I rented a new JVC HM-700 that did not have the XDCAM converter back on it yet. I liked the fact that I could record on a medium that I did not have to buy or rent a playback device. The camera worked great by the way!

I’ll just have to work wit tech support to figure out the crash problem.

Thanks
you restored my confidence in VEGAS, I will work with tech support to get this problem fixed. I converted my AVCHD files in a manner that JVC recomended for VEGAS. The rental house did not have the XDCAM converter installed on the camera at the time; that worked fine last winter.

I know what the specs say but I wanted to know what the real world might prefer. I finished an edit useing xdcam transcoded with Sony’s software and it worked but my computer might have been suffering from to small power supply.

[Rob Burkhardt]

I think I have about thesame setup as you but I built this really fast to finish an edit job 3 months ago and don’t remember all the spacifics of my machine.

It kept crashing my last computer but i also had to small of a powersupply to run all my periphials; you can’t trust a professinal computer geek when he tells you he can custom build a windows computer.

Thanks
I tend to edit at wierd hours so I’ll have to schedual a time to get to gether with tech support.

Steve,
Thanks for getting back so quickly

I have vegas pro 8 latest updates. I tried running in xp 32bit.

I am trying to edit AVCHD that has gone through Caliberated {Q}XD so that I can edit it in vegas.

I just wondered what is the minimum software/CPU/RAM you would use to run vegas with out problems. Or how did you customize your machinne?

[Rob Burkhardt]

Here’s the scoop on my editor
I’m running Vegas pro8 on a windows XP 64bit

I demoed a JVC GY-HM700 Here’s the link https://pro.jvc.com/prof/attributes/features.jsp?model_id=MDL101851&feature_id=01 and recorded in the SD format to a 16gig SDHC card. This plays back in final cut pro but for me to play it back JVC sys I need to use Calibrated{Q} XD Decode https://www.calibratedsoftware.com/QXD.asp witch does let me watch it in the quick time viewern but their site will not let me order it yet so I don’t know how much it will cost.

Is there a better way to down load into vegas snd not have to buy this add on?

[Rob Burkhardt]

Thanks Jon
I did some more tests and I do have video on the card I’ll have to go to another forum to ask about how to use in vegas

[Rob Burkhardt]

The audio recorded fine I am haveing trouble getting the video off the card. What conversion software and edit system do you use?
