combustion

hey yall, got some questiones. I am big into combustion, and my problem is this, cross-codecing.. (if thats a word) I capture using vegas and edit my piece. I then render out each piece, uncompressed from my timeline, then i work on that clip in vegas, do my work there, then re-synch it to the original. I have a feeling deep down that my footage is getting muddy due to all the codecs being used, and re-rendered and such. Just wondering if anyone else is in my boat with this? I'd love to hear some ideas.

hey everyone, just one quick question to run by you guys. I am about to start editing a short film in vegas 4. The pix was shot on pd-150 and sound recorded separatly on a dat. After i sync each shot, i am going to re-render each clip out married to that good DAT audio. My question is this.

lets say the shot on tape 4 started at timecode 34:45:26.02 and i capture about a minute after that. after is sync it, i will really need that same timecode, and I havent been able to get vegas to render the new pix at that timecode, its goes back to 00:00:00.00 anyone know a way to fix this?
