Cineform and Vegas 6
Does anyone know of a good tutorial for using cineform with vegas?
I'm trying to change my project properties for video in vegas to 1080/24 but it's not listed as an option. What settings should I use? I've already successfully installed the trial for cineform connect hd. Am I doing something wrong? Do I have to make vegas somehow "rocognize" that I'm using cineform or are the two totally independent? |

Vegas and CineForm are complete independent, yet work very well together. Vegas doesn't have a 1080p24 preset but it is simple to make one.
* Select File -> New. * Select a Template that is close e.g. "HDV 1080-50i (1440x1080, 25.000 fps)" * Change the Frame Rate to "23.976" (the real 24.) * Change the Field Order to "None" * Rename the template to - "HD 1080-24p (1440x1080, 23.976 fps)" or similar * Click on the disk icon to save. Now you can open any new project as 1080p24.

Two more questions: 1. You said -- Select a Template that is close e.g. "HDV 1080-50i (1440x1080, 25.000 fps)" Since I am using a NTSC camera, would I want to choose 1080-60i (1440x1080, 29.970fps) . . . or woud I want to stick with what you said because it's closer to the 24fps framerate? 2. Is there a similiar method for setting up vegas for 720/24pn material? Thanks again |

However, my other question is not something I can test, I don't think. (Well, I can test it, and both methods seem to work, but what method is preferred -- HDV 1080-50i (1440x1080, 25.000 fps) or 1080-60i (1440x1080, 29.970fps)? See original question below... You said -- Select a Template that is close e.g. "HDV 1080-50i (1440x1080, 25.000 fps)" Since I am using a NTSC camera, would I want to choose 1080-60i (1440x1080, 29.970fps) . . . or woud I want to stick with what you said because 25fps is closer to the 24fps framerate? Thanks |

As you have created a new template, is has no baring to what you started with. I just made it simple, fewer parameters to change -- but you could have done the same with 4x3 NTSC DV template.
