Capturing Mini DV Using Vegas 6?
I have a show I recorded on a Mini DV camcorder that I want to capture using Vegas 6 and was wondering if anyone could give me some pointers.
I will be using a firewire DV cord from the camera to the built-in firewire port on my computer. My video is about an hour and twenty minutes. How much free space do I need on my HD for this? I have an 80GB HD, with about 60GB free. Is that enough? I have a book on Vegas 6 that Im reading, but I like to also get feedback from folks here with experience.
I read in the book that Vegas compresses the video to make the size smaller. What settings/preferences should I use to maintain the highest video quality?
Are there any other issues I should be aware of? I have read about people having problems with dropped frames. Hopefully I wont have that problem as I have a pretty powerful computer and will be capturing to the internal HD. I have never done this, but I think I have everything else in place to get started.
Thanks in advance for any help with these issues...
