Sorry that I missed you already tried disabling GPU. Out of curiosity, tho’, what happens if you import (i.e. nest) the veg file into a new project and render?

Please see if disabling GPU acceleration in Preference setting will solve the system low on memory problem.

Hi Kevin,

I have an unused Vegas Platinum 13 that I purchased last year as a package with other Sony software I was interested. Since I have a Vegas Pro 13, I do not need the Platinum 13. If you like, I’d be happy to give it to you as an early Christmas gift. (^_-) Leave me you email address here so that I can get you the serial.

Hi,

I think you can download the trials here.

Good luck.

Look at the middle part where it says…

12 stops of Latitude from V-Log L

*Images captured from actual footage shot on AG-DVX200 and graded for web.

The AG-DVX200 features a V-Log L function that is equivalent to the V-Log and curve characteristics provided on the new VariCam Series. Its 12-stop wide dynamic range accommodates cinema production work requiring post-process color gradation. In addition to this, gamma curves can be selected from 8 modes, including CINE-LIKE V, CINELIKE D, FILMLIKE 1/2/3, HD and SD.

* The VariCam35 V-Log has 14+ stops.

Hi Roger, me again.

Since I do not own DVX200, I just downloaded a sample DVX200 footage from Vimeo.

https://vimeo.com/140368754

I then split the footage in Vegas, separated the vlog part and applied the LUT for DVX200 which I downloaded from the Panasonic site (“VLog_to_V709_forDVX200_ver100.cube”). The LUT instantaneously gave me vivid colors. I attach the before and after screenshots. If you can get a similar result, I believe the Panasonic LUT via the VisionColor plug-in is working for you.

Hi Roger,

Since I know nothing about DVX200 as to how it should be set up to achieve the best results out of log files, may I suggest that you refer to this 279 pages guidebook (free from Panasonic) specifically written for DVX200? It seems to have a fair amount of helpful info on v-log and LUTs.

https://info.panasonic.com/dvx200-ebook.html

Also pages like below should be helpful.

Best regards.

Apologies that I incorrectly assumed that you were using a GH4. For DVX200, I suggest that you try the following page (you can download the LUT specific for DVX200).

https://pro-av.panasonic.net/en/products/ag-dvx200/exp.html

1. Difference in the files

.TXT : Compatible with Quantel Pablo
.Cube : Compatible with Davinci Resolve
.VLT : Compatible with VariCam 35,AG-DVX200,AG-GH4U

By the way, you could open .cube and .vlt in Windows Notepad where you could see, I believe, a combination of RGB values.

2. LUT is just a conversion table as to how a flat-looking LOG-shot file should look like in an intended viewing environment (e.g. REC 709). After applying a LUT, you are naturally expected to further work in post to take advantage of a wider dynamic range LOG files, which is the whole point.

3. Ultimately I think you are free to work in post without a LUT. I am sorry but my experience with LOG is limited. There appear to be some good LOG samples on YouTube using DVX200 and might I suggest that you view (or search Google) to decide whether or not you should continue to work in LOG?

I believe that the “VariCam 35 3DLUT V-Log to V-709” which you can download from the Panasonic site can be used to get ordinary video-looks (BT.709 for HDTV standards). I tested it and it seemed to work.

Shooting in LOG, if properly shot, is said to yield wider dynamic range videos so it might not necessarily be “film-look”. However, in order to get the most out of such LOG files, people say that we need at least 10 bit 422 color sampling space hence, in GH4 terms, we realistically need an external recorder such as Atomos Shogun/Ninja Assassin. It’s not an option for me (at least for now).
