8c was bad…9a-c bad…9e rock solid…10a riddled with advertising lies…but solid…
I love digital capture, I cringe when I get clients with miniDV’s lol…
Cheapest I’d go: JVC 100u
vavorite cam: Sony-ex1
both require playing with picture profiles…
Otherwise flat video looks… -
I do everything in cineform neo4k… I have the Sony ex-1 and RED. Check out neo scene… Or neohd…
I\’ve tried Morgan jpeg 2000… Decent for cheap, but only supports 32bit apps, not Vegas 64…
I have a black magic studio capture card for in house work. The free jpeg codec is LOUSY…get what you pay for…
Beleve me, I\’m cheap, I\’ve tried everything I could. Nothing I\’ve found short of working uncompressed avi even come close to the quality of cineform products… It\’s the gold standard, anything less is crap.. IMO

Download: adobe audition 3…
Trial for 30 days…has great filters….much easier to use vs. Sound forge…

Providing you have the ram and CPU powers…
Just open the same project in multiple windows of Vegas.
However, as the previous post states… 2 renders even 4 just increases total render time proportionately… It does help so you don’t have to baby sit the computer.
I do find that no one single render consumes 100% CPU, so it will increase productivity a bit….
Good luck

WOW, I hope not!! I thought the GPU lie was bad! Ditching network, will the let downs never cease?
I’ll look into this first thing tomorrow!

This is quite easy in Vegas:
It looks as they used picture in picture from plug in from newblu effects.
However, Gaussian Blur the the back ground image and reduce opacity or desaturate just a bit.
Lay two tracks of the foreground image and enlarge the image of the track just behind the top image desaturate and adjust opacity to make it look like a shadow.
Play with motion tracking and keyframes. Effect complete with music.

Just remember poop in equals poop out.
I mean h.264 is an end user codec never ment to edit with, no matter what Steve Jobs would have you think. Pro res is getting dropped and they are attempting to create a wavelet based codec…
I find long group of pictures to be a terrible way to edit, causes all sorts of issues when using transitions, not to mention color degradation.
Transcode, your footage to a high bit rate, intraframe codec before editing… Jpeg2000, cineform, etc…
Your other issue may be 32bit mode with certain mpeg renditions don’t translate the same… Read Glenn Chan.
Good luck…

Yes, that appears to be a correct copy from sony\’s web site. Apparently the operative word is \’MAY\’ should be \’most likely won\’t.\’ I find it to be a very poor choice of advertising. Kinda reminds me of a diet exercise ad, you know, results not typical, your results will vary. Lol
My computer drivers, video card, even a slow CPU all match the required ad requirements…
Perhaps, the 3D additions make an upgrade worthy, if you\’re thinking thats the very near future of tv, and movies. However I think Pirana 3d, has shown us the viability of that notion. we can only hope Jackass 3D can prove Sony\’s insight.
On a serious note, even CS5 is no more efficient than Vegas 9 / 10 at rendering…
I would love to know the real bottle neck of rendering..I never see 100% CPU load… Usually 36- 75%…perhaps certain filters are not multicore or something…actuall honest detailed advertising can only help people these days… Until that day, I have ocean front property in Arizona, any one interested?

I too am in the same boat, the Techhelp from total training, and the dvd’s from their collection were no help either! shocking that such a simple task would be completely ignored, please for the love of something, someone share this seemingly simple task.
