Vegas 19 will support Blackmagic Raw

Apparently it will support Blackmagic Raw, but support will still be in beta stage upon release. This is great news for Blackmagic camera owners.

RE: How do I use sapphire ofx effects builder in Vegas Pro

If it is a standalone program, then by that very definition it works as, well, a standalone program and not as a plugin. In any event, from BorisFX's compatibility webpage - https://borisfx.com/products/host-compatibility/ - shows Sapphire Builder

RE: Western Digital Black Edition Performance Drive good enough for 1080p?

Most broadcast houses I know use Sony, Panasonic, GVG (and Canon) cameras and various types of recording devices (EVS, Sony, Blackmagic, etc.). So the recording video types range from XDCAM HD, DVC Pro, ProRes, DNxHD, XAVC (H.264) and others. H.264

RE: Vegas Pro seems great, but I'm ready to throw my PC out the window!

Sorry, these issues have nothing to do with the Vegas app itself. Vegas actually runs without any issues—it's Windows' OS that doesn't seem to be cooperating. The thread is really just me wondering out loud if I should abandon the platform

RE: Gh5 4k 24/30p problem

Have you tried just using the free version of DaVinci Resolve? Yes. That doesn't work as JVC-footage is not supported by Blackmagic. I've got version 16, so unless they changed that in version 17 (which I highly doubt) I only need to upgrade 😀@ JN-

RE: How good is VEGAS Pro?

You can download Vegas Pro as trial, but with Avid you can get the limited version - Avid Media Composer First - for free, without any time limitations. But it has other limitations (from the top of my head) - 5 bins, 5 video tracks, 8 audio tracks,

Just curious: How many you have dedicated PCs for running only Vegas?

I began my Vegas journey with a brand-new SSD with a fresh install of Windows 10 Pro 64-bit (plus all current updates) on a 3.5GHz Xeon machine with 32GB of ECC RAM—no other applications running on the machine. I just bought VMS build 221 and my

RE: Blackmagic Intensity Pro 4K recognized by Vegas' capture tool?

I don't know if VMS has the HDV/SDI capture option, but using that in Vegas Pro, I can capture from a Blackmagic Intensity HDMI (not 4k). You might try that. I can also capture using Virtualdbub.
