The names changed from “Sonic Foundry” to “Sony” between those two versions.

Simply going to File – Render AS – picking MPEG2 as the format and DVD PAL as the preset should work fine. You may need to click “Custom…” and do two things: 1) turn on “Two-Pass” and 2) change the “Average Bitrate” to be appropriate for the length of your video.

The only other question is audio. That setting will include audio in the MPEG file – compressed audio. They may prefer the audio as either a separate WAV or AC3 file.

You should be able to drop the VOB file directly on the timeline WITHOUT changing the extension to MPG. Give that a try first.

IF the DVD had audio and IF the audio was AC-3 then Vegas would not be able to see it (as you said, not an issue in your case). In that case you have to extract the audio into a format that Vegas CAN see (such as WAV). This process is can be called demuxing (since the process of combining the two initially is called muxing).

I *think* that answer is yes. But I’ve never tried it.

If that box is grayed out then you don’t have a loop region specified. Make a loop region on the timeline and that box will be available. Since you don’t have a loop region, that can’t be the problem. Can you tell us more?

Change the script as I mentioned and you’ll have only the video being split. If you prefer, it could be limited to only SELECTED events.

The “S” key DOES split the audio.

Do you have Ignore Event Grouping turned on? Exactly how are you splitting? This script will simply split EVERYTHING at the cursor location. Having it not do audio is simply a matter of telling it to ignore audio tracks. A very simple change.

From:

SplitEvents(track, Vegas.Cursor);

To:

If (track.IsVideo())
SplitEvents(track, Vegas.Cursor);

No, it’s not the only way it could be done. Personally, I just press “S”. Alternately, you could write a script that does this. I was just looking at options that were already written instead of sitting down to write a NEW script specifically for this function.

Just for you, though, take a look at this script I just created:

It will also UNGROUP them for you so you’ll need to regroup as needed.
