Raylight 2.02 Released -- Includes Plugin for Vegas!

Marcus, you gotta be kidding -- you've already sussed that out and made it do on-the-fly pulldown removal for DV50 too? You are a first-class operation. Kudos, thanks, and many high-fives from those of us who love Vegas and use the HVX!!!!!!
 
The plugin for Premiere is very close to being ready for those who wish to dare try it!

As always, update your copy of Raylight at dvfilm.com/update or click on "Updates" at the bottom of our Products page.
 
Saw that there is now Pulldown support.

So I guess the best rule of thumb is to always shoot 1080i/24pA if im shooting 1080 resolution? Because it cant pulldown a regular 24p (3:2) file, right?

Sounds like this plugin is an "MXF export from timeline" feature away from being absolutely perfect for Vegas users.
 
Yes, always do 1080/24pA. FCP does pulldown removal, Raylight does pulldown removal, etc. If you're going to be editing on a 24p timeline, always choose 24pA.
 
Alright, I'm trying to figure this thing out...

Does Raylight include the Raymaker? THere's too many "rays" to figure out what is which. I need the raymaker to convert my mxf files to avi's. Please let me know, I'm in Moscow working on a project and my version expired and I need to make the right purchase.

Thanks,

JEremy

Not that confusing to me, and Raylight does not 'expire', so I dont know what you mean there. . .

Its always better to have MORE stuff than less, as with other apps. .

Release notes of current Raylight here.. .

Raylight Version 2.02
Package includes the Raylight codec for Windows, RayMaker-- an application
that converts MXF files into AVI files, P2 Maker-- an application that
converts Raylight AVI into MXF files, and a control panel for the Raylight
codec.

Also includes DVFilm Maker (in the InstallData folder) which is only needed to
convert other non-HVX200 formats like HDV to Raylight.

Also a new feature for 2.02: a plugin for Sony Vegas to permit MXF files
in the timeline.




 
Raylight does not expire? Then why is it that when I launch "Raymaker" it says, "Software license expired, please upload at DVfilm.com/updateNormal termination."? Please let me know if I'm just missing something here before I make the purchase. Thanks for your time.
 
I'm having a bit of a mental hiccup after shooting 1080 for the first time (used to shooting 720pn to get as much footage out of a card as possible). We shot some stuff at 1080 24p (not pa), and once the mxfs were in Vegas, they appear with an unchangeable frame rate of 29.97. Should I run them through RayMaker or DVFilm Maker before editing?

The tests I ran through Raymaker and keyed in AE had interlacing every 5th frame (footage reads as 23.976, and that's what the composition's rate is at), so I assume I'm running something at the wrong frame rate. Switching the composition rate to 29.97 doesn't seem to make it any better.
