What causes frames to be dropped when importing video into your computer? I recently installed Vegas 5 and tried to inport some footage today, as it was loading in frames were dropping by the hundreds, any answers, please help!

I just recently installed Vegas 5 and this is the first time I have had time to start importing video. Just in the first few minutes of footage I had dropped several hundred frames, is this something to do with my computer not working right? Or what it is driving me crazy trying to figure it...

I just purchased an Azden SGM -2X and I know its not the best mic in the world nut for a tight budget I was looking for something with multi uses.

This topic has been moved to Cafe ala DVX by John Hudson.

Being one of the newer members here I spend a lot of time searching through older threads to see what I might have missed from the past and I try to look at every example that I can find to see just what the DVX100 is capable of. I ran across a thread regarding the work of Matt Mcdermitt and...

Got a couple of questions, after playing for a few days with my camera I am wondering about a few issues. My sole purpose as probably most of you was to get a somewhat affordable digital video camera that will give me a native "Film Look" and this is the camera to do it! Forget post work right...

When I use a new tape say the one that came with the camera should I record color bars at the begining and why? Aslo I have...

This is the greatest place in the world! I am a very new user of this board and as of today a DVX100A. I posted a few questions before buying and you guys pointed me straight in the right direction.
