.One of the plugins I use regularly are newblue PIP and newblue's autocontrast. Especially  the autocontrast I dump on almost every clip (I am a sucker for extra sharpness and color saturation).

My favorite plugin for autocontrast and autoleveling is this free plugin http://www.semw-software.com/en/autolevels/ which is also much faster than NewBlue's.

What do you mean with much faster? The render time or video preview? The newblue autocontrast does not strike me particular as slow, at least I do not perceive it slowing down anything with putting it on almost every clip.  

Ofcourse the rendering time. I see almost no difference in rendering speed with or without the plugin, something I cannot say for the Newblue plugin.

Though this is not a plug-in, Frameserving Vegas w/ Handbrake gets much better quality MP4 than the native Vegas MP4 renders. Many people on the forum are using this to get great MP4 renders.

I Also use Neat video which is a great de-noise application but it severely impacts playback and rendering time, so if you do use it activate it at the final render.

Plural Eyes is a great time saver for multi-cam videos or if you sync chopped video w/ an audio track. You can find Plural Eyes bundled w/ microphone packages like RODE or it goes on sale once a year or so.

I just about finished creating a video, and I'm looking to now render, but I noticed that the website is under construction. Can you please let me know where I can find the files to get handbrake on my vegas pro 14?

Thank you. After hours of attempting to get it to work, it finally worked, but it took way to long to process a 4k file. Vegas gets it done within 30 minutes, whereas handbrake gave me a reading of about 18+ hours, so I stopped that at about 1%. If you can help me optimize the settings for a dji phantom 4 pro file, then that'll be great. Thank you though for everyone's input!

Go with "constant quality" and adjust the x264 Preset. Even on "very fast" the quality of the finished render will probably be higher per bit than you can get from the codecs in Vegas.

Do have a link for this BCC deal? I just went to the site and haven't found that price yet.

This is what I wrote to their support at this address https://borisfx.com/support/open-a-case/

This is a sales question. I had purchased Vegas 14 Suite that came with some BCC Units. I had heard that I can upgrade to BCC 10 Complete for a discounted price. Is this true? What is the price and how do I do about taking advantage of this offer? Would this also make we eligible for the free upgrade to BCC 11 when it comes out?

I got a reply a couple of days later and they sent me a link to pay for it, I payed via pay-pal and they sent me a serial number a day later.
