tried using the Import DVD Camcorder Disc function but received an error about halfway through. It said something along the lines of the disc being corrupt, but I know for a fact that disc is fine. Since it is a movie, would this be a problem with the copyright protection? If so is there a workaround for this? The only thing I can think of would be to rip the DVD with DVD Decrypter and then re-burn it to another disc without copyright protection and try it again.

    Could be. Vegas Pro doesn’t work on copy protected discs and you don’t have the rights to create a derivative work from copyrighted materials.

    Okay I’ll use the method I described since I don’t see why that wouldn’t work. And using copyrighted material never stopped me or anyone on youtube ^_-
