Also .png files can contain a transparent alph channel where jpegs
can’t if I’m not mistaken. Good for making corner bugs. -
I put alot of videos on various video servers and most use mpeg’s. I also use the extra vga output of laptops and put that on projectors. If your using a computer as your source, also try .wmv with the highest quality settings. They look good and can also be played back on a fairly fast computer as a source. If your going to use the rendered footage again, then uncompressed or an intermediate format,
(Like Cineform) can save you hard drive space. Hope this helps,Danny Hays

I get good results rendering to 1920 x 1080 30P 32 bit floating, Progressive Program stream mpeg 2 format.

There’s also a Brightness and Contrasts effect.
Your picture is not 4 x 3 or 16 x 9 aspect ratio. You can click on the event pan/crop and select 4 : 3 or 16 : 9 to crop it to fit, DV is 4 :3 and HDV is 16 : 9. Hope this helps, Danny Hays -
Vegas is looking for a IEEE-1394 firewire device. usually a tape based camera. Your camera has a hard drive in it, so you should be able to see it from Windows explorer and copy the video files that way or use the Sony app that came with the camera to get the video on your computer, then import them into Vegas. Hope this helps, Danny Hays

Try checking the ,Options, Preferences, Enable no-recompress long_GOP rendering. It may have gotton unchecked by default with the upgrade. Hope this helps, Danny Hays

I don’t believe you can keep these effects from being in a new audio track, but after you delete them, you can duplicate that track over and over and save some time at least. You can also save as a template, once you have the amount of audio and video tracks the way you like. These effects are set to default,”Not effecting” unless you change them. So deleting them won’t change the sound, but will free up some processing power. Hope this helps, Danny

Opps, I forgot. Hold down the cntl key while you put the curser over the beginning or end of a video event, then drag the edge to a length that is in sync with the audio. Danny

If you want to manipulate the video track to sync to an audio track, You can split the video track into smaller ones, and strech, slow motion or shrink, fast motion to sync each section of video to the audio track. You will still be using every frame this way. Be advised to much streaching can cause jittery looking video, Pro allows you to force resample to make filler frames to minimise this. I as well dont have platimum but I thing these features are in it. Hope this helps, Danny Hays

Not sure with Platinmum, but it should be the same as Pro. In the Vegas Exporer window, or even Windows Exporer, set your view to details and click on the “Name box” over the clip names and it will arrange then in a acending or decending order, the drag them in and they will play in that order. I sometimes use Windows Exporer to select files from because Vegas’s doesn’t show some “Hidden” folders, even if I have Windows “Show all hidden files”. For an example, Adobe Ultra has .png files hidded in “Elements” folders that it uses in its virtual sets and they will not show up in Vegas’s explorer window. Hope this helps, Danny Hays
