Multi Angle movies... how?

SwissyJim wrote on 2/21/2011, 10:27 PM
Ok... I've searched here and Google. How the heck do I make a movie with 2 different angle choices? Is it within Studio (v10), or one I have the files in DVD Architect (v5)? I've seen posts abut people having problems doing it, but nothing on HOW to do it. The online help has nothing an ANGLE or MULTI... and I don't see any options in the commands.

I have 2 60 minute video clips... synchronized perfectly - one is forward facing and the other is rear. Do I render each with audio, or only one, since they will have the same audio playing no matter what angle you view.Are they rendered as 2 movie files, or as one with 2 layers?

I plan on burning a Blu disk, and have made single angle disks with no problem.

help!
Jim

Multi-angle is one of the features that distinguishes the full version of DVD Architect (DVDA Pro) from the cut-down version that you have (DVDA Studio).

You cannot make multi-angle discs with DVDA Studio. To do this with the Sony software you would need to upgrade to the pro version of DVDA, which is included in Vegas Professional.

Just so we're clear -- are you talking about creating DVDs with optional second camera angles, or are you talking about editing a movie in Vegas Movie Studio HD that cuts between two different camera angles of the same scene?

What I am looking to do, is this: I did a flight over the island of Kauai in an ultralight, and there was a camera facing forward and one rear. I'd like to have the forward facing view as the main movie, with the option to hit the angles button the the bluray remote to switch the view to the rear facing. So each view is a full length movie, and you can choose which view to watch and when. Clear as mud? LOL... hope that explains what I'd like to do.

Otherwise, I figured out how to do picture in picture video so I can do that, but I'd really like to have the angles feature. If I have to upgrade to Pro, I dunno if that feature alone is worth it for me...

If the option is to switch camera angles is on the disc then, yes, this is more a function of DVD Architect, and would probably be better posted to that forum.

Though, as noted earlier, that function would not be available in the Studio version of the program. Only in Pro.
