Re: Capturing Mini DV Using Vegas 6?

When in Capture menu. Go to options and disable Scene Detection. This will allow for one continuous capture. Vegas is gonna capture one 12GB .avi as noted above pre hour roughly. When you render you will create another 3.5 GB file plus 1 GB for PCM audio Then you will need another 5 GB per DVD5 or 9 GB per DVD9 for the authored DVD. SO you will need roughly 12GB(capture), 1GB(new audio), 4.5Gb(rendered files), 5GB(authored DVD). Which is about 20GB per DVD.

AS far as capturing.... Just plugin your cam (it will need to be in VCR mode)and Vegas will popup the capture menu. Then select capture all from beginning of tape.

Good luck... You're gonna use DVD ARchitect to author the DVD. Capturing is half the fun.
