I always edit in preview auto as to not tax my system. Real time would be a dream. I use best full to see detail when I need to.

John, boy do I appreciate your efforts. I should have known better to ask you 7 months ago. The reply from Boris was that it could not be done with Vegas at the time so I left it at that. I’ll know just where to ask when I come across some of the other things I found not to work in my experience. I had a list here someplace. I believe that many involved presets in different categories that did not do anything when attempting to use them.

Thanks once again. I’ll let you know how it goes.

John, thank you so very much for taking the time to see this matter through. It is good to know that there is a way to do the FX within Vegas. I would be at a loss without your expertise doing the heavy lifting.
I always look forward to your tutorials and certainly hope that Boris allows you to cover the application of all their FX in Vegas. I am going to attempt to make the wall as you explained. At some point I hope to do this stuff as fluid as the pro’s seem to make it. I need to invest more time with the tools I have and retain more of the lessons.

Thanks again,
Mike

Hi John, here is the thread from 7 months ago. I was hoping that there might be an update or another way to do things since that time. It was an Avid tutorial, but as with many things in the Boris world the work cannot be done in Vegas without fumbling through it. Then you find out find out you lost the ball after running 90 yards. You see the ads for these super cool things the FX software can do. However, they don’t tell you need an army of other NLE’s to do to what attracts you in the first place.

What I was trying to do was make a wall just like in AVID. I’d also like to use EPS spline or SVG files that don’t require opening my wallet yet again.

I render AVCHD files/projects to the EXCAM template and the use Handbrake to finish the process to MP4. Works very well and plays on everything. EXCAM by itself does not.

I guess some things are just not made to collaborate with each other at the buyer’s expense. I’ll address my concerns to Sony, but I would probably get the same results. My thoughts are that the market for both working together might be worth the effort on their part. However, it may be like trying to put a square peg in a round hole. We all know how that goes.

Thank you for your insight, Joe.

Thanks for your reply, Joe I got the same response some 7 months ago and was assured that Boris was working on the situation. I’m just a little peeved that so many things are not doable with Boris BC C8 in Sony Vegas. There were no disclaimers to tell me any different when I bought the software that I remember. Good money spent only to have to spend a bundle more (RED or other NLE’s) to come close to the results I’m looking for. I’m curious to where the Customer Promise is in regard to Vegas. I don’t see it from here.

I took the words particle illusion from the BCC 8 .pdf file: BCC Card Array is a particle based generator style filter. The took the FX as such.

[Mike Hinkel]

Nothing to it. Thanks much. Now to get some stuff together. Thanks Steve.

[Mike Hinkel]

Thanks Steve. That looks simple enough. How/where would I apply the batch file to work like your setup?

[Mike Hinkel]

What would I need for the enclosure you suggest, John? Is that considered a raid?
