Thanks for the response Kelly. I understand what you mean about it being hard to determine what standards the TV station requires but since I sent my video to three different station with the same result it leads me to believe that I am doing something wrong.
If my video is within the broadcast colors range provided by Sony Vegas’s broadcast color “very conservative” option is there something else in my video that could be causing my white to get so blown on TV but be perfectly fine on the computer?
I really though that once I got the external broadcast crt monitor I would see that I am not really within broadcast color but everything looks great on my external monitor.
I feel like I am doing something very simple very wrong but can’t put my fingers on it.
