So I recently got a new pc and want to mess around after effects and sony vegas and get some clips out.
But I'm stuck on the boring part...
So I want it the maximum quality possible and at 1080p so I rendered it with vdub at 480fps's and 1920x1080, but I got a 60Gb .avi file for like a 15 second clip, I can't afford having 10-15 of these 50gb+ files in order to make a single minute movie. Is there any way to export from vdub directly at a smaller size? or encoding it before importing it to vegas?
I tried easy h.264 to compress the file before importing and it was great I got a 15mb file instead of 15Gbs, but I lost a lot of quality in the process, is there any way to avoid this? Any other compressing program or codec I should know about?
I wouldn't ming being stuck with 1-2gbs video files for editing, thats cool, 50gb on the other hand is way too much for a single file.
