RE: Panasonic 4k MP4 Files

I now have some experience with the Panasonic VX981k. It's one of 4 cameras in an multicam edit, so I let it build the proxy. That takes real time, i.e., if the video is an hour, it takes an hour to build the proxy. This is on a AMD 8350 8 core

RE: V14 preview speed

Thanks for the anwers. Xberk, Nick's post had already been on the original Vegas forum, it's more of a generic guide. Bravof, I cannot quite imagine what you describe to be true. Maybe v14 has improved - but preview speed has been Vegas's achilles

RE: Most Optimized Hard Drive Setup for Vegas Pro?

What ever was suggested here may work fine for a single cam edit, multicam HD and higher and you will need faster drives and separated the source drive from the render drive. in my opinion, that is always good practice. I am always amazed by the

I started with Vegas Audio and that is pretty much how I use Vegas now. I am up to date with Vegas14. However my main video editor is EDIUS 8.5WG. I too have Resolve free version and for $299 I may well buy the full version. I have no expectation

Neat Video splitting screen under one circumstance.

Hi, I'm wondering if someone else could try this and looking for thoughts if this is a Vegas or Neat Video problem. If I have a 1080 50i timeline, and I place a 25p clip on it, then if I add to the 25p clip, the FX of Neat Video (4.2 and 4.5 tested)

You match the camera footage by adding the FX as Media FX. This can be done before or even after the multicam track has been made.

If you were changing many of them in a loop, make sure the "undoblock" is outside of the loop. Otherwise you will get one for every event changed instead of one for the entire process. For example, in my multicam tool, it creates one entry for "undo
