Hi Steve,
I recently upgraded from Sony Vegas MS 12 to MS Platinum 14 in order to use the multicam feature. I have watched (and re-watched!) your excellent video tutorials on MSP14 and think I am good to go! Thank you so much for these tutorials.
I have two questions please.
I used 3 videocams at a wedding; 2 Sonys which give the .MTS format and an older JVC which gives the .TOD format. Should I convert the .TOD files and if so to what, or should I leave everything as is? A few years ago I did mix the .TOD & .MTS files together for a video, which SVMS12 handled just fine but I'm wondering how the multicam feature will handle different file formats?
So far I have laid the 3 video & audio tracks and synced them (unfortunately no separate audio like you had in your tutorial!) and saved the .vf file as a master copy. I filmed from the start of the ceremony to some of the dancing at the reception, so I have approx 5 hours of video to edit and whittle down. I'm wondering how my computer would cope with such a massive timeline. Would you suggest I break the video up into segments and have separate timelines for each event, i.e. The Ceremony, The Reception, The (full) Speeches, Dancing etc?
Many thanks
Christine
