    Its also ok to use the music from the CD your clients have
    bought for use in their wedding ceremony.

    No, it is not. It’s a criminal act as well as a civil act, and may be prosecuted as such. It’s replication and synch of a copyrighted master recording.

    In fact, the editor is more liable than the client in this particular case, because the editor is expected to know better.

    Google “My Voice, My Choice: Copyright Caveats”

    ps: As sad and pessemistic as it souds, I don’t really expect to get a satisfactory answer, but I’d love to be surprised!

    I’ve seen people turn their noses at high quality gold that wasn’t polished just the way they wanted, as well.
    Short answer, if you think designing bug-free software is easy, or if you feel manufacturers write bugs into the software intentionally, you probably should be writing your own.
    As a partner in a small software company, it’s very difficult being on the edges of the ripple when Microsoft, hardware companies, or third party software vendors do things that affect our software. Tech support becomes impossible.

    So…perhaps writing your own is the best answer.

    Otherwise, learn to live with the fact that the software is predominantly written to fit the most broad hardware/software user component out there, and it’s always going to have minor issues here or there.

    Vegas is far less buggy, runs more smoothly, and offers more format options than any other software out there, but it still has its quirks.
    As does *everything* else worth having in life.

    Click/hold the Rate slider in the lower left. Not as convenient as the shuttle pro, but it works.

    Vegas Pro8 and a reasonably fast computer make great companions for HDV, and you will not need an intermediary.

    how big are the files? It may be that they’re absorbing too much RAM.

    March 4, 2009 at 5:11 pm in reply to: Vegas for Professional TV Use?

    Vegas is used daily for cutting national TV spots, packages for broadcast, field editing of clips for broadcast, etc.
    Delivery is usually in a digital format, but there are a few clients still wanting Beta SP for delivery.
    HDD, tape, DVD, web…these are all common delivery mechanisms.

    The list of people using Vegas for broadcast production is fairly long, some of the Belo Group stations use Vegas, CSN, Nightline, LaRaza, Discovery providers, Food Channel, even MTV for some package work.

    Rarely is a project delivered as a project; it’s usually delivered as a finished product.
    “Everything” for TV is no longer done with Avid, many tools have made their way into the workspace as Avid continually prices and features themselves out of the market. Final Cut, Edius, Premiere, Vegas are all commonly found in broadcast houses.

    Use the Main Concept for YouTube.
    There is a complete SD and HD youtube workflow posted on the VASST site, you’ll probably find it very useful. Step by step, and frame sizes.
