It seems like the video passed quality control. Of course, this is subject to revision at any moment, but I’ll download one of those programs if this is still an issue. Thanks.

I didn’t use either of those programs, but I checked the field order on each event, and they all say Upper Field first.
I’m going back and forth with revisions to the video now with the broadcaster, and they’re not mentioning the field order while we work on other stuff. That could just mean they’re waiting to tell me about that last, though.

Got it working. I got my new esata cables and plugged them in and it works fine. Although, it appears that I merely didn’t push the cable in hard enough before. So I guess I have three working esata cables now. That’s more than I even know what to do with! Kid in a candy store.

I believe I have a 700w power supply.
Anyways, it works with a USB cable, so I’m waiting until my esata cables get delivered to see if the problem is my esata cable. I’m hoping it got damaged in the move.

Well, I am powering everything from one power outlet for my computer using a power strip-monitor, speakers, CPU, and two hard drives. I haven’t added any other new hardware, though.
And since the hard drive works with the USB cable, I just ordered two new esata cables in case my cable is bad.
-
Also, I checked the USB port on the enclosure, which works when connected to my computer, so at least I know the hard drive isn’t damaged.

Thanks, guys. I tried running the project with my backup hard drive off, and Vegas then changed the pathway of all my project files to the hard drive I wanted without me really doing anything.

Yes. As for backups, if your computer gets fried because of a lightning strike or surge in energy (or even an accident like the whole computer being knocked over), having your media in a physically separate backup is very important.
Not only that, but your hard drive drive performs more slowly when it’s having to read the operating system and media on the same drive.
I have two hard drives in my computer, one for Windows 7 and software installation, and another for data like Word documents. All my Vegas projects and data, though, are on external drives.

I’ve used it on multicamera projects to help synchronize my tracks.

[John Rofrano] It’s probably good to point out when you would and wouldn’t disable resample. If your pans are slow enough, you can disable resample and still get smooth motion. The problem with 24p is that it’s not a multiple of 30 so you can’t just drop every other frame and have the motion look consistent. You must drop every second frame, then every third frame, then every second frame, then every third frame, in a 2:3:2:3 pattern. This is what could make the motion seem jerky. Of course, the blending of resampling could look worse if there is high motion so it’s a judgement call. I like to keep Smart Resample on and only turn it off when it causes problems.
I wasn’t aware of that. Noted. I always did this on videos where I have a stationary camera and someone talking in front of it, so I never noticed any disruptions to motion.
