Canon DSLRs have a horrible AGC so most prefer an external recorder like a Zoom H4N to capture audio, and synchronise in post by either using a clapper board or you can match the audio from the camera to sync with the H4N audio.
I would never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever recommend using DSLR audio input. Eueueugh.

It represents the rate of the video. It means, when you’ve went to shorten or expand an event, you’ve accidentally (or intentionally) been holding ‘CTRL’ which changes the function of the action. Instead of revealing more or less of the event, it actually expands what is there to produce slower or faster motion.
To correct this, Right Click and go to Properties.
Make sure your Playback Rate is set to 1.000. If it isn’t, make it ‘1’. If it is at 1 already you have nothing to worry about, just ignore the line.Setting playback rate to 1 will give you the real-time, true rate of what the video is supposed to be. If you set this to 0.5 you would get half speed slow motion and the wavy line you’re seeing would have half the frequency.
Hope this helps :)!

Yeah, anyone looking to do this with audio, download Acoustica MP3 Audio Mixer. It’s shockingly simple software, but it will do this for you if you set the envelope to ‘rate’ 🙂

Ah that’s really cool! Unfortunately it didn’t affect the audio though :(! But I think that will come in useful for something I wanted to do with a video event!
However, I did just remember a small Acoustica program I had about 4 years ago that allowed to change the velocity of audio… thanks for that Inception!
Thanks a lot for that anyway! I’ll post here if I manage to do that to the audio in this little software encase anyone else needs to know.

You could make your borders in photoshop over a transparent background and import it to Vegas. If you put this on a track, anything below it should be visible through the transparent areas of your graphic (that you can crop with Event Pan/Crop tool to your liking).
Once you’ve got the border graphic the way you want, put your videos in tracks below it and use Track Motion or Event Pan/Crop to position them with the transparent areas of your border graphic.
If you have any problems with transparency, just make it very brilliant green (or if your border is green, brilliant red or blue) in photoshop and use the Chroma Key plugin to remove it.
I hope I answered your question properly!

Hey Steve!
Just means the template matches your project settings :).

That’s interesting… wouldn’t that just be a post-production effect?
I’m sure you’d have to achieve a tilt in the glass of the lens… potentially disastrous?Daniel Hughes

I’d say:
1. Get a Citroen with an open-able sunroof.2. Obtain a driver.
3. Like a meerkat, emerge from the sunroof and get your magnificent moving shots. Even handheld or with a cheapish shouldermount, it’ll be great!
Or, alternatively, B-Hague do some reasonably priced stuff that might fit your requirements:
