Sony: How about a link page for 3rd party plug-ins?

I notice that the Sony Media Softare paper catalog has descriptions of Excalibur, Tsunami, etc., but there's no equivalent on the Sony website.

I think Sony's missing a marketing opportunity by not advertising the growing number of plug-ins, scripts, presets, or add-ons to Vegas. Adobe has a "3rd Party" developer page; Sony should, too. I think the scripting capability, the freely SDK, the plethora of .veg files and the ability to save effects presets and chains make Vegas the closest thing to an "open source" editing solution out there.

A page of links could include:
Excalibur
Tsunami
DeBugMode (Plug-In Pack, Wax 2.0)
Sundance Media
Boris

and all the other plug-ins, etc., both free and priced, that I can't recal right now. (See, this is why we need a comprehensive list maintained in an obvious place!)

You mean something like this one?

I'll be happy to add additional links if anyone desires

How about Adorage Magic PC Volume 7:
http://www.adorage.de/gb/index.html

"Volume 7 delivers extraordinary and impressive animationsas well as professional compositings for transitions, PiP effects and splitscreens.
Hundreds of high quality Flag animations and transitions, Globe animations (with target stop possibility), new particle- and Light effects and many more flexible usable Tricks are included in this package.

Already included: the complete optimised Version 2.5 of the effectsoftware, which is approxm. 40% faster, as the older versions (Thsi V 2.5 version is also single available without other effects)

You will be impressed with the new effects and the possibilities to expand your library with these incredible materials."

Thanks jetdv, for the great hint.

Ed,

Yes, exactly like that one. :-) Great work!

I was thinking, though that Sony might want to toot their own (and third-party developers, too) by providing an "official" link. Would probably boost sales of Excalibur and Tsunami, too.

Hope they work better than their web site.
