Technical information on xvColor
As we all are aware, any color can be represented as a sequence (tuple) of three (or four) components. Those components (called primary colors) depend on the particular color model used: they are red (R), green (G), and blue (B) in the RGB color model, or cyan (C), magenta (M), yellow (Y), and black...

Re: xvColor and AX2000
Hi halfpipe, There’s nothing special about xvColor, actually it’s the new extended-gamut color space for video applications (technical name is xvYCC). Probably you are already aware of such examples of object surface colors beyond sRGB-gamut as a tropic ocean, a scarlet-red car, petals of the rose, ...

xvColor and AX2000
I have been thinking, what the heck, let us go beyond 4:2:0 sampling format right into xvYCC extended color space and see what we will get. I have made some tests and here are their results. I shot the Munsell Color Cascade (a calibration chart) Fragment.jpg and recorded a scene with a blooming bush...

Re: Sony Vegas - A few questions
Please look at the screenshots I’ve made to simplify your task: Quality VBR audio setting is chosen to ensure high sound quality; the sample rate of 44.100 kHz is the best for network media. Also, for video encoding Quality VBR setting is the simplest yet acceptable choice (other options as Bit rate...

Re: Changing the settings of AX2000 recordings: GAMMA
Thus what I’ve recently done, it’s not an “ultimate test” – I could not capture someone’s face at close range, but nevertheless my recent clip http://vimeo.com/13362951 shows up the AX2000 dynamic range on human (young and pretty) faces. It also demonstrates the color reproduction of the cam: please...

Re: Sony Vegas - A few questions
Roughly speaking, bitrate represents the amount of information, which is stored per unit of time of a recording: thus the higher bitrate, the higher the detail level of a recording. For example, standard-definition television quality (with MPEG-2 compression applied) is about 3.5 Mbit/s; while DVD q...

Re: How to Email AVCHD? HDR-CX7
Or use Windows Live Movie Maker (it’s a part of Windows Live suite free to download for everyone).
With Movie Maker, you can make a movie in a few moments using AutoMovie. In addition, you can publish your movie on YouTube or send it via email.

Re: Sony Vegas - A few questions
“Will the fact that the original clip is interlaced and the output file is progressive have an effect on quality?” The answer is yes and no. Theoretically speaking, the template, which specifies the parameters used for rendering your project, should match your project settings such as frame size, pi...

Re: Sony Vegas - A few questions
Hi Simbo, It is my understanding that all your questions are about the settings of Windows Media Video 11 format (WMV) rendering. When rendering you project in this format, “Override default compression buffer” setting means that you can choose the compression rate other than the default value. Howe...

Re: Changing the settings of AX2000 recordings: GAMMA
They say a picture is worth a thousand words… In our case, even a short artless clip costs a lengthened exquisitely worded post.
So, please take a look at the clip I made with CINEMATONE1 GAMMA enabled:
