velocity envelopes
 

I'm trying to speed up a clip. I right clicked to velocity envelope but it only goes to 300% when you drag that green bar higher. is there a way to go beyond 300% in vegas 6?

Ctrl+Click+Drag on the edge of your event making it shorter. You get the 300% + 400%

Thanks, I tried that and it sped things up but I still need it faster. Seems that method takes you only so far. Any way to increase it?

If you need faster than 12x, render it out, put that render on the timeline, and repeat up to another 12x. If you still need faster, repeat again.

Nested VEG files can also be used if you wish to skip the render part.

It's a cineform file on the timeline. Should I render it as wmv? It's gonna end up on SD DVD.

Unless your DVD player handles WMV files natively, you'll need to render it as MPEG-2 using either one of the presets or a custom one.

For the intermediate renders, keep it the same as the original - Cineform.

When I go to "Render" and "Save as" there's no Cineform on the list of file types.
Is this normal? This is Vegas 6d.

Pick AVI as the file type and then look at the options available there.
