How to supscript letters in credit roll?
Holding down the ALT key and typing on the numeric pad 0169 or 0174 works for me. But maybe that's not what you're taking about?

Sony HVR-Z7U fixed!
the reason I went with the Z7 a few years ago, I wasn't ready to trust a CF card with my video.I am still pretty "old-school" in most ways. I loved the idea of tape as my backup. That said in the many years I owned the Z7 I think there was only one time I needed to go back to the tape to retrieve a shot.

Sony HVR-Z7U fixed!
Well that's is exactly my configuration a Z7 and a GH3! Had the Z7 for many years now and still love it, especially for "long-form" event coverage. And not having to "rig" for audio and such like the GH3!! It also plays real nice with my Atomos Ninja Blade. The 422 coming out of the Z7's HDMI port really helped my green-screen shots. To upgrade a bit I am starting to look real hard at the new JVC GY-LS300 though. I think I would love that sensor and still be able to use my Panasonic lenses on a "real" video camera....

Need Chroma Key Tips
I have loved the Boris key plugins, they are awesome...but I did run into a situation with a well lit key that for some reason I just couldn't get clean with the Boris filters, I'm sure it was me but I had worked with similar shots before and they keyed great with Boris...that said, I figured I'd try Hitfilm and at first crack it nailed it...so moral of the story for me, is have 'em both in your toolbox.

Panasonic HC-X1000 4K... anybody?
Thanks! That's kinda what I was thinking too. I would love to upgrade my old Z7 but may need to hang on a bit longer. And sorry for not claiming an OT thread but I did mean to ask if anyone had used footage from this camera in Vegas?

Save As Copy media with project woes...
I have left it the same name as the current project I'm working on ( usually something like "EM FINAL_10a.veg" I have changed it to a different name, added BACKUP to the name even tried "Untitled.veg". I also create a folder named "Backup" and save to that as well. Trick is I have done this before with this project and had success. I made some changes in later versions of the project and thought I would backup again and now I get the error message. There is some file in the project I sure causing a conflict I guess but can't figure which.

HitFilm 3 Pro For Free?
I, for one, was pretty pumped to see that email! And to tell the truth I'm finding HitFilm's plugins more effective especially their chromakey compared to Boris Continuum's chromakey. (which I used to love) Just finished a project where I shot a lot of simple "talking head" shots(nicely lit I might add) recorded with my Ninja Blade... outputting the signal from my old SONY Z7's HDMI port. So I had these 'beefy" 422 ProRes shots in the Vegas timeline and for the life of me I couldn't get BCC 9's chromekey to stop giving me "dancing-pixels" in the talent's hair. Enter Hitfilm and with a few clicks and simple adjustments... perfection..at least as far as I was concerned. Oh well, glad to hear I've got a new Hitfilm coming!

Cannot render to quicktime any longer
I had this problem a month or so back and no one could figure it out either. For some reason it seems to be working now. I'm wondering if it was some Microsoft Windows 7 update issue...don't know.

OT: what's your take on the 3D craze?
Being one who "already" wears glasses, 3D has been a bit of a pain as well though the years. For me, the only 3D film that I'm really glad I saw was "Gravity" to be honest it was IMAX 3D and it might have been just as fun flat...none the less it was a FUN ride.

Quick Time woes...
Good point. But I have gotten to the place where I just open a new project .veg drop one clip on the timeline (short name) and try to render to QT, any flavor of QT, and no joy! As I said guess I'll start looking at system "Restore Points"...

Quick Time woes...
Think I'll start playing with "Restore Points" to see if I can get things back like they were cause it seems nothing is working in this regard. Thanks everyone for trying!

Quick Time woes...
Once again thanks for all the thoughts. Turning off GPU didn't help. Now you mentioned renaming "fileIOSurrogate.dll" I guess that's the last thing to try. But would/should that effect Adobe Premier as well?

Quick Time woes...

Quick Time woes...
Thanks for the response. Name was three letters, pretty short in my book. Also I've tried everything under QT's video format..Sorenson, H.263, MPEG-4 Video...etc. etc. Just plain weird...but that's just me I guess!

BlueRay to DVD?
Thanks Kimberly! Great info! Looks like I have DVDA 5.2 build 133. So I guess it might not work? I did find a DVDA 5.0a but I guess that's too early? May have to bite the proverbial at some point!
