  conform veg. to digi beta

  Posted by Anthony Tripe on October 29, 2007 at 6:16 am

  hi. finished cutting a 16mm film offline using dv timecoded reference media in vegas. Now I need to rent a beta deck, and storage to do an “online session” to conform my vegas veg file to the digi beta sorce masters, and spit out clean digi beta master for delivery. I need an sdi card to capture from the digi beta deck.
  Question: is there a sdi card that will work with vegas?
  Question: is Vegas able to perform this task?

  The AJA Xena is rock-solid in Vegas 8.
  There are beta drivers for Black Magic Designs Decklink and Intensity on the BMD site.

  thanks for your input dse,

  if you could bear with me there are a few things I can’t quite wrap my head around yet…

  Q: which video template in project properties should i use for digi beta?

  Q: and what is the process for capturing just the events used in my project? Would I use the info in the “Edit Details” window and capture manually (clip by clip, tape by tape” or is there a way to automate the capture.

  Q: then once i’ve captured all the targeted digi-beta source material. I would just open my veg. project file and all the new digi beta source material will open in the
  vegas time line … along with and including any transitions, and sound effects? … Is this Correct??? (it sounds to easy)

  Cause that would be great….!

  This would be my first time attempting to do this, so i’m alittle above my station here, but if it’s possible to get a clean digi-beta cut using vegas. then I’ll be using vegas for a long while.

  thank you for any input

  all the best
