I understand you better than you can imagine. But keep in mind that all software has problems, so there are updates. I could list several that exist in Premiere and Resolve, but that's not the point. I like vegas for simplicity and objectivity in

RE: Davinci resolve 14

Blackmagic seems to be good at making innovative and solid software. 100% GPU load, CPU breaking a sweat too... Meanwhile Vegas has like 30-50% GPU load, CPU might max out depending on codec used. It would be interesting to do some side by side

RE: GH5 and Davicci resolve 12.5?

Davincci Resolve 14 is insane on my high end system, AMD 1950X @4ghz. I import some sample native GH5 10 bit 400mbps footage on a 10 bit project setting in Resolve and start all kinds crazy FX on it. I also can scrub the time line no problem, lock

RE: New build for Vegas Pro - Intel/nVidia or AMD Ryzen/GPU?

Cliff, If you're planning on getting the new Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4k it comes with the Studio (paid) version of Resolve. The way secondary preview works in Resolve is different. They don't allow it completely on the second monitor like in

RE: Cineform vs XVAC intermediates in Vegas Pro

I can't tell how much worth an upgrade to VP14 could be. More stable than VP12 or VP13? I'd say no, while on my system, there neither is a stability problem with VP14 or VP15. But for sure this differs from system to system. See the list of

RE: Terrible performance for editing video in Vegas 15

I also have a problem with my footage from Blackmagic ProRes. Very slow preview. I thought the VP15 would be fine, but it's not. I upgraded 4x and hoped the bugs would be fixed and GPU support fine.If the VP15 will not be fixed, I will have to

Last but not least, some great motion tracking. Built in integration with something like Mocha or a proprietary equivalent would be great. The less stuff we have to do outside of Vegas, and the less plugins we have to buy to give Vegas features that

RE: Let's Talk About Lower Thirds

BlackMagic fusion is free and is like AfterEffects x 10. You can do pretty much anything with it. AE is a little faster for motion graphics, but you can do it all in fusion and you can also do anything you would ever need to do to your videos.

RE: Trouble sorting out codecs in VP15

Bits per pixel only tells you the efficiency of the compression. The only time it reflects BIT DEPTH is uncompressed, which yours obviously is. Your math is not correct. Bit depth and chroma subsampling are mutually exclusive quantifiers. An example

RE: Trouble sorting out codecs in VP15

Thanks MV. Yeah, I saw the 16 bitness. Oddly PPro claims it's 8-bit but maybe that's because the project is 8-bit. Or it's lying. Or both. I don't see the reference to level 6. Is that knowledge in your head or information in the text? I'll follow
