    I’m using vegas 8.0 pro when veiwing rendered video it lookes great. But when I move it into dvd architect and render it,it has a major flicker. My video is about 70 min and maybe 1/3 of it is flickering. When rendering in vegas i used windows media. Architect i used the default settings. It flickers with both still shot and video. could you help me with this.

    If you are going to a dvd with this why did you render it as WMP in Vegas? DVD is MPEG2 -always-. Your best flow is to render in Vegas as Mainconcept DVDA MPEG2 with no audio. Then render again the audio only as AC3. Then drag those files into DVDA. At 70 min DVDA will probably not have to rerender. I think that your quality issue stems from too much rendering!

    The FREE DVD Prep tool from VASST will set the correct rendering parameters from within Vegas *every* time, and includes the AC3 file to the same folder, so…it becomes a one-button render, with everything correctly placed.

    If you render in Vegas to Main Concept DVDA compliant MPEG2 video stream and audio to AC3 then DVDA should not have to rerender it. For a 70 min video you should be able to use 8,000 000 CBR setting but its always good to check with a bit rate calculator when you start to get over an hour.

    DVDA will rerender if your video is too long to fit, or if it isn’t DVDA compliant. This is the way to keep the best quality.
