I would be nice if Sony would overcome some very old bugs in future versions. Some of them exists since version 2:
- Capture Tool
In PAL versions the Minimum Clip Length MUST be deactivated. If there is a minimum clip length defined - even if it is only 1 frame - then nothing will be captured in normal capture mode having Scene Detection turned on.
- Fied Order
In PAL versions the field order of many Canopus DV files and any uncompressed files is recognized wrong. Vegas says it is Upper Field First, though actually them are Lower Field First. This seems to be bound to a line given in the Vegas .ini-File.
This bugs seems to exist only in PAL versions.
Another thing which makes me curious is why the the still image export for JPEG and PNG for PAL video still is set to 786x576 instead of 787x576. Exporting as 786 and reimporting makes the files having a (very small) black border on both sides and having a (very small) horizontal squeezing. The correct export size should be 787x576. No black border no squeezing if 787x576 is used. Best would be having the choice wether to export to 720x576 or to 787x576.
If there is any chance please fix these issues in upcoming versions.
