THANK YOU!
I’ve been trying to figure out how to turn that off for weeks!!!

I feel your pain.
I used to use Premiere many years ago- like maybe version 5? Once I spent a few hours with Vegas that was the end of that.
We’re now adopting Adobe Creative Cloud at work- so I’m attempting to make the switch to Premiere. A resource to help with that transition would be great! But I guess Vegas is still sort of an also-ran in the world on NLEs.
For now I’m finishing up current projects in Vegas and dabbling in Premiere. I’d forgotten about transcoding footage and sequences and such. Eventually I’ll make the switch- but it won’t be easy! Vegas makes so many tasks so dang quick and easy.

Aha.
I like that answer!
I’m changing the project settings right now.

Isn’t there also a difference between preview via the Trimmer window and watching it on the Timeline?

Thanks!
I tried exporting as MP4 but it defaults to a low bitrate and looked a little pixelated. I was going to try and bump up the bitrate and see where that would get us.
Hopefully they don’t have a problem using the Sony plug-in!

Since I can render H.264 directly from Vegas it’s never come up.
I guess if you need to do it in two steps instead of one look into the best format for importing into Quicktime. Probably MOV?

Try rendering a Quicktime file using the Animation or Motion JPEG preset. They look pretty damn good.
If they really have to have H.264 use the MP4 render and you should be able to choose that option. Then just change the extension to .MOV and don’t tell anyone.

Playback? As in playing on the timeline?
It will be horrible if you edit the native HD files from the camera. Unless you have a monster machine. Or two!

Just a follow up to help any other poor slob who’s struggling with this problem…
The Raylight plug-in works. And the regular one too, the Ultra version is NOT required. I just downloaded the demo and I can pull the MOV file right into the timeline without any problems whatsoever.
I still think it sucks that Apple and Panasonic seem to have worked so hard to keep Windows machines from getting at this format… seems like the type of thing all the Mac guys tell me Microsoft does!
