    For menus created in Vegas, it’s best to render AVI and bring that into DVDA, and let it render MPEG2. This is because DVDA always re-renders menus, if you add buttons or other objects.

    For your main video file, use Vegas to render it straight to MPEG-2, and take that into DVDA. DVDA won’t recompress it, unless you tell it to.

    September 30, 2007 at 8:15 pm in reply to: Page Turning effect

    I have two upper tracks with text on it. Third track is the background for the text. I want the next page to only have the background, so it appears empty.

    The problem is that the text shows through the page turn effect, even when Opacity is 100%.

    How do this?

    thanks in advance.

    Thank you for confirming that! I played with it some more, and saw no difference.

    No, but I have run into problems with the ProTitler. For example: When you use a stroke width above zero, words can no longer be made transparent. I even put the opacity at zero, but word still shows!

    I have actually ran into the same problem. Vegas real-time preview stops being real-time. It slows down, even if I disable all effects on timeline. Not sure what is causing it.

    I am sorry for wasting your time with my post. I finally found that you can click the values and input a specific one.

    Dummy me!

    It’s time I order the training DVD’s!

    All DVD players that have the “DVD Logo” should be compliant up to 10.08 Mbps (10080 kbps),(Video+Audio+subs). If the player can’t sustain this bitrate on pressed or recordable discs, it is not compliant. And it shouldn’t have the DVD Logo, IMO. Personally, I would replace the junk DVD player, if it had trouble sustaining these rates.

    I always use two-pass variable bitrate with 9800kb/s max + 256kb audio. This gives 10056kb/s, which is just under the maximum allowed.

    Yes I know standard DV is LFF. I have Vegas project set to Lower Field First.

    What does the Deinterlace Method affect? There are three choices, “None/Blend Fields/Interpolate Fields“. Since I am using standard DV and don’t want it deinterlaced, do I have to set this to “none” so Vegas won’t deinterlace my video? Or do these options only affect the Video Preview Screen?

    Open up Task Manager and select the Performance tab. You should see two graphs, one for each core. When you render, each graph should increase close to 100%.

    In Vegas, go to Options/Performance/Video tab. “Maximum number of rendering threads” should be 4.

    USB 2.0 and Firewire should be okay, as long as you don’t access the drives at the same time as capturing.

    eSATA is what I use. Much faster than both USB2 and Firewire 400/800. Same speed as internal SATA.
