Hi,

The stream file (the media source file, am I understanding correct?) is captured by Sony NEX VG20 in FH mode, and the ‘media’ tab of the ‘property’ from the Vegas Pro shows the followings:

Format: AVC
Attributes: 1920x1080x12
Frame rate: 29.970 (NTSC) – greyed out
Field order: Upper field first
Pixel aspect ration: 1.0000 (Square)
Alpha channel: None
Rotation: 0 degree (original)
Stereoscopic 3D mode: Off

Time code shows “Use timecode in file” is selected.

Are there anything I can change in this ‘property’ to solve this issue?

Thank you for chiming in.
I tried Sony AVCHD rendering in a machine with Win 7 64bit fresh install (so absolutely no codec packs or anything, just OS and Vegas), but the same thing happened.

After 1 minute and 45sec, almost consistently the video drops frames.

I guess something is wrong the the encoding plug in for Sony AVCHD format?

Can anybody try the same rendering (.m2ts) and see this is only with me or not?

Thank you all.

I meant .m2ts file format….not .mt2s

So easy to screw up one little character.

Interesting thing is, I can play the original FX file (Sony AVCHD .mt2s file, 24Mbps bitrate) without any issues. It becomes garbled only after rendering, which is the same format but different bitrate. I guess codec that is used to render the Sony AVCHD format has been screwed up by something else.

“Codec pack” means something like installation of free trial version, like Cyberlink WinDVD, or something similar, that may install various codecs?

If that’s something I have to diagnose one by one, then I have another machine, I can wipe out the HD anytime, and clean install everything (to make OS, Vegast only machine).

Thanks for suggestions!

Jeff, thanks for replying.
Yes, Intel i7 950 3.06GHz processor, on Gigabyte X58 motherboard (GA-X58-UD3R), 12GB RAM, Windows 7 pro 64bit, 256GB SSD for OS/application, and Seagate 1TB 7200RPM drive for data/videos. Vegas Pro 11 is 64 bit version (haven’t tried 32bit version). GPU is XFX Double D HD-687A, which is Radeon HD6870 chip board (with the latest driver). I usually use Eyefinity for three HD monitors.

Hi Dan,
Take a look at a few threads down—-I posted my question about FH file format and rendering. You might want to record in FX. I use FH, but have some troubles rendering at the original quality. For downsampling and making DVD disks, FH is just fine. Also, 16GB SD card is good for maybe one hour, so you might need another card? One more thing, do you use class 10 cards? I really recommend faster cards like class 6 at least for FX mode and beyond (I use Class 10). If your card is slow, your image would be kind of skipping (dropping frames).

I’m also new to HD video shooting/editing, but just trying to help. Good luck!
