When small interaxials just don't cut it! - Page 29

But then you are not able to capture 2x1920x1080, if I understand that right - but maybe sbs-half only?

So, Frank, with the stereo combiner, will you soon be investing in the Marshall Auto stereo monitor? It is a real honey of an instrument, complete with scopes for 3D analysis.

How do you like the LG, Frank? Does it have all the 3D modes the Samsung LCD does? I bought one of the 42" LG displays the other day at Best Buy, but I haven't picked it up yet. I like the idea of using passive for my editing computer. Active doesn't bother me for 3D movies, but a friend bought a 55" LG for his media program and I was really impressed with it. It was very bright and easy on the eyes. And it doesn't hurt that the 42" set came with 8 pairs of glasses (plus I have two more from 3D movies I saw at the theater). Still, I'm wondering if it's going to be much of an upgrade over the Samsung active LCD. That's why I haven't brought it home yet.

I didn't know the AVerMedia AVerTV HDDVR supported 3D. Cool! I have a need for such a card. I avoided it in the past because I thought it didn't support 3D.

Frank

how does the AVerTV HD DVR card behave if you capture 3D footage in 2x1920x1080? I have seen from the manual that the playback is in sbs-half or top-bottom-half only. So I do not expect that you can connect a TD10 that is not set to sbs-half - and then I would assume that the card captures 3D HD in sbs-half only?

And I understand that you will use it with the stereo combiner - so for a preview solution in sbs-half? That is a very interesting combination, I think.

A similar solution could be to use the Intensity Pro maybe - and to preview the sbs-half footage here? But also here the capturing will be possible at sbs-half at the best.

Great. I'll pick it up this afternoon.

I'll be installing the LG tonight. You're right about the Samsung's convoluted method to get access to checkerboard and other 3D modes. It's one of the most cryptic procedures I've ever seen on a consumer electronics product. If I like the LG enough, I'm considering replacing my Samsung PN64-D7000 with an LG display. The Samsung replaced a bad PN63-C8000, but it doesn't play nice with my JVC 3D camcorder signal. It was responsible for my sending the camcorder in for repair, where it got stuck for a couple of months. The only thing "wrong" with it was that it didn't show mp4 files from my camera properly on the Samsung. I tried it with one of the new LGs (and a Panasonic) at Best Buy and it worked perfectly. The other nice thing about the LGs I've seen is that if you're lined up correctly on the vertical, there's virtually no ghosting at all. My Samsung LCD ghosts pretty badly.

Wait for version 13 of Vegas Pro and the tool will be included as another slider in the 3D Stereoscopic adjust effect.

I'm sure your version works too. Probably something simple you are not doing correctly.

What I have seen is that the cursor must be on the event in the Vegas timeline, to be able to run the autocorrection. If the cursor is not located on the timeline, nothing happens - no error message.

Mybe that is what you see, Frank?

Ok, but what is what you do see, Frank?

Wolfgang- One annoyance I complain about with the 3D adjust effect is the key frame selection. There should be a way to click on something that turns on all the keyframe timelines. When I want to set up the auto correct as a keyframed set of events, I have to click on each of the clocks for each correction. Maybe you could suggest a button to open up all of them at once.

Also, if you do not open the timeline for a keyframe positioning the cursor mid clip will not add a keyframe automatically at that moment in time but will change the single keyframe at the beginning of the clip. If you first open the timeline by clicking on the clock, this will add a keyframe point mid clip and not change the opening keyframe. If the timelines were always open, we wouldn't need to worry about opening them and the keyframing would be MORE automatic and not change anything for the auto correct feature where only a single keyframe is needed at the beginning.

I can do so - but my experience is that SCS has its own ideas about the features but also the corrections they decide to implement. If you use the plugin in the track, you have not to click on every clock in every event - then it is enough to do that one time. My impression is that SCS has more the understanding that this can be used at the track level, but not at the event level.


I also see not really a sense that it is necessary to enable the keyframes with the clock - to my opinion that could be enabled as default.

That would differ from the way they teach it in class. The hands on session is taught using event level adjustments.

I couldn't burn an iso image in Vegas 11 until I removed Virtual Clone Drive. I never had a problem with the function in Vegas 10. A fresh reinstall, outlined for me by Sony, didn't help. I had to use a different utility to mount iso files. Now, if I try to import several files into a project, Vegas 11 crashes. Importing 1, 2 or 3 files at a time usually works, although I still experience random crashes. Still no response from Sony on this new issue. For small projects, I can limp by now. I won't even attempt a big project in Vegas until I can get this fixed. I"m crippled.

This is so weird. I could not burn a playable 3D iso in Vegas 10 or 11 until I learned here to close Virtual Clone Drive and use the DVDFab clone tool instead. But I can import a lot of files into Veags 11 fine. I had crashes if I used other techniques, but so long as I copy the group of files from Windows Explorer, and then past into the timeline, it goes fine. Try not using the file import system in Vegas, and just copy from an ordinary Explorer window.
