Sony Vegas and Media Studio Yep, I know they're not related, but they both fall in the Premiere Alternative bracket in my humble opinion! Post here for Ulead Media Studio or Vegas video problems or pointers...

Ok so I recently bought a Sony HDR-FX1 and it looks amazing on the camera and on TV and even when I transfer it to my computer. The problem is when I begin to edit it in Vegas and then I render it out as 512 it becomes really blurry, any clus as to why?

An example of what im talking about can be found here http://www.459productions.com/videos/newpromo.wmv

Thanks,
Kyle

Well, at the rendered size, (320 x 240) I think it looks great. Are you sure you're not viewing at 200%? At that size, it does start to blur a bit, but I guess it would.

(Really well shot, by the way)

Have to agree with Turn Media. It's actually good quality considering the low bitrate. Additionally, you've encoded with a 4:3 aspect ratio whilst the video itself was shot in widescreen? You can output WMV with a widescreen pixel aspect ration and this *may* help maintain quality.

Also a rather good video you've made there

Thanks guys! So how would I change the pixel aspect ratio to a widescreen one? Does the quality look good on your end? Kyle

Looked fine to me for the bit rate, if you want it look better try a higher bit rate. 1 mbit variable at dv res looks much better.
It played wide screen for me.
