I have some footage of my son playing on his new power wheels four wheeler that was given to him by his "grand pappy". I was going ot post his first time riding it online, but instead of a 20 minute video I wanted to speed it up.
I open optical flow from Borisfx and set my parameters (I actually only change it from a velocity of 100 to 500 and from upper to progressive for field order) and leave everything else as it is.
I see that my entire event is still on the timeline but the area that no longer exists is now just black frames with the audio still the same length. No problem really, I find the last frame where video still exists and I split the event at that point. I then realize that my video footage has been speed up yet again due to the split. This is not the desired effect I am going for and seeing how I am not using Premiere Pro or Final Cut, the help file doesn't really apply to me as a Vegas user so it is of no help concerning this issue.
Here are my questions:
1. How do I utilize optical flow to speed up a clip 5 fold and trim the resulting blank "slug"?
2. How do I get the audio to equal the length of the video event (like when you do a control drag from within Vegas)?
I know using optical flow is probably overkill for this particular home movie, but I wanted to try it out before I actually needed to use it on a real project... glad I did.
