Vegas 13 two hour MPEG2 render creating huge file

[George Dean]

Hi Kevin,

Does your Sony camera record HD 1920×1080 (x1.0) or HDV 1440×1080 (x1.33333)? Not that it makes any difference for your issue, again just curious.

If I’m not mistaken DVDA will re-render an mp4, which will just make a bigger mess of your production, so I would stick with MPEG2 and use a bitrate calculator to get it all to fit.
