As a newbie with VegasVideo 3,...I have been amazed and delighted with every lesson in the tryout process. However, if there are any criticisms there is one! It's a biggie in mind!!! If I'm wrong in my logic,...I'm very flexible to other opinions!
When I plucked down the cash for Vegas Video 3, I expected everything to be set to go.
Who at Sonic Foundry made the decision to addtionally make you pay for the MainConcept MPEG1 and 2 before it could work and import/export those formats!!!
That, in my opinion was purely "bonehead"!! They should have worked it in the cost of the VV3 software and left it alone! That agreement with Mainconcept should have been handled and PAID for behind the scenes and long before the software shipped so that it could have been "TRULY PART of Vegas 3" and not another hidden cost to bite you after you just spent dollars on the program.
It just doesn't sit well and I would rather pay it within the cost of VV3 ONCE, as opposed to separately or twice.
Otherwise, call it a plugin and consider it what it truly is. An option.
That's it! Everything else seems first class so far and I can't wait to dive in deeper!!! My compliments to Sonic Foundry!!!
