    [Steve Rhoden] “Go to Tools and scroll down to Scripting, then press Rescan Script menu folder.”

    Or restart Vegas. This is a pre-existing issue that has been happening since SVP10.

    I must be extremely lucky. Or the fact that I am using all Sony equipment 🙂

  • Curious. Can’t comment on PluralEyes as I sync by eye and ear, but like you, I usually have continuously recording events. I have not had a sync issue with any of the long events I have recorded over 80 minutes, and I am mixing tape (FX1) with data recorder (Z1P + Datavideo DN60), memory card (PJ760), with an XLR feed going into an NX5. I have had some sound delay issues with the audio feed from the sound desk as their compression tends to add a delay, but once the audio is lined up, it stays that way. It does not drift.

    There is a suggestion I have read on other forum of setting the Marantz PMD-660 to record at 99.9% speed to match the 29.97 fps of NTSC.

    [Roger Bansemer] “What parameters do you suggest for a timelapse of a landscape/cloud type series of shots. “

    Sorry, can’t help you out there. I was given the images taken over a period of 7 days of a stage crew ‘bumping in’ to a theatre. I think he used a video camera hooked up to a memory recorder, and used the built in intervalometer.

    They don’t call it the land down under for nothing 🙂

  • [Alexander Hernandez] “also how fast would it be able to render videos??”

    The render speed will vary, depending on the number of FX you apply to your media, and the media itself. If you are working in DV, your render times will be quick, but will be slower with HDV or AVCHD.

    You can get some nice ‘floaty’ tracking shots. I once did a loop around a bride and it looked great. Small camera, but packs a punch.

    [John Rofrano] ” When authoring for Blu-ray or DVD you should always feed DVD Architect separate video and audio streams.”

    Is this the same as choosing ‘include audio’ and selecting ‘save as separate elementary streams’ in the render template? I end up with 2 files: m2v and m2a.

    My system specs: Intel i7 970, 12GB RAM, ASUS P6T, Vegas Pro 11 (x32/x64), Windows 7 x64 Ultimate, Vegas Production Assistant 1.0, VASST Ultimate S Pro 4.1, Neat Video Pro 2.6

    [John Rofrano] “As Steve pointed out, all stabilization requires a reduction in resolution and therefore a reduction in quality. The only solution that retains full quality is called a Tripod. ;-)”

    Sony has new cameras on the market using a balanced optical steadyshot mechanism. I bought one (Sony PJ760) and don’t regret it. I shot an ice skating event with it standing up and the footage looks as though it was shot on a tripod, and I was also getting close ups and fast panning shots. I also used it for a graduation formal event with kids arriving in their fancy vehicles, and with a LED camera light, the footage turned out great.

    It’s not quite up to Steadicam standards, but it is pretty close and a helluva lot cheaper and does not require special training or preparation other than flicking the screen open and hitting record. The HVR-NX30P also has this technology.
