Portable Sony DVD Architect Pro 5.0b Build 180 (Size: 240,0 MB) These files play on my PS3 fine, both the m2ts & the mp4.Portable Sony DVD Architect Pro 5.0b Build 180 I find that the standard def 720x480 encoded at 2MBS (2,000,000) looks just fine. Using the MP4 container is better to send to someone. But definitely encode a HDV video 1440x1080 at 4MBS and low bit-rates to see how nice a job it does, the video is still nice. I suggest starting with average bit-rates approx 10MBS - 14MBS. On the Video tab make sure it says AVC and then tailor your settings to there correct values (frame_size, fielding, PAR etc). Then in the audio tab you can use AAC audio at your preferred bit-rate. My preference for file playback is in the System tab select the MP4 container because this is a file, computers will recognize this extension. That would be for the avchd disk format, not very compatible for distribution or file playback. This m2ts file is the same file as recorded in the Sony AVCHD cams that write to the mini-dvd's. Make sure to save this template to re-use. Unless you have a supercam I've never had a need to go over 14MBS (yet).Ĭheck on the "Video" tab for the correct fielding settings (should be correct via the template). When you click on the "Video Tab" you can Change the template bit-rates by manually typing in the bit-rate. Now when you goto the "Audio Tab" you can enable the audio & adjust for Dolby 2/0. In the Custom Tab go to the System and change the "Format" to "MPEG-2 transport stream (.m2ts) How I rendered a avchd video file m2ts extension (AVCHD-Blu-Ray Format) with Dolby Audio 2/0 In new Vegas Pro 8 it seems like you can, though you need to fiddle with the settings - the text below is someone elses experience, You could also save it in HDV format or other formats I'm not sure of which formats the PS3 plays. Bring your files into DVDA and author your DVD.įor your second question: I believe Senu is correct Vegas can edit AVCHD but you can't save to that format (same goes for the other editors like Ulead 11)l at least not in Version 7. Set the video format in the file properties to PAL widescreen (720x576).Ĥ. It shouldn't matter but make sure the "stretch video to fill output frame" box is not checked.ģ. Edit, render out using MPEG2 "DVD Architect PAL Widescreen video stream" template for the video render the audio as. In Vegas, your project settings should be set to HDV 1080-50i (1440x1080, 25.000 fps), (there is no special setting for AVCHD at this stage).Ģ.

The way I create DVDs from HDV (which is also 1440x1080, so the flow is the same) is:ġ. It is most likely an issue with the settings/template used though I suppose it could also be an issue with the DVD player. For your first question: You should be able to make a standard def widescreen without it being squashed.
