John, I just got my Shuttle pro v2, and I cannot get it to work.

The application options do not list Vegas 9. The highest it goes is Vegas 7. I was told it would work using a Vegas 7 setting. I selected that, but it still did not work. In reading the instructions it appears you really don’t have to select anything if it is listed it will just work with that application. Is that right?

Do you know what I need to do to get it working. In one thread I read where I needed to “link it to the software” I am not sure what this means.
Thanks Mark

Ok I just got the shuttle also
what do you mean… …Only issue is that when you install it, you need to choose Vegas 7 and then go find the Vegas.exe file and assign it to the software how do I do that?

Any Help apprciated. Mark

Thanks for the info…. I currently am running windows 7 64 bit, I am doing more and more HD so I’m thinking this might help (10). From your post I take it you agree.

Ok , Thanks for the info…. I found that out last night when I had no audio on the DVD!!!

You stated:
There is no reason to make Blu-ray on DVD anymore. That was a valid argument when Blu-ray discs cost $25 each. Now that they are $1.25 each, it’s a silly idea.

I dont’t understand what you mean here…..
I purchased some “blu-ray” formatted discs … but this is what did’nt work… can you explain some more

Mark

Oh yea, can you explain why when I try to use the bold, underline etc for these posts this is what I get ?

Thanks John, No I was not using one of the DVD Architect templates. I opened the file in Vegas and did a render as using : DVD Architect NTSC Widescreen Video Stream. Mpeg2 You are right it did not do any further encoding and finished rather qucikly.
What does “video stream” mean?

I thought I read someplace that HD video needs to be rendered as an Mpeg4? Is that right? I can’t see where vegas does Mpeg4.

I am shooting with a panasonic codec of AVC intra. I use a raylight program to convert the files for use in Sony Vegas. That program makes proxie files for editing. The raylight program allows me to go back to high quality when I am ready to render.

What I am trying to do here is get the best possible finished product on the DVD. Would I have to use the Blue Ray settings to do this even though it may be a small file (less than 4.7 gigs)?

I tried making on BlueRay with DVD Architect and when I put it in my sony blue ray player it said it could not read the disk. Any ideas?

By the way, thanks for your help here and at other times that you have responded to my posts. This is a great service to us trying to learn.
