The best way to keep your footage for the future
Not related to video but most data from local judicial proceedings (after 10 years) and local governments is being transferred to microfitch black and white film for long term storage and to save space. Tape is out of the question and DVD's don 't hold up. Not sure about thumb drives however. JJK

Wow... This is bold.
After reading this thread I got to thinking about what future full AI NLE's will be doing. You set your parameters then load all of the video and sound stuff. Hit the complete button and what we do in hours will take microseconds. Just a thought. JJK

Will Vegas 18 work with Windows 7? since Vegas 17 works fine
Now here is a chance to get rich. Make drivers for obsolete software. It is already being done for printers and scanners. And it works as I have it in Windows XP mode in Windows 7. JJK

VEGAS Pro 18 Coming In August!
I wouldn't count on SLI support. I don't think any of the NLE's support SLI. AFAIK it doesn't offer the same advantages that it does for gameplay. Vegas Pro supports more than 32GB RAM IIRC, it just may not always need it in your projects. I know this one has been on the roadmap for a while. What do you mean by "better performance?" Importing Prores Raw (using Atomos Ninja) would be a plus I have no idea if this will be ready or not... All I can say is it is most definitely on the road map, and definitely one of their more high priority targets. The development team has commented publicly on these forums confirming that. I do not speak for the team when I say this, but my gut feeling is that they're putting a LOT of effort into making sure VEGAS 18 is the most solid, stable, reliable VEGAS ever released under MAGIX, and adding new bells and whistles comes second after that part. Basically, what we've been begging them to do since they bought it... fix the video playback engine, GPU support, and memory management, then add the new stuff. I imagine a lot of existing features have finally got the coat of polish we've been asking for, so they will seem far less "half baked". The AI features open up all kinds of new doors... (Before you read further, I'm going to do some speculation about the possibilities of what AI could be used for in VEGAS in the future, as of now they have ONLY announced colorize as the AI supported feature included) if the "colorize" effect does what I think it does (what other AI based colorized filters have been made to do online before), the AI is going to have to identify every object on the screen and color it separately with whatever color it thinks that object should be... which... that means they're already not far from being able to do really cool stuff like automatic mask generation just by turning those identified objects into masks, which would revolutionize color grading by being able to easily rotoscope each element and color it separately. This feature may not be included in the initial release, but the groundwork is built for it to be added eventually if not. Furthermore, AI upscaling has been shown to produce far better results than even the best traditional upscalers, you could use AI to assist with things like media management by having it identify things in the scene and tag the video accordingly (especially if you point at a face and say "this is sally", for instance, then it uses facial recognition to sort all clips of sally into one bin), AI could be used to enhance a limited Rec709 color gamut to HDR Rec2020, AI could be used to create psychedelic transitions and morphing effects, AI could be used for audio restoration and video noise reduction, the cornucopia of possibilities that has been opened with the team exploring AI features for VEGAS is limitless, and one of the main reasons to be excited about what they're doing with 18. So, if you don't see the feature you hoped for when the full list drops, keep these things in mind... We're in a pandemic, that has most certainly impacted VEGAS' development just like it has the development of every other app under the sun. However, if your requested feature isn't in the initial drop, the team has been known to add new features with new updated builds, and I suspect that trend will continue into the future as well, maybe even more so than before due to the pandemic. I'm just a mod around here, every opinion given here is 100% unofficial, but it's my guess based on how I've seen things unfold. Many years ago (2004) I had 11,000 feet of 35 year old faded16mm color film transferred to Betacam SP with automatic color correction, contrast correction, and bad holes in the film auto correction on a 1.5 million dollar machine "On the fly" without "AI". Just thought you would like to know you don't need AI for color correction. JJK

If Magix Vegas had tutorials using pictograms connected by arrow chains for the novice editors who use editing sparingly that would help me a lot on the more complex operations which are used maybe one time then forgotten even if the cost of these chains is an option. JJK
