Got it. Thanks John.

Is there an advantage to that over using the Color Corrector (or Levels) preset? I noticed that Broadcast colors does not otherwise alter the coloration of the image like levels and color corrector do, but if I use the Color Corrector preset, I’d imagine that Broadcast Colors would be unnecessary.
Neither of them seem to alter the color of the “stage,” although I think I’ve found a workaround for that by using “fade to color” on the bottom track.

Well, I would certainly LIKE to get the highest level of accuracy I can get, as this is a project that will be replicated. Render times are of secondary importance. If using 32-bit will reduce banding in my fades (which I have noticed a bit of), then that’s something that’s important to me. If it’s not going to do much for me–or worse, reduce accuracy in my situation–then that’s different.
The images that I’m using have been pretty well adjusted for contrast, etc, to look good on a computer screen. Is there anything that I need to adjust in Vegas (regardless of whether I work in 8-bit or 32-bit) in order to prepare them for DVD render? I’ve read about using the color corrector plugin preset for “Computer RGB to Studio RGB” as well as using the color curves plugin. I’m really not sure what approach to take, though.
Like I said, almost all of the images are entirely black and white, so I’m hoping that will simplify things.

I just realized I can accomplish this same task by creating a mask, so I guess that solves my problem.
Hopefully this can help someone else if they happen to run into the same issue.

Happy to know a noob like me could be responsible for it ;D

That’s what I thought.
So 30p SHOULD work just fine.

I’m under the impression that 24p on DVD is also “faux” progressive, but for all intents and purposes it looks and behaves exactly like a progressive image should. The same is true when I tried encoding 30p on dvd. The image is most definitely progressive (no interlace lines or artifacts), and it’s running at 30fps. The motion of 60i with the picture quality of 24p.
I think I noticed a bit of flicker when I played it back on an interlaced TV. I think I read elsewhere that trying to interlace is where 30p has problems on some players/TVs.

Whoop, sorry. Didn’t realize you were the same guy. I’m just getting mixed messages from people around the net so I think I’m going to stick with 24p.

Thanks, but that doesn’t really answer my question–which is whether DVD supports 29,97fps in progressive scan like it does for 23,976.

Thanks. It is a pretty slow pan, actually.
