If yes, how did you do it? Thanks, John |

I generally write 30 minutes to a DVD RW to take home and check colors, sound, etc on a normal SDTV. I then check the DVD on our 72" plasmas at the office. If I like it, I burn the full project. |
So my 5D Mk2 shoots 1080/30fps so should i produce an AVI in Vegas at that? (ie no resizing) I had been rendering in Vegas to 720.
I did find Lanczos scaler. Where is the HuffYUV or Lagarith lossless in Vegas and in VirtualDub. I've spent hours looking for those suckas!! Thanks |

In Virtual Dub they are under the Video/Compression/Select Video Compression list John |

The Huffyuv and Lagarith codec will not be on your system unless you downloaded and installed them. Definitely worth doing that, especially since they are free. Richard |
Thanks
They are in ther drop down for configure only for certain video formats - they are not in the video format dropdown. Maybe before i die i'll be able to get enough info to do this. Appreciate all the help....I'll keep trying. |
Thanks Richard,
That helps....i'll google those items and install them ( i actually see them out from the configure) under the Encoder tab of the FFdShow video codec Thanks Harry |
So i've come a long way in the last couple of days and i appreciate the patience shown here with me.
At this point i've refined my process to this: 1. Pull .MOV (native 1920x1080p/30fps) into timeline 2. Edit video, add titles, cross fades, credits, whatever - finish content of movie. 3. Render in Vegas Studio to 1920x1080p/30fps with Lagarith pixel ar 1:1 (if i play resultant AVI in Windows Media Player it'd like learning how to drive a stick shift - figured that was my poor computer cound'nt process the full HD but the MP2 will be smooth) 4. Pull the full sized AVI into VirtualDub 5. In VirtualDub set the filter - add resize with Lanczos scaler to 720x405 (Match original AR) 6. In VirtualDub choose compression type for output to a Lagarith or HuffYUV AVI (Think i may have skipped this step in VD though i did this already in Vegas when i rendered....do i need to do it twice?) 7. Save .avi file 7. Bring that into DVDA and select single movie and it will automatically convert it to a MP2 for DVD burn. I'm still crankin the VD ouput at this time........I'll take it all the way through DVDA and report back my progress. Again thank you for all the great advice here!! |
Harry, you're just about there brother!

Not quite sure what you were trying to say here, but it is my *belief* that taking the video back into Vegas for the mpeg2 render will yield higher quality results.

Perrone, Thank you for all of the helpful information that you have been sharing with us. When I posed the question when I started the thread, I had no idea how much useful information would come out in the discussion.

I worked with the same guy on a different project and had to figure out HD PC <-> Mac workflow. That one took a while too! I've gotten so much good info from this place, I am just glad to be able to give a little back from what I've learned on long, frustrating nights. |
