In asking a few of the videographer's I've worked with, none of them have mentioned working with FCP. They are either working with Vegas or Premier. FCP is considerably cheaper at $299 (although I see I may need motion and compressor if any of my clients ask for DVD movies with pictures). Sony Vegas Pro is $599.95. And Premiere Pro is $799. Vegas and Premiere have to have something that FCP doesn't for that difference in price right? I'm just wondering for me as a wedding photographer, who is only using this to do the occasional video editing, does it make sense to spend the extra $300-400 bucks. I don't want to buy FCP and then realize, d'oh actually in a month or two of using FCP I realize I want/need Vegas or Premiere. So for those who have used them all, what do you think of them and the differences between them? Also what's the learning curve like? I'll be coming from iMovie, which I have pushed to its editing limits, and I know CS4 Photoshop well. Any suggestions are much appreciated!</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/vegas-pro-11-to-vegas-pro-10-render-speed-comparisons#post-71703 Mon, 17 Oct 2011 23:34:34 +0000 doublehamm 71703@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Leapin' Lizards!

Now, some years later, I'm getting the feeling that any further effort invested in Liquid would essentially be a waste of time; and perhaps I should be scoping out a more current, widely used NLE platform.

Only 5-10 formats were accepted and the file had to be under 100mb long and under 10 minutes long. Since then Youtube has slowly upgraded and expanded on the possibility of formats and sizes it accepts. Throughout time certain formats were considered the best way to upload, for a long time it was .mp4 and .flv since Youtube would have to transcode the video the least amount to make it playable on the players.</p> <p>Now that Youtube accepts resolutions up to 4K and file sizes of 2gb (it may even be more now, I'm not sure), pretty much everything will work. So here comes the question, <strong>what format can Sony Vegas 9 produce that will transcode smoothly to Youtube</strong> and provide the best viewing quality there (Not locally on the computer).</p> <p>I have always been a simple wmv fan, since it provides decent file sizes while maintaining a pretty decent picture. Lately though, with HD footage becoming more and more prevalent; I have noticed that Youtube and WMV haven't been playing together too well. WMV can still produce great HD footage, but when Youtube transfers it on it's own servers, the quailty is a disaster.</p> <p>Youtube used to state in it's help area that MP4 was the best format. So I tried the simple .mp4 (Mainconcept AVC, AAC) that is provided with Vegas 9 and which is pretty bare with customization. I made it 1280x720 (and I realize now I never changed the bitrate) and the result was watchable but the quality was noticeably bad. So I switched over to the XDCAM XE .MP4 option that is also provided which provided a much better looking video on my computer. ON Youtube though, it seemed to transcode into almost identical video as the first HD WMV I uploaded. </p> <p>FLV sadly is not supported by Vegas that I am aware of.</p> <p>SO what do you personally think is the best format to upload to Youtube is? What codec allows for the least amount of transcoding produces the best looking video?</p> <p>Please keep in mind I want to be able to do this natively on Vegas unless downloading some other program is really worth it. Also, I'm a youtube junkie so I don't want to switch to another service.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/multiple-video-timelines#post-64123 Sat, 11 Dec 2010 17:10:24 +0000 ophelia 64123@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p> I know my newb status will be glaringly obvious with this question, but: why are multiple video timelines needed?  I've found I can do nicely with just one.  BTW, I tried to add this topic in the "post-production" forum, but it wouldn't open up.</p> <p>Thanks!</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/recommended-hardware-for-running-vegas-platinum#post-34906 Sat, 02 Feb 2008 10:11:56 +0000 DaveArthur 34906@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>I run a Final Cut-based studio.

Any other ideas?</p> <p>Thanks in advance </p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/new-to-video-making#post-36730 Fri, 23 May 2008 14:27:48 +0000 mrjman 36730@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>I'm new to making videos. I took a class a know some very basic stuff about shooting and editing. I worked with the programs Final Cut Pro and Soundtrack Pro. I'd like to buy my own set of videomaking equipment. All I know is that you need a Deck, a Camera, and a Computer with the right programs. If anyone has any suggestions on what kind of Camera/Deck/Computer thats good for beginners to start making movies please let me know.</p>
