    I am using the trial version of the new blue fx stabilizer with sony vegas. I apply the stabilizer to my clip, adjust the settings and get the clip to look how I want it to. When I am done I save it then close out vegas because I am done working on it for the day. The problem is when I open it back up the next day the stablilzer does not seem to process the clip. The window that shows the chain of effects applied to the clip still show the stabilizer there and is even checked but it is like it not even on. I have to reanalyze the stabilizer to get it to work again for every clip that I used it on. Is this doing this because it is a trial? Is it something wrong with vegas? Or is this just how is works and everytime I come back to work on the video until I render it I will have to re apply the effect? Thanks for any advice.

    No, it is not because it is a trial. I am unsure why it would be doing it, though.

    Here’s my recommended procedure:

    1. Start a new project
    2. match the project settings to the settings of the clip you want stabilized
    3. Add the clip to be stabilized to the timeline
    4. Add Stabilizer and adjust settings as desired and analyze
    5. Render out a stabilized version of that clip
    6. Now edit using the stabilized clip!

    Thanks. I will try to do it that way. When I render the individual clips do I need to render them to what my final output will be or render to match the rest of the video that is on the timeline then rerender all when I am done with final editing to the final source? Hope that makes sense.

    I would render to match the source clip or to some format that’s as lossless as you want (i.e. size vs compression).
