You can easily create that effect in Vegas, by having your clip
on two timelines (one above the other)…Apply the Defocus filter
on the bottom clip and the Circle,Centre cookie cutter filter on the
top clip…from there you simply tweak until you get what you want.

Agaton, If you have 1920×1080 footage on the timeline within
a 1280×720 template, you will have choppy playback in the preview
window if you dont have a really powerful computer….that is
normal and expected.
Use the Dynamic ram preview to preview your edits as you go along
in your editing workflow.Once you get used to that workflow it becomes
very straight forward.

Hi Frederic,
Although i have no samples to assist you with at the moment, i just want
to let you know how much i personally appreciate the hard work you have
put in, in creating two much needed, powerful yet straight-forward
plugins.
The best of which is Exposure. For a long time i have wanted a plugin
in vegas like the Shadow/Highlight in after effects, to aid in brightening dark shots in a natural way….Exposure fills that gap
perfectly.

Keep up the good work.

I can guarantee you James, that upgrading to Windows 7
and Vegas 10.0e all that issue will be cleared up along with
added benefits at your fingertips.

First you have to set the template to the dimensions of
the video format you are gonna edit….And render out in that
same format/dimension according to what you are doing.
That is why you get that black box. Where exactly is this project
of yours destined for?

Have you restarted Vegas after you rendered out a video file?
As mentioned, afterwards it will remember your last rendered format.

What you are experiencing always occurs due to the video format
you have on the timeline. This happens to me on several occasions, and
its always due to what i mention above, seeing that some of the footage
i work with derives from clients. But i would advise you to get off
Vista and unto windows 7 in the meantime.

That is probably because you dont have the Dolby Digital codec on your
system….You have to install DVD Architect to unlock all its features.
