Hello again Mark
Yes I can do the same but when I render a whole project of say an hour of video it fails after a while,
Try it

Hello again Mark
I am rendering AVCHD 1080×1920 50p video from my camera.
I render with the Blu ray 1920x 50i 25mbps template
No audio I render that separatly,

Hi Mark
Thanks for your reply
My Driver is indeed 296-10 downloaded a couple of days ago,

The failure I get is when rendering I just get the “Vegas stopped working: screen and have to close Vegas.
I am not sure what you mean by “source” & Settings” as I don’t see any settings for the video card acceleration ? and the source ???

My System is:
Intel i7 2600@3.4Ghz
16GB DDR3
64 bit windows 7 pro

It errors right away..
As soon as I click on “Render” the render dialog box appears then before the blue line comes it shows the error box

Hello Again
Thanks for all your input
Yes John I tried other MP4 templates without changing them: (I tries Sony Internet 1080p and 720p) still got the same error?

And yes I am using Vegas pro 11

Thanks John,
I tried what you said rendering in “main concept MPEG2” and moving the “slider” all the way up to maximum quality,
The results were no better,
I then had a look at the results that were satisfactory from the “pinnacle studio 15 program” I was trying as you will remember these were better results than the Vegas results with no jittering on the parrallell lines etc.
I noticed that the pinnacle program renders at 85,000bps and sony only 60000bps,
So I tried the Vegas again but this time upped the bit rate to 950000 and the results were much better.
Please advise

Thanks Danny.
I like your idea as I too would like to keep the files and (hopefully) create DVDs (blu rays) later.

I quite agree I am reluctant to “go back” to 50i after having seen the superb results of 50p,

Just another question : If I capture in 50p and render in MP4 and play it on my computer, as I have a “Media Centre” computer also with a i7 fast processor, I will still be able to then watch pretty good pictures on my TV won’t I ?

It seems silly that a (fairly cheap) Blu ray player in my computer can play almost any discs and yet if we buy a “dedicated Blu ray disc player” they are limited in this way doesn’t it because my Panasonic TV plays the file beautifully from the camera ! ?

Well what do you recon John?
Should I record in 1080 x1920 50i or should I continue to record in 1080 1920 50p and down convert ?
Which will give the best results ?

Hello again John
I assume you mean Blu ray not DVD.

I have read various articles on the Net saying it’s not possible to put 50p on to disc,

Obviously the only way is to “downgrade” the footage to 50i.
I find this very disappointing ?

The 50p footage I have is absolutely stunning so much better than 50i.
I see both Sony and Panasonic now have camcorders that put out this format,
How long do you think it will take before Vegas puts it into their program so I can edit and produce beautiful Blu ray discs ?

?

Thanks John
What about render settings and settings in DVD Architect ?
