Yet another dumb render question from me…

[Bob Moyer]

OK, I managed to find a BD-RE disc and successfully burned the two different renders (Mpeg2 & Sony AVC)in the same DAR project. To my ‘old’ eyes, they both look the same.

As they should. 25Mbps MPEG2 is about the same quality as 16Mbps AVCHD. The difference is in the file size. You can fit more AVCHD on a Blu-ray than MPEG2 because the files are smaller.

Thank you John for your reply. If I may ask you an additional question: this veg file contained some SD clips along with AVCHD clips (majority). It was mentioned in another thread I started that I could modify the Sony AVC render to 26Mbps. When I attempted to render this VegasPro 10 gave an error msg. to the extent that an ‘unknown’ error occurred. Is this due to the SD clips or AVCHD clips that I used or the fact that I combined the two? Hope you can help.

Thanks,
Bob

No, it may be due to you using a very old version of Vegas Pro. Did someone say that the Sony AVC encoder in Vegas Pro 10.0 can create a 26Mbps stream? I’m guessing the limit may have been was increased in later releases.

John,

I am using VegasPro10e and with the “=AVCHD 1920×1080-60i” template, the max bit rate in the drop-down box (custom option) for the Sony AVC/MVC is 16Mbps. However, with the “=Blu-ray 1920×1080-60i” template the drop=down box (custom option) the default is 16Mbps but it offers a selection of up to 26Mbps. This last one is the one I used (tried to use and got the error msg). I finally just used the first template shown above.

In Vegas Pro 12.0 the Sony AVC Internet 1920×1080-30p template allows for 26Mbps and the AVCHD template goes up to 22Mbps.

Yea, they are both about the same. I use Sony AVC for Blu-ray and MainConcept AVC for Internet delivery but you could use either one.
