We don’t have the cables run yet to do this…soon hopefully.
As an alternative I installed the Blackmagic codecs on the Adrenalin. I first tried rendering out of the Adrenalin with the standard 8bit NTSC 4:2:2 codec. It pretty much behaved like the animation codec on the Decklink machine. The audio was fine, but the video was a slide show, and it needed to render just to do this.
So I looked at the clip properties of this clip and everything looked correct except the famerate, which was listed as 3FPS. We, of course, double checked the settings in the Adrenalin and everything was correct. And obviously that wasn’t the framerate of the file because the Quicktime player played it back perfectly.
Then I looked at the properties of a clip I had captured on the Decklink machine that did playback correctly and noticed that, although the clip had a .mov extension, the compressor was listed as microsoft AVI YUV.
So in the Adrenalin, instead of going under the quicktime export settings, I went into the AVI settings. The Blackmagic codecs were also listed there, but not all of them. Only the HD and 10bit. So I tried the NTSC 10 bit codec, brought it into Premiere and it worked perfectly without rendering.
So…could I get an explanation of the difference between Quicktime and AVI Blackmagic codecs and some possible ideas as to what is going on? -
when i do this, it is close, but is off by a few seconds. I’ve tried drop and non drop.

full licensed version. The mpeg isn’t the problem…the timeline doesn’t show up either. The file is quicktime though and no, I don’t have the pro version of quicktime. But Vegas 4 handles it .

Didn’t help. The thumbnails in the timeline display fine though.

you can’t. Network rendering only works with image sequences. The only way I know ofto render a mov with networked computers is using x-factor.It comes with the latest version of AE but only a two machine license is included. For 6 machines I think it is $500 or $600. Unlimited license is $2000.

I’ve gotton rid of 90% of my render errors by hitting the caps lock key right before rendering. This keeps the preview window from updating. And because AE isn’t rendering the frame twice(one for your output and one for the preview) you also get a small boost in render speeds.

Vegas was the first program I used to do any serious editing. Without any preconceived notions of how a NLE “should” work, I found it incredibly easy and intuitive to learn. I have heard the same from people I work with who are not “editors”.
Conversely, Avid and Premiere frustrate the hell out of me because they seem to hide things I am used to being able to do directly on the timeline. -
