  1. this video has a great central concept http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hP8nnCqK4gE&list=FL7y5mjFnrdO1SjXyPOsdPBg&index=2&feature=plpp_video
  2. I use PMB for all my file management because it simplifies and takes care of file management for me. Since PMB's last few up dates it has become a useful tool. I insert a card and w PMB window comes up and I click on import only files that have not been previously downloaded. When PMB imports files it creates folders with date and daily download number, which i can change if I know the students name at the time. I also rename the files with a date stamp down to one hundredth of a second. Finally it opens a folder with all files just imported which I select and drag into a Vegas template and begin editing More times than not i get students that jumped three 2 hours ago and want to see their video before they buy it. with PMB i ca look back at files in order by date from multiple cams and search for files in just about any way i can think of if i am missing a file. I just downloaded media manager about 4 days ago. It is going to be a useful for picking songs for the jumpers that are pickier about the music. I can show them what they can choose from in in short manner and double click to enter it in to the time line. I could aslo use it to quickly insert cheesy sound FX. PMB has a flaw that may make it useless to me. If we end up using Gopro’s for some video next season PMB will recognize Gopro files and import them, but when I go to view them they no longer exist on my computer. It will not play mp4 files either. But it seems fair for a Sony product not work with with a competitors files of file format. The media manager will be very useful but it’s not what PMB is currently. I am sure media manager will improve with time and I will find better ways of using it for editing. Do you know if media manager updates itself or does that have to be done manually?
  3. what i was looking fo was for Vegas to take care of folder management for me. it does not do that i know now. what i was looking for was for Vegas to keep all files to in one area for a project. so if i render, send to DVD architect, create disc images or save copy of original media. all the files would be in a master folder under project name. preferably with folders for renders DVD arch and Disc images. This is actually easy to do and only takes a few seconds to do. In the project manager i will organize folders for myself if its a project has allot of files to keep things organized. but for tandems and first jump students I don't because the lack of files in the project.
  4. okay so i opened vegas Pro immediately went to file> import. i didn't sen any options for file management. I imptorted some files and render some audio files but VP11 still wanted to allocate file in last place files were saved. Am I missing something? its not that i don't know where to put my project files, but it would save a little bit of time if Vegas did it for me. DSE Thank you for time
  5. I am not shure what "import dialog" is ?
  6. in Vegas Movie Studio when i Open a new progect i had the option of managing files but in Vegas pro 11 i dont seem to have this option and no dialog box comes up at all for new projects. its this not an option in Vegas Pro 11 or is their a box that i have inadvertently unchecked? Pic attached
  7. finally bought Vegas Pro. DSE your right once again the velo envelope is not anything like i would have hoped it would be. in terms of ease of use. Back to ctrl and drag.
  8. gopro 2 pictiure review http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RzektEfL-nw&feature=feedu
  9. "A little better" may have been an understatement. the velocity envelope i can see being very usefull in tandem video and would be a time saver for time warping in tandem videos. having the ability to see a moment in the the video and slow it down and bring it back to normal speed and change it to dial it in with something as simple as a line is very useful. The $300 just pushes me away from the table
  10. ive seen some slow-motion where the speed follows a line similar to envolpe controls for volume and pan as apposed to taking a clip and slowing it down to 40% which results in jerky transitions. This can be hidden by buy putting the change from slow-mo to regular speed on a beat in the music track. Are there other programs that provide slow-mo function to a timeline ? $300ish for twixtor seem to be a bit much to smooth out and do slow-mo a little bit better than vegas can

  13. It was a a while a go. I dont have a link but since them l&b has cone out with products that dont have any snag points on them. its nothing to worry about if your not using that equipment.
  14. need to look into a wrist mount because i dont like the hand mount it came with very much *** if you go with the wrist mount look into getting the wrist band type. i have seen video a jumper managed to get his lines caught in the wrist mount. He still managed to land and flare with one arm pined to the top of his risers and the other holding both toggles for steering and flare
  15. i use keep vid. It works great to take downloaded file put in to vegas and see slowmotion in slowmotion of frame by frame.
  16. just curious what are you paying for Usb drives and how much do you have to buy to get that price?
  17. i was rendering some videos on the bosses laptop and a window came up saying that vegas was using too much memory and it shut down the render and would not complete the render but i can render the same video on my laptop that has less memory and processor speed with out any problems any ideas on what might be causing this ?
  18. try this link http://www.youtube.com/user/warlock1969#p/u/23/d5Q9DSLavmM The sled footage starts at 4:00 If you like old skydiving videos you may want to get some pop corn ready and veiw this persons channel

  21. what are you paying for pre printed DVD's ? The few places i checked out were charging about 80cents per dvd for silk screening with 1 color and $1.23 for full color printing with a production run of 250 DVDs. I can Get light scribe DVD's for 40 cents but the long burn times are a huge down side. I'm hugely behind the times just trying to catch up and curious if wrondering what has Changed over the 4 years
  22. lightscribe seems to have some positives going for it such as no printer ink required and the labelers are about 30 to 40 dollars more than a burner with out light scribe ability. So a dvd burner with Lightscribe would cost about the price of printer ink. The DVDs are priced reasonably at around 50 cents. The only down side is it does take a long time to scribe If i had a DVD Lable with just some simple line work it would probably look great and possibly not take to long to scribe. So the labled DVDs would have to be done ahead of time. I am just wondering what kind of images can be scribed and how long it takes to scribe them?
  23. how does this look for an editing computer 2 monitors 2 dvd burners windows 7 case roomy with air filters with fast card reader fire wire or usb2 cpu AMD Phenom II hex-core CPU video card nothing special gaming quality ram 12MB with option to go to 16 Hard drives 1 ssd for for the operating system $100-150 1 for archiving 2 TB power supply spend $100 Adrenalize - Adrenaline-Based Audio Sony Vegas movie studio HD 10 platinum
  24. what is needed for the video card? does it have to anything special?
