Vegas Pro 12 to Resolve 11 Pro question

GeeBax, Thanks for the reply. That is what I've done in the past, as well, and looks like what I will be doing again. When you say intermediate, do you mean as a proxy vegas file or is there a better step?

OT: Youtube announces 4K video streaming plans

For what it's worth... I can bring 2.5k ProRes and DNxHD from my BMCC directly into Vegas and edit, but I can only output (render) to 1080 from Vegas. With the handy dandy Davinci Resolve that came with my BMCC, I can output to 4k, 3k, 2k or 1080. I suspect not every NLE allows for that and some may be rendering out to values less than 4k and uploading to YT where it sees a value greater than 1080 and some are confusing that with true 4k. It would be interesting to know if VP14 will allow output up to 4k.

Thanks, Jason. I have read a number of BMCC users saying similar things about the compressed images being very good. If you don't mind me asking, what sort of rig are you using and what battery solution, if any, do you use?

Thank you, John.

File I/O surrogate

I reloaded VP12 last night and using the settings described above I was able to render a 17,000 frame 10 minute 1080 short to DNxHD. That is fantastic! Thank you again for all of the help. I just need to find out where to find my Newblue Pro titler from VP11. It didn't re-install.

I just tried ritsmer's process, removed both 12 and 11, reinstalled 11 and changed the render settings to GPU - off and max threads 5 and preview 22 and DAMN if it didn't work. It was slower, of course, but I was able to render this project out to DNxHD. I even tried it twice to make sure it wasn't a fluke and it worked. I am afraid to reload 12. Is it still stable for you ritsmer?

File I/O surrogate

Please don't mistake my rant as a stab at you or anyone else on these forums. I am a Sony Acid Pro user as well and feel completely abandoned by SCS, as do thousands of other Acid users, so when I rant on SCS, there is a back story. I appreciate all of the support I get here. I did try 7.6.2. I also removed VP12 and reinstalled 11 and was able to render out to a DNxHD. Then I created a new user account and reinstalled 12 and it did not work and now the 11 doesn't render DNxHD. I removed all traces of 12, but it didn't help. I did render out a 30 sec spot to avi and rendered a mp4 on handbrake and uploaded it to my clients FTP. I am yet to hear how it looks.

Why can't a SCS engineer help with this? Is it my external drive speed? Is it a driver update? Clearly, I am not the only one having these problems and it is unacceptable that they won't help. Is is a program? A microsoft update? Is there a trick to correct it? How can Vegas be a "professional" software when so many of us long time users are suffering this problem? I have a client that wants only HD mov files and the DNxHD was a perfect fit. I cant' render anything QT and I love Vegas...it's really frustrating.

More DNxHD questions

I thought I read someone saying avi doesn't work with the new Handbrake build. I guess I should check it out.. Thanks, everyone, for all of your help. It means a lot.

More DNxHD questions

Bob, I use it as a intermediary for Handbrake and then YouTube and Vimeo. I have been using it for about 2 years now and I am very comfortable with the work flow. I am sure there are as good, if not better, ways to go. What is really bothering me is that it's not working and that means something is wrong with my set up and that drive me nuts. I have been having different issues with VP12 since early March. Before that, it worked great as did 11 and 10.

More DNxHD questions

Because I was unable to solve this problem of my QT render options missing, I wiped my hard drive over the weekend. I have only re-loaded VP12 and I have the latest version of QT, 7.74. I tried using the version prior and it made no difference. I totally agree that it must be something to do with where I have it installed, Program files, or what version...?

More DNxHD questions

WoooHooo! LOL Finally...that was it, Jerry, removing the "s". Now, if someone can tell me why I can't render out a DNxHD, my day will be greatly better.

More DNxHD questions

Thank you Jerry, but it just will not work for me. I can't get vegas to work and I can't get a simple screen shot to post. I tried dropbox, tinypic, photobucket. I saved the image as gifs, jpg...you name it. I am sure at this point Adobe has taken control of the PC and they are forcing me to switch to Premier because I have not been this mad at anything since my divorce...

Another DNxHD question

Thanks Tons, musicvid10! I knew I was missing something.

HDCAM SR presets fail to render. Any insights?

I am having trouble rendering anything to anything at this point with Sony Vegas Pro 12. As much as I have loved this software over the past 3 years, I am finding it to be slightly better than worthless today. I am sure It must be my fault, though it worked great in the previous build, I would never know because my trouble tickets go unanswered. I am starting to think they have Acid Pro engineers working on Vegas now...which of course is a joke since there are no SCS engineers working on Acid since 2007. Sorry you are having trouble too...

Handbrake question

I have been using Handbrake and Avid DNxHD together for a few years based on a great YouTube tutorial I got from this forum. I only used that combo for work that was going on Vimeo or YouTube and it worked great. I don't use that process for DVD or BluRay projects and since I can't seem to correct my QT issue, I need another intermediary codec to continue using the Handbrake process. Is there a MXF lossless preset?

Editing RAW

Thanks Jason. Is there a NLE that is working well with DNG files or the large DNxHD or ProRes?

problem with animating track effects

Can you be a bit more specific? What fx are you seeing this with? I keyframe fx often and have had no problems with VP12.

Lost QT render templates

I have done another clean install of VP12 and I still don't have Quicktime render templates. I just opened VP11 and I have them there. Does ANYONE have any possible idea? I am really baffled...
