Vegas Pro 11 –> FCP7…UNCOMPRESSED?

[Jeff Schroeder]

Friedrich,

You can give them an uncompresses AVI, but the might not know what to do with it. Or, you could buy quicktime pro and give them an uncompressed .mov file, which will be huge.

You might ask if they can use an Avid DNxHD file.

Vegas 11 only offer up to 3Mbps render options for QuickTime movies.
Thats not true, Vegas renders full Uncompressed Quicktime Files and
also since uncompressed files can be very large, i would recommend
you choose the Animation or Component Codec instead.

Steve, I don’t do quicktime, don’t you need the pro version?

Well, I do have QuickTime 7 Pro but regardless Vegas 11 only offers me 3Mbps max option to render QuickTime files.

A friend had ClipWrap on his laptop so I just rewrapped my HDV .m2t files into .mov and imported it into FCP7 without any issues. Literary a two minute job and a lossless video quality process.

Steve you claim that Vegas can indeed render full uncompressed QuickTime files, how? Let me just reiterate that my Vegas version is 11 not the latest 12. What is the procedure to render uncompressed HD QuickTime files?

[Friedrich Popusismi] “What is the procedure to render uncompressed HD QuickTime files?”

You need to create your own template for it. Here is an example of how to create a QuickTime DNxHD template. Uncompressed would be the same except it would not use a codec (i.e., video format = none)
