Hi
Excalibur and Ultimate S (plugins) also have the ability to automatically do photo montages as well and a lot easier if you have a bunch of stills you want to animate.Ultimae-S at

[Jim Heffinger] ” the video is too larger to fit on a DVD as AVI what format should I choose to get the best results?”
Are you saying that you actually burn AVI onto a DVD? I don’t understand. To render files for a DVD requires MPEG-2 video stream and an audio stream in order to make it playable on a set top DVD poayer. (however lately some will play DivX format to).
What I used to od was if a video was 90 minutes of less, render it myself in Vegas, then bring the files into DVDA. If 2 hrs, I would render to AVI and let DVDA figure it out. But lately with Vegas 7 and 8 Pro I just use a bitrate calculator and do the MPEG rendering in Vegas.
I hope I understood you correctly?

Hi Anthony
Photos were nice but I’d like to see 3;16 zoomed in to almost frame level and centered in the photo. If it is a dropped frame, you’ll see the timeline view get darker, then go black for a frame or 2 then get lighter again.
Another thought, since you got that video off the net was maybe the person who made the video intended for that blackout. Does it seperate scenes maybe? I do a fade to black sometimes for a major scene change instead of a transistion. When I do that, I use a 1 sec fade at the end/beginning of the clips and maybe a 2 second black generated media.

Kind of sounds to me like it just might be some dropped frames in that video somewhere. I rarely get dropped frames on capture but it the rare case I do I just cut them out. To find them you’ll have to zoom in on the timeline so you see 1 frame at a time, then advance using the arrow keys until the video goes black. Then you’ll be able to see exactly what’s going on at that point.
You said you’re using video you got from the web? Did they play okay before you got them into Vegas?

Hi
Are you looking for programs like AE or plug-in’s or both? Some really nice plugin’s that work great with Vegas that I use are the Digital Juice products and they’re having some great sales now. Talk about giving your videos that “extra Jaz”.Vasst’s Ultimate S and they also have what they call Graf Paks (lower thirds & the like) is also a great plugin.
There’s quite a few others too like Digital Hotcakes and Art Beats but I think for what you want to do the DJ stuff is great for the pizazz you’re looking for.

Hi
Yes, welcome to the Sony Vegas Forum.As far as encoding for You Tube, here’s a link to a You Tube video that explains exactly how to do that

Hi
I also have a VX2000 camera and have only had a problem once like that. I put in a new firewire card and it solved the problem.So it could possibly be a bad cable or card. Also do you have access to another camera you an try?

Hi
In addition to Terry’s suggestions above. I’d lilke to add a few things.
A. Try to use all PNG’s and not a mix of file formats.
B. For pan/crop size all the photos the same 1440 x 960. This seems to be an optimum size for Vegas.
C. and probably most important as Terry Says, if Vegas freezes at the same place all the time, That photo is corrupted. I’ve had it happen to me. Take out that photo and see what happens.Hope this helps.
