“I meant to pull the MPEG2 import onto the timeline and then render it to DV-AVI. Now just delete the MPEG2 import and edit using the new DV-AVI file.”

This was Edward’s suggestion form earlier.

I’ll have to find a camcorder then.
Will any camcorder do or must it be the one used to record this particular disc?

I now understand what you mean by rednering to AVI once the raw asset is imported. Will do that.
Thanks.

[Dan Sherman]

Thanks Edward,—I appreciate that the quality would be better.
But I don’t have the camcorder only the disc.
And Vegas doesn’t see the disc in my DVD machine,—doesn’t recognize it.
Says “no disc available”. Like it’s not there,—but it is.

[Dan Sherman]

Did that Jeremy.
Window says no dsic available.
In fact the disc is in the machine.
Tried browsing to machine, but no luck,—just window with grayed out “OK”.
Maybe a preference we’re overlooking?
Thanks

And now everyone will know that I had the VCR patched incorrectly.
Thanks anyway Edward.

[Dan Sherman]

Thanks for reminder Jeremy.

[Dan Sherman]

Thanks Edward.

P4 3.00 Ghz, 3.01 Ghz 1.00 GB of RAM.
System is RAID configured.
C drive 80 GB
E drive 250 RAIDED
F and G are swappable 180 abd 250 respetively.
Notice system grind down when I open more than one instance of Vegas.
Seen various error messages including “low memory”.

What IS sufficient IYO to render video? 2.0 GB,—more?

[Dan Sherman]

Tried all that stuff.
Finally plugged firewire into different receptical on machine and everything sprang back to life.
May be a card problem.
Am capturing again.
Thanks.

[Dan Sherman]
