To do your zoom
Place your text event
Open pan and crop window
Set curser at end of event
Resize event to size desired (key frame will be automatically set)
Close pan/crop windowI had always doen zoom this way. I didn’t realize that you could not keyframe the text size in the text window until I read your question.

Ron,
I think you are on the right track. The first disc was burned using the HQ setting whic Sony states will burn 1 hour of video to a DVD and had the aformentioned problems.I reset the Sony unit to burn at HSP which Sony says will burn 1 1/2 hours on a single disc. Still had some glitches but not nearly as many when replayed on my GoVideo dual deck. Decided to ty it on my Denon high end deck and it played fine! So the media is getting recorded fine, it seems to be a playback issue. Funny thing is I never have a problem playing back DVDA burned discs on the GoVideo unit. I actually have 3 test playback units. 1. Cheap Cyberhome unit. Seems to play everything 2. GoVideo dual deck. Has a problem now and then and an older high end Denon deck which I seem to have the most trouble with. I think older is the important adjective there!
My next test will be to record at SP which Sony states is the 2 hour recording on single layer disc. The HQ setting is their default setting. Its too bad they don’t give bit rates so that we can compare.

Well,
Ran my first test. About one hour of VHS video recorded directly to DVD in real time. Since it is not an “authoring app” I of couse did not expect anything fancy. My first surprise was a good one. It actually placed a thumbnail picture and a menu. Of course you couldn’t choose what pic. The next thing I found was that the video and sound quality was actually quite good. Now for the bad – and totally unacceptable. Apparently the encoder could not keep up with the incoming video and there were NUMEROUS glitches where the video would just stop for a second and then catch up. Funny though, the sound appeared to continue unaffected.
Now to see if there are some settings that can correct this. This was a test just right out of the box. -
Need a little more information.
What did you render your movie as. Should have been MainConcept MPEG2 with an AC3 audio render if you are going to DVD.
Where that file renders to is set up in the Preferences.
If your hard drive is formated NTSF (as it would be if you are running XP) there should not be the 2GB file size problem.It might be that you are trying to put too large a move on a single layer DVD. How long is you movie. You can letting DVDA render the Mpeg and have it fit it to the disc.
Sorry, not really sure what you are saying your problem is.

These are probably interlace lines. If your final media is due to be watched on TV (interlaced) you might try going ahead and burning a DVD and see what it looks like played back on the TV.

Vegas uses all the fonts that are installed on your computer. Some work better than others in video. If you know one you want just install it to your computer, Vegas will pick it up.

I have been using an Epson stylus photo 900 for printing my DVDs and have been very satisfied EXCEPT:
Tried a generic ink cartridge and worked horribly. May have been that one bad one in a bunch but am afraid to try again.
Also use a Primera automated printer for larger runs. Have never had a problem with it.
Use Discus software to set up the printing in both.

If you want to spread things out farther, I would say two monitors. If you want to use a secondary monitor for HDV preview, two monitors.
In other words two monitors??

Some cameras have a switch (usually in a menu) that changes the port from input to output and back. Could this have gotten changed on your camera?

Just a thought that you have probably already checked but is does the same thing happen no matter what setting your preview window is on best as compared to preview?
