Thanks Mike, I’ve been with Universal for 13 years now. It does give me a chance to work with some realy cool hi-tech stuff I normally would not get the chance to like the DVS Pronto2K and 4K video servers. Thats about 4000 x 2000 60P video on the 4K. WOW!! Aligning the four projectors up to each other is a task. Yes it’s fun sometimes out here. Thanks again Mike. Danny Hays

I don’t believe Vegas will export as OMF yet. That’s what Protools users normally ask for. Vegas used to be just audio on Vegas 1 and 2 I believe. It supports direct-x and vst pluggins. If It has to be done in PT, You can render each track out at the same lenth and he can import them to tracks at the beginning of the time line and retain your timing. You won’t have any level, panning or effect settings but Isn’t that what he’s wanting to do with PT? Danny Hays

Windows media encoder can do it. It’s free Still I think,, Quality will depend on your internet bandwidth and how many people will be watching it at the same time. Windows media encoder will stream it out and windoes media player will play it via “Open url insert your IP address”. It’s been years but I streamed a music video @ 640 x 480 with a standard road runner connection.

Hi Shane,
I use a Matrox Parhelia APVe Graphics Card with MC and it works great. I have two monitors and a HDTV playing full screen at the same time. Using Windows, other software also takes advantage of the HDTV like Windows media player, Onlocation, Ultra.

Try the event crop instead of the track crop. Hope this helps. Danny Hays

If you havent purchaced a Camera yet, I would recommend an HDV over DV camera. I have a Cannon GL1 and a Sony HVR-A1U and I don’t even use the Cannon anymore except when I need a live preview in Ultra 2. With the HDV camera you can still record in DV or down convert if needed too. The prices of HDV cameras are close to the better DV cameras now. I would stick with a tape based camera opposed to hard drive cameras. Some downfalls with the latter are unsupported file types with many NLE’s and if you record one long shot to a hard drive based camera, you have to take the whole file to the computer even if you only need small pieces. Hope this helps. Danny Hays

You can also do it by zooming in on the timeline in Vegas until you can see each frame. Split before and after the bad frame and delete the bad frame. Then split before the last good frame or after the first good frame and hold control button and drag a copy of the preceeding or following frame to replace the bad one. If there is fast movement in this shot, you may see the replaced frame. You can use both preceeding and following frame and use them both together by putting one in the track above it and lowering it’s opacity to show a double image sort of speak but it will look smoother in the playback. Hope this helps. Danny Hays

If you don’t need the tracking ability from Ultra, you can use the back ground .png files in Vegas. Make sure you can see your hidden files, In windows explorer select tools, folder options, view and select show hidden files and folders. You will also need to drag them to the timeline in Vegas from Windows explorer and not the explorer in Vegas. They won’t show up there. Look in the Ultra virtual sets folder and then inside each set is an elements folder which contains the background .png files. If your using Vegas to key DV footage, put a chromablur plugin before the chroma key plugin and set the blur to medium. This will help with the typical DV jaggies we all know and hate. Hope this helps. Danny Hays

Try setting to project settings to progressive and also render to progressive video. It sounds like your seeing the interlacing. Danny

Try holding shift and dragging the edge of the video to shorten it. You can also use the velocity envelope to speed up or slow down. Danny
