Does anybody of you notice that if you import and use Canopus DV files in Vegas they have the wrong field order?
I have a project with lots of stuff coming from BetaSP. This was captured by Canopus RexEdit using the Canopus Breakoutbox with YUV interface. I copied those files onto a external harddrive and imported them into a Vegas project. Now all the Canopus DV files showing up the wrong field order - Upper Field First instead of Lower Field First. I retested this by making a very slow slomo in Vegas and actually there are visible jumpbacks to be seen after rendering: caused by the inverted field order.
O.k. - the fix is to pop up the files property dialog and to change the field order back to Lower Field. Tested - rendered - and fine again. I even found somebody who wrote me a script which does change the field order of all the clips of a project from Upper Field to Lower Field (thanks to Casiomeier and Klaymen for their help!).
But I'm still curious why Canopus DV shows up with wrong field order in Vegas. Same happens if I use Canopus Let's Edit and render a DV file which I import in Vegas then. Shows up with Upper Field First.
And I even tested this by importing those Canopus DV in Magix Video DeLuxe. Same as in Vegas. Wrong field order.
Don't know whether it depends on this: It's PAL here.
Any guess what might going on there?
