  • HD rendering slow motion

    Posted by David Vanderveken on October 3, 2008 at 9:09 pm

    Hello,

    My problem:
    I shot a HD (720/25pN) video clip using the AG-HVX201 camera.
    I imported the clips in Vegas pro 8(0b build 217) after making avi files from the mfx files using Raylight (50i/50p, advanced settings: self contained avi). Working with these files in Vegas with Raylight set at full (blue)quality is no problem. Vegas shows the files as 1280 x 720, 25 fps. So far so good.

    however, When I render a clip to avi (Default,uncompressed, no audio)
    and play it back (in this case with windows mediaplayer 11)it shows up like a shaky slow motion clip. I’ve used different rendering settings but always get the same result. I hope this isn’t a serious issue because I’m on a tight deadline…
    Is there anyone out there who can help me with this?

    Thank you.

    Info:
    I use a quad core windows based pc with a Saphire Radeon HD graphics card.

    The surprising thing David…and from personal experience.
    The playback you are seeing from playing that clip in media player
    will not give you a true representation.
    I think that shaky slow motion effect you are seeing is a
    coming from windows media player…Try using a different medium
    to judge your finished footage properly.

    Hi Steve,

    How are you?

    I think you’re right! However I’ve played it with Quicktime player,
    better but not what it should be. I know, it is an uncompressed HD file so it is huge.

    I’ve placed a copy of the avi on my “C” hard disk (1 TB)and that seems to be better. The external HD (300 GB) it was on, only had 27 GB left. Maybe also that was the problem. Tomorrow I will buy an external 1TB HD and use that to work with High def video. I hope that
    wil solve the problem.

    Thanks again!
    David

    I am certain you will see better results…..playing
    uncompressed formats fluently requires a lot of resources.
