Hi, I have a sony DCR-SR220 standard def HDD camcorder and I use multiple editing programs, Vegas platinum 9 for putting my videos together and adding SFX and FXLab for adding visual effects. In order to edit in FXLab I need to render my videos in QuickTime, but when they are complete I prefer WMV.
For the type of video I get from my camcorder what are the best settings for each file type (Quicktime and WMV)? Beyond the rendering options for each when choosing to render video I know there are a bunch of other options that can improve video quality, but I don't know much about them and don't want to mess things up.
I ask because there is a very noticable drop in quality between video straight from the camera and video thats been rendered.
Sorry for the long post, thanks for any help.
