Well, I’m using 11 on 2 systems and I’m not crashing. I glad I’m not crashing, but it’s all you ever hear around here. I guess my workflow is simpler than most. I use 3 AVCHD tracks for multi-cam, then add intros, music, trailers, commercials, LT’s and occasional bug in the corner, for a 1/2 hour show.

I don’t do email or web browsing on my production machine, just Vegas, photoshop and a few utilities. I always run the updates on my test machine first for a couple of weeks to see how they will do. The test machine has Vegas, Photoshop, AE, Office software, email, and a bunch of junk. It also shares most of the storage on the other one. I guess if Vegas runs well in that environment it will run well on my ‘isolated’ machine.

I’ve been quite happy doing it this way.

I agree Steve, with all that camera motion it has to be AE.

Any reason for mpg2? You might look at Blip.tv’s standards for high-def video, but I’m pretty sure they’ll want an H264 mp4. You could keep the mpg2 and encode it in 2-passes. You might even pick up some quality while loosing some space, that depends on how much motion you have.

Bingo! I wouldn’t go much lower that say 30 seconds. I think that would be pushing it. ! minute is good. Are you having crashes?

Just a long-shot… In your project settings: have you selected 32-bit pixels? If you have, change it back to 8 and let us know if it fixes things.

you’re right it happens in the camera. But it can be converted afterward, what you end up with is 4:2:0 sampling in a 4:2:2 space.

I wish I could have a good close look at some of your crashes. I’m sure Sony needs to fix something, but whatever it is, I glad it’s not on my computers.
