  • Can I render straight from HDV intermediary files?

    If I re-render my project’s m2t files in Vegas as HDV intermediary files (no, my Cineform NEO HD still doesn’t get through a whole m2t conversion – long, ongoing story), should I then be able to render my project with those files directly to HD, or do I HAVE to replace them with the original m2t’s?

    Yes you can render from Cineform avi. The main reason for Cineform is it will still look good after multiple renders or Vegas handles these files much faster than m2t. So if your using multiple video tracks like for pictures in picture or using a lot of video effects, It’s good to convert the m2t files to Cineform first and render to your finished file from these files. If your just trimming m2t files, there is no need to convert to cineform. Vegas 7 and up will handle native m2t pretty well now wiith a fast computer. Hope this helps
