March 25, 2018 at 11:49 pm in reply to: Unusual Stuttering – Matched Source Media and Project Settings

Hi Grazie,

Thanks so much for all of the help. The video I uploaded was only a piece that was rendered from Sony Vegas and not the original file I was working with. The original file would probably be too big to upload. Unfortunately I do not have the stills…they are incorporated in the source video ☹

I’ll do some research into the codec issue and see if I can find some form of resolution. It’s super odd that the original file plays just fine until it is dropped into Vegas.

Thanks Francois! All of the content and the project is NTSC.

Hi Graham,

Thanks for the help. I have uploaded a short rendered clip. I can open the original source file with Window’s Media Player and it looks fine. However, the second I drop it into Vegas, both preview and render have a stutter.

I uploaded the media file here: 12264_stuttering.mp4.zip

[Danny Hays] “I just got the Hero 4 black. I experienced the same side stretch problem with Go-pro studio. So I played around with Vegas’s deform video effect. I made a real quick comparison video on the results you can see here. Sorry about the mic noise. I used a lav and held it in my hand. Didn’t want to remake it. LOL
“

This is awesome. Thanks for posting! I converted over 12 hours of video to Cineform, most of it with GoPro’s fisheye removal checked. Have you tried cropping the GoPro fisheye removed video once in Vegas? I am curious if the effect is the same. I’d rather nor re-transcode my source material. I may try it but am curious if you have already done so.

May 20, 2015 at 4:09 am in reply to: Any Vegas Plugins Similar To Microsoft’s Hyperlapse?

Agreed. This software creates a 3D model of the background as part of the stabilization process. I ran a 45 minute 1080P 60fps video through the beta software and set it to output at 30fps. My 6 core 4930K, overclocked to 4.6GHz, took nearly 8 hours at 100% load to process the hyperlapse. The software is legit. I hope it is released at a reasonable price.

[Nick McMahon] “Kell… I see yr rig has the R9 290X… did you build the rig to use with Vegas …?”

I started building it for video editing when I was using Pinnacle Studio before they became Avid. I hear great things about the pro-level Avid software. However, the consumer version of Pinnacle was not my favorite program on the planet to put it nicely… I soon came across Sony Vegas Movie Studio and liked it. I was crazy lucky and won 2 separate sweepstakes in which I won Sony Vegas Pro and the full suite of NewBlueFX products.

With pro-level stuff I wanted a good machine to run it. Here iswhat I have put together:

*NZXT Phantom Case with 11 fans. (not including those on the GPU. I am slightly obsessed with keeping my PC as cool as possible w/o messing with custom water cooled solutions)
*ASUS P9X79 Deluxe
*i7 4930K (recently upgraded from i7 3820)
*Corsair H80i liquid CPU cooler (hacked with ducts and much more powerful, albeit louder, fans for significant cooling boost)
*32GB RAM
*1000 watt Raidmax PSU
* XFX R9-290X with 8GB RAM & AMD Radeon HD 5450 (previously used NVIDIA’s GTX460, Quadro 2000, Quadro 4000)
* 250GB Samsung 850 Pro SSD boot drive with backup 250GB notebook HDD
* 120GB Samsung 840 Pro
* 480GB OCZ Revo PCI SSD
* 3TB media storage HDD with 60GB Mushkin SSD used as a cache. Additional backup 3TB drive
* 1TB storage and archiving drive with another backup 1TB drive.
* Blue Ray writer
* DVD/Lightscribe drive

Believe it or not, but this was the first PC I have ever built. I spent about 6 months researching the hardware and determined that, at the time, this was the best set up and I still think it is now that I have upgraded processors. The X99 boards look appealing but I do not think they have enough improvements to justify getting one. Maybe the next round of extreme chipsets from Intel will have more PCI-e lanes and maybe even OpenCL 2.0 support for shared memory in the firmware.

The Quadro cards were nearly usless. The GTX 460 performed better but was highly unstable in Vegas. The R9-290X has provided more of a boost than adding 2 more CPU cores with the processor upgrade! This card is awesome and performs spectacularly in Vegas previews (I don’t care about render times). The only problem is that I am now on my 3rd card since December. The first one displayed artifacts on the screen and the next one died after 2 weeks. I just got the new one today and am testing it now. No one else online have reported problems like this so I think I just got unlucky with a couple of lemons.

The crazy thing is that I do not do video editing for a profession. I built this rig as a hobby, primarily for home videos of my family 🙂

Las Vegas is home for me.

[Nick McMahon] “Samsung had to come up with this to remain king…. 2150mbps… that is super lightning fast… if they keep going I envisage that a tele-porter is on the cards… :-)”

That looks awesome!

[Nick McMahon] “200Mbps is surely as fast as I’d imagined I would want from a RAID set-up but why would I bother if it can be obtained thru a PCI-e slot.

Is this what you’re talking about…? https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/samsung-xp941-z97-pci-express,3826-5.ht...”

Here are a couple of links. They advertise the drives as “An easy to deploy, single-card alternative to RAID”.

I have the 480GB model but it is a number of years old now and these new drives are MUCH faster. Crap…now that I see these new models, I want a new one! It is certainly not the cheapest option but it is wicked fast and stable beyond belief. I transferred over 8GBs from a USB 3.0 flash drive to my OCZ drive and it took a matter of seconds. Note that it will add a few seconds to your post as the disc is initialized at startup. I doubt you are too worried about that though. Some PC guys take pride in how fast their system boots. I don’t really care about boot times; working speeds are what I care about.
