Hi, I use the equipment from Movie Stuff like Mike specified above. He no longer does transfer work only will sell you the equipment. The equipment is very good, however, the software is quite out of date and you need to be careful to make sure what you have is compatible. I don’t think they are compatible with Windows 7 yet or even 64 bit.

If you need your movies transferred I would be happy to help you. My website is: https://www.take5productions.net/ReeltoReelPrices.html

Thanks!

John- Yes Standard Def & Yes using a Canopus
Thanks for reinforcing what I am doing.

Graham- People are asking if I offer online video storage or if I can upload to the cloud so they can store them there. Keep in mind people when they are asking have no idea of how long it would take to upload or how big the file is. They assume it’s no different then uploading a picture. I have said no I don’t offer that but I think I need to offer some option for it.

Thank you for your reply. It seems like yes we both are on the same page and I am providing people with what they need and in the correct format.
I get a lot of people who say, “Can I just edit this?” “Have you ever edited before?” “No.” Makes me nervous that I will hand them 30 hours of video on a hard drive and they have no idea how to do it and who knows what their computer capability is. They also have no idea how much time it will take. I usually then put it on both a DVD and the hard drive.

Have you done anything with online video storage? If so what format would you suggest that be in? MP4? Or is that just too much of a quality loss? And is there a certain company you are using for online video storage?

I am also having the same problem..did you figure out a solution? I am using Vegas 11 though. Weird.

[Linda O’connell]

Thanks. I was doing it the way you listed, but this way so easier! I will go back to that way.

Thanks for the advice. I will probably just invest in a new one. I had “heard” that sometimes even cell phones can interfere with mics but that doesn’t seem to be the case. Just wanted to make sure it wasn’t “normal” before I bought a new one.

[Linda O’connell]

Only took me about an hour to figure it out ;0

[Linda O’connell]

Fixed it!!!

I had my split screen set. I should have know 🙂

[Linda O’connell]

Thanks. Apparently I have been doing something wrong! I will try again.

I upgraded from 8 to 11 thinking it was about time. But then figured out that I don’t have the correct video card on either one of my computers to use the GPU acceleration, so that point was worthless.

I have been experimenting around with rendering to an AVI then importing into Vegas 8 and render to an MPEG file or whatever other format I need. It seems like it takes hardly anytime to render to an AVI but MPEGs take forever on 11. Is this crazy?

The 11 has the titler option on it and some other templates I use from Digital Juice that aren’t available on 8.

But day in and out I am still using 8, but 90% of my work is simple editing etc.
