I’m working on a project that goes something like this:
1. Capture from my DV camcorder in standard format
2. I did some editing, cuts, color correcting and made regions of all the clips.
3. Rendered out the project to these settings. Save as type: Video for Windows AVI, Default template: NTSC DV, checked Save project markers in media, and made sure that best was selected and all else is at default settings.
I rendered the project, and then bring in the rendered avi to the time line and view the regioned clips. I have noticed that the regions have shifted from there original spots. The regions are no longer at cuts that I saved them on.
I have deleted the original DV files so I can’t go back and correct this and I have done 4 tapes like this not knowing that this was happening.
I have since found out that I could correct this by rendering the DV to:
Video for Windows AVI, Default template: Template (uncompressed), save project markers in media. Project set to best. Under the video tab I set the video format to NTSC DV and left all else at the default settings.
I rendered out the project, brought in the rendered project to the timeline and viewed the region clips and everything was fine.
First question, does this sound right the way I did this the second way? I have done this the first way in Vegas 4 and I didn’t have a problem like I had in Vegas 5.
Second question, if I bring in the already rendered avi file with the incorrect region markers, move the markers in the trimmer, save it and rerendered it the second way of rendering that will save the region markers in the correct spots, Will I lose any quality of any significant?
Third question, if there a better method to render out a DV file to a DV avi file that will have the least quality loss. I don’t want to use the straight uncompressed setting, because it makes a huge file size and I don’t have that kind of room for all the tape that I have to edit.
Thanks for your help.
