    Perfect man. You understood me. I was looking for some setting in the “generated media”, but it’s right-click > switches. Thanks.

    Well, as I said, I’m looking for templates. Yes, lower-third (bottom).

    I’ve been using a slide-in gradient which is pretty cool, but I’m looking for something a bit more professional. Not necessarily flashy, but newscast style flyins with perhaps a bit more flare, but not too much.

    See 3 minutes into this video. Not exactly what I’m looking for (a bit too flashy.). I’m not 100% sure what I’m looking for yet. I know when I’ll see it though. Thought there might be some site or pack with a bunch to choose from.

    Also, thank you for the suggestions regarding the packs. I will take a look at those.

    Yes, exactly, that is what I meant. Thank you.

    What do you think about this codec regarding quality, speed and compatibility with YouTube (in terms of YouTube re-rendering and end result quality) vs Sony’s default.. Main Concept

    Thanks

    I hear you man, but good still cameras have AE lock during video as well and some amazing quality in a very portable package. Generally the sensor is larger too..

    The Sony RX100 Mark 3 is amazing. It uses full 20mp readout on a 1″ sensor when shooting video. To use DPreviews phrasing… “it’s a game changer”. Dusting even full frame cameras. It should blow any low-mid (<$1500) camcorder out of the water regarding video quality… Most camcorders in the mid-range shoot with 2mp and on comparatively puny sensors. Though sensor size not such a big deal if not shooting in low light/indoors. Of course the RX100m3 camera is unusual in the camera world in regards to using full sensor readout.

    Obviously there are other things to consider… One deal-breaker could be there’s no mic input. Image stabilization probably significantly handicapped compared to a decent camcorder…generally shorter battery life…significantly less zoom (with pocketable cameras)…But depending on need, these things could be unimportant…For my use, none of these things are important.

    The big plus with cameras is how portable they are. I could comfortably put the RX100 in my shorts pocket.

    The video quality out of my Canon S120 is excellent. It’s able to shoot 1080p60, but battery life not so hot and the main deal killer – no AE lock… So back to the drawing board. The RX100 M3 is $900… So not quick to jump on it. The S120’s other plus is it shoots 30p and 60p.

    I’m in Thailand, so all the cameras here are 25/50p. Which is not what I’m looking for (want 30p)….Except for a few world cameras that can switch between 25 and 30 (RX100m2 and m3 can do this)

    Hmm… I think I got this figured out. More or less. It seems insert at point by clicking the top left folder icon and dragging and dropping and CTRL-V pasting all did different things. In the end, I opened it on another track without ripple, then split all tracks where it was intended to insert and then cut an CTRL-V into the spot.

  • Ok excellent. What about this “allow source to change frame rate”. It seems like a strange setting. If I want it to just stay at what it came in as, should this be ticked or no? Regards…

    It’s 1080p30. Project settings are same as the media 1080p30. He are the render settings…

    With 720p rendering it’s significantly better (estimated 1.5hr. Didn’t complete the render though. I was just checking.)

    I noticed the text effects slow things considerably as well. I tried running Vegas with 335m engaged instead of integrated and it kept crashing during the render.

    Just a question, it seems x264 isn’t usable with Vegas, but is it faster? I used to use a program called Videopad and I seem to remember it took just a few minutes to render 20 min of video with that codec…I could be remembering incorrectly, but it certainly didn’t take 1.5 hours to render 15min…

    Yea. Big mistake. Could have sworn it had it. While it does have the feature, it’s only useable with still shots…not possible with video.

    August 17, 2014 at 5:18 pm in reply to: Small space at the end and beginning of a layer

    It’s a graduated shade using tracking to show on only the bottom and pan to pull it in and out. With a layer of text over it. It’s the graduated shade that isn’t reaching all the way across…And have had to set it to 1945 instead of 1920.

    There are so many different parts to this little 15 minute video, but it’s got that little space all the way across. Both tracks are set to 1080×1920… It’s quite strange…I think for now I’ll just make it 1945 rather than check all 100 segments and effects. There are bigger fish to fry and way way behind. Just thought maybe there was some simple setting I was missing…
