RE: GoPro video files have slight pops in between then on Vegas timeline

I think half the people aren't reading your post. Can you post a zoomed-in view of the timeline between two of these clips? Could be something as simple as a snap or quantize setting you need to change. I don't have any issues with any other

RE: GoPro video files have slight pops in between then on Vegas timeline

@Liberty610 Another thing to try is enabling Legacy AVC or HEVC decoding depending upon what type of recording you are doing. The so4compoundplug.dll has had a checkered history of properly decoding GoPro files, especially maintaining audio sync.

Doesn't GoPro have an APP to transfer and connect files? Can you format the GoPro memory card NTFS or something that takes larger files? I am not sure about the app. But I did think about formatting to NTFS via windows and then trying it, but I have

I have done it with a sd card reader, but I don't think you can use Device Explorer from a hardddrive. But there are commands that will connect. Hopefully someone more familiar with that method will chime in. I just recorded another new clip,

GoPro video files have slight pops in between then on Vegas timeline

Hi all, I just got a go pro hero 9 black camera. I recorded a good 15 to 20 straight minuets with it for a test. What I found is, the GoPro automatically creates separate files of the video after the file gets to a certain size. This particular test

RE: VEGAS Pro dislike DNXHR codec

@alifftudm95 Hi Aliff, That is because FxHome wrote their own support for cineform in Hitfilm (Vegas fx) but Magix are still reliant upon the VFW .avi legacy codec installed by the old GoPro installers. I think you can still find this on the DrZen

RE: VEGAS Pro dislike DNXHR codec

@alifftudm95 I had no luck with avid DNX files either. The obvious "standard" intermediate would be Prores, but DR doesn't export this on PC, and Vegas doesn't see Prores timecode anyway. Grass Valley HQX is the most solid choice; alternatively

RE: Rendering hangs up with a memory leak - Vegas 18 Pro

If it's from a Gopro, it does not record at the same bit rates as the Panasonic cameras. It is not, it are AVC files of my DJI pocket, with the MediaInfo Bitrate is 100MB/s, that's pretty high, but if you provide on a cloudservice, so we are able
