Perrone -- thanks for your help with using this codec. I thought editing with it would be beyond my old machine, so thanks for the confirmation. This codec will be useful for colour correction work. Take up less space than using sequence frames, and I can't afford an above-8-bit square-pixel version of CineForm anyway, so this fills a niche for me.

From the Vegas timeline rendering 1 minute on my machine takes 7 mins 45 secs (for the 10980p/25 36 mbps option). Which utility do you use to transcode to DNxHD? Is it noticeably faster?

Thanks.

On the ftp site, go to the avid folder. You'll see an xdcam_to_avid folder. Utility is there, and yes, it's faster than rendering on the timeline. However, I learned last night that it does not like 720/60p!

Quick time Captured in FCP in Vegas 8

I run into a trouble. Have got lot of footage captured in FCP 2 from Canon XH A1. My Mac went to hospital for a week. Now I got project at hand (deadline 18th Feb!) and need to process, edit the files in Vegas 8. When I drag the .mov file onto the time-line only stereo sound track appears no video track above it.

Would people please advice how this can be cured?

Many thanks,
Pavel
