    High Definition Intermediary

    Posted by Don Hutcheson on March 4, 2009 at 10:51 pm

    Hello,

    I am about to begin editing Sony HVR-Z1U footage into Vegas Pro 8. Do I need a High Definition Intermediary? My research says Vegas 8 has those codecs already. Can Vegas import and convert to a high-quality AVI file as well as convert 60p to 24p like an outboard HDI can? I will edit on a quad-core computer with 4G RAM. Do I need more than Vegas to convert incoming HD footage to just I-frames?

    Thank you,
    Don

    Vegas Pro8 and a reasonably fast computer make great companions for HDV, and you will not need an intermediary.
