AC-3 is a file format that is encoded for DVD/BluRay playback- not necessarily playback on your computer as a file.
Going from one computer to another is possible- just save the files to an external and reconnect the broken file links when you connect to your other PC. However, if you edited in Vegas Pro 10 you will not be able to open Vegas Pro 10 projects in Vegas Pro 8. That is not possible.
You can take the mpg-2 file and drop it on the timeline, but the AC-3 file is not able to be read on the timeline. You will want to render it as a wav file. I think Vegas Pro 8 allows for no recompression of the video file if you do not edit it (or if you cut, it only recompresses where the cuts are). I could be wrong on that as I don’t remember if that was implemented in 8 or 9. If it doesn’t, you will lose some quality as you are recompressing a lossy codec. If this is the case, save it as a Lagarith file or Cineform file (you will need to download Lagarith, it is free and the same is true of Cineform in Vegas 10 but it is not free).

You can’t. Most cameras are set for different regions and yours is set for PAL. PAL should not be the issue.
If you notice, when you watch a movie the pans almost always have some sort of stutter in the background. As for the footage on your TV, is it the same footage you are currently working on?
If you are in a country that uses PAL, you will want to stay in the PAL spec. HDV can be either PAL or NTSC, but if your footage is PAL, you will want to use a PAL formatted HDV template.

Have you tried to re-render it to see if it was a one time thing? Also, have you tried using an intermediary file format such as Lagarith or Cineform to see if you can encode from that file format without issue? These are just ways to narrow down the options. In addition, try removing the transition and just do a straight cut to see if the transition is causing issues.
Let us know and we can go from there.

Hi. I doubt that anyone will be able to decode that here. Can you burn via other programs? Can you save the output as an ISO file and burn it via another program such as iso burner (free program)? Can you burn any other DVDA projects?
If you need further help, you may want to contact the manufacturer of the DVD burner and/or Sony support directly.

Hi Cesar,
It doesn’t work that way. It would be nice. When your file encodes, it encodes given the parameters you set for the render.
Now, VASST has a few tools that will allow you to batch render (set up the renders on the front end and have it to render out back to back without your intervention). This is great for those hours you must sleep 🙂 You can get the Production Assistant or Ultimate S Pro. I also think that JetDV’s Excalibur has a batch function to it as well.
Hopefully this gives you a great working alternative.

Did you download it or do you have the discs? I think I got a disc a few versions ago of Sony Sound Loop Library. It was a separate disc than the install disc and it was included with the package.

I don’t think there is a set answer for your question. The time will increase the lower you make the bitrate (lower quality). The time will decrease the higher the bitrate (better quality).
It really depends on how high of a quality you want your finished product to be. If it is a 6 hour video, the quality is going to have to be pretty low. if it is a 30 minute long video, you can max out the bitrate, but just be sure that your player of choice can actually play at that bitrate.

Did you deinterlace and blend your fields in VLC? Did you try any of the other options?

I have not had this issue on my system so I don’t have a fix. However, have you tried doing a system restore to the last time you knew it worked to see if it is a system setting or if it might be hardware related?

JR,
I have DivX software installed on my editing system and I can play back and encode from DivX from the Vegas timeline. I have never tried Xvid. I know this conversation has come up in the past elsewhere and there have been those that could get it to work and those that could not. The only reason I think mine does work is b/c I have the paid version of DivX encoder installed on my system. I don’t know this to be the definitive answer as to why it works on mine, but I can verify that it does.
