Hi,

Sorry the microphone is an audio-technica stereo condenser microphone (model: ATR6250) and my system is an iMac (model identifier: iMac11,2) running OSX with a 3.06 GHz Intel Core i3 processor.

I hope that helps

Hi,

I have had a similar problem just recently although whilst working with Final Cut, anytime the camera moved or there was sharp movement on screen these lines would appear. The problem I had was with the file type, can I ask if the files you are using, are they the original files or did you convert them into a different format to use in Sony Vegas?

I recently took some footage from my camera which was in a .mod format which was incompatible with Final Cut so I converted it to MP4 which worked but had these same lines as you have, I found instead that if I converted it to a DV format the lines would not occur.

I converted them using ffmpeg video converter, although I have used Sony Vegas in the past I don’t know if it is compatible with .dv files or similarly which filetype you should have converted your file into.

I’m sorry I can’t help you any more but hopefully I may have put you on the right track.

Regards

Daniel

I’m not famililar with the camera you are using, but I’ve used the free program MPEG Streamclip (https://www.squared5.com/). Usually I use it convert any video file not completely compatible with Vegas to something like avi (which I understand, is a larger file) which Vegas seems to handle just fine.

I’m not saying this is the most efficient method to use however I’ve found it to be fairly quick and dirty.

Hope I helped, if not maybe next time!

I haven’t tried the batch render + shutdown one, but if I know how long it will take to render (for me and my snail of a computer 10mins will take around 3-4hrs!?!) I use a freeware program called handy tweaker https://www.softpedia.com/get/Tweak/System-Tweak/Handy-Tweakers.shtml

You can set this to shutdown your computer at a specific time or after a specified length of time, the disadvantage of this is if you misjudge your render time or your computer slows down then you risk the computer shutting down mid-render.

I know its not the best way to do it and feels like hitting a nail with a sledgehammer but I found it works how I want it to, as 90% of videos I do inevitably have to render overnight.

Hope that helps

What kind of video type are you rendering to?

File types like avi will be very large, try rendering to MP4 or WMV, they generally have higher compression so smaller file size but are still good quality.
