  RE: OT - Codec Survey

  RE: Advice on GPU choice for Vegas 10 or 12
  The i7 you listed will render AVC much faster than any all-in-one you had back with VV8. The onboard GPU will also most likely accelerate faster than the All-in-one you had back with VV8. Memory: As a general rule of thumb I always look for the

  RE: apple quicktime .MOV movie files
  Just an FYI - http://www.oldversion.com/windows/quicktime/ Black screen with audio is most certainly a codec issue. Vegas seems to be optimized for XDCAM and uncompressed. You may want to figure out your work flow from your camera and convert

  RE: VHS - Best way to improve quality?
