    If you burn it to a video-CD (mpeg1) yes, many set-top players can handle those. But the quality isn’t all that much better than VHS.

    Worked perfectly! Thanks so much, Gary! The stills look wonderful.

    Running an e6600 dual-core 2 – and compared to my p4 3.0 – the dual-core 2 flies through renders, even when I’m doing something else on the same computer.

    The best place to research is probably Newegg.com. I went with LG and Lite-On burners – after years of using Pioneer drives. I’m getting 16x burns without any problems from either burner.

    Perhaps it’s time for Sony to develop it’s own intermediate editing codec – or use some one else’s. I just built a dual core system on the fastest motherboard out there and it’s still a pain to preview footage. I hope they are reading these threads.

    Just a thought – but do you have hardware acceleration set to full on your video card?

    Is there any other program running in the background that is trying to grab hold of the video file?

    Are you running an automatic defragmenter on the drive where your video files are being pulled from?

    Once you move the camera (pan,dolly,zoom) in a green-screen shoot – you enter the realm of track motion – (matching the background motion with the camera motion.) It really starts to get tricky at that point. So try and pick static shots for your backgrounds and match the camera angle.

    [BackwoodsTerrorMovie] “I’m using Sony DVD Architect 3.0, and am wondering if anyone knows what is going on.”

    Try re-installing the latest upgrade. And make sure Nero (or some other burning software) is not running. Something is fooling DVDA into thinking it’s burning when it’s not – it has the ability to read the burn and kick out bad disks for burning problems.

    You can render to QT right out of Vegas – ready to go.

    There’s so much compression going on in any web-video codec, that starting from uncompressed footage is more than a bit of overkill.

    I get great encodes going 1:1 – exact same frame size and frame rate – QT to FLV (I add a little sharpening and contrast to the QT encode)

    If you are going 4×3 out (320×280) you probably don’t want to letterbox that small of a frame. My suggestion is to shoot DV for web-video – less hassle, and if encoded well, will do just fine for that small frame size.
