FEATURES:Multitrack Video Editing on Unlimited TracksThere is no limit to the number of video and audio tracks you can use in a Vegas project nothing to impede your creativity or stop you from reaching your fullest potential.
Powerful Color Correction and Matching ToolsUse 3-Wheel Primary and comprehensive Secondary Color Correction filters to adjust differences in video from different camera setups or lighting situations; enhance dull, washed out footage; or make specific color ranges stand out. All edits can instantly be analyzed on four scopes: Vectorscope, Waveform, Parade and Histogram. Changes are immediately viewable on an external monitor via i.LINK connector*/IEEE-1394 devices.
Vectorscope, Waveform, Histogram, and Parade Video ScopesAccurately measure the color, black and whites of video, and locate illegal chroma and luma levels so you can fix them prior to output. View levels in real-time as they play back in the preview window or on an external monitor.
Professional Video EffectsChoose from over 190 customizable video effects including: Lens Flares, Light Rays, Film Effects, Chroma Key, Timecode Overlays, Color Gradients, Media Generators, Credit Rolls, Text Effects and more. Quickly recall frequently used effects chains with new configurable packages.
Customizable Video TransitionsUse over 175 2D and 3D real-time transitions, including Barndoor, Clock Wipe, Dissolves, Iris, Linear Wipes, Page Peels, Venetian Blinds, Zooms, 3D Fly In/Out, 3D Shuffle and more. All transitions are customizable and can be keyframed to change over the length of each fade or overlap.
Transition Progress Envelopes Transition progress envelopes in Vegas 5 software provide full keyframeable control over all transition attributes across the length of an event overlap. Create customizable fades or reverse, hold and repeat individual transitions. Precise customization of transitions in Vegas 5 software provides new levels of creative flexibility.
3D Track Motion Create 3D motion effects with precise control over Z-depth, plane intersection, compositing and more. The Vegas 5 track grouping model allows multiple tracks to move and rotate in 3D space. 3D motion occurs in real-time and is instantly previewable via i.LINK connector/IEEE-1394 hardware to external monitor.
Enhanced Video Compositing The Vegas 5 compositing model offers greater flexibility with multi-level composite group nesting, separate peer and parent motion settings, pre and post composite track effects and improved composite hierarchy management.
Keyframable Bzier Masks Produce keyframeable Bzier masks for complicated objects. Bzier curves let you closely track object outlines to mask and keyframe shape and motion changes over time. Create depth-of-field effects, apply color correction to specific areas of a clip, crop surrounding source material and create mask overlays. Multiple animated free-form shapes can be created in a single window, with mask invert control for each object. Feather and blend hard edges, set opacity levels for each layer, and zoom the workspace to the sub-pixel level for extremely accurate Bzier mask creation.
Credit Rolls and Text AnimationWith Vegas 5 software you can insert customizable text, create scrolling credits (titling), and produce 2D and 3D text animations.
Subtitle Time/Text Export to DVD Architect Software Vegas 5 software makes subtitle creation for DVD Architect software easy. Create named regions in Vegas software, export the list as a text file using the provided script, then import the file into DVD Architect software to auto-generate frame-accurate subtitles. Translated files can also be used as alternate language subtitles in a DVD Architect project.
Resolution IndependentVegas software supports any Aspect Ratio (4:3, 16:9, etc.). Edit on 23.976, native 24, 25, 29.97 or 30 fps timelines. Use video in different sizes and frame-rates all on the same project or on the same track - no conversion is necessary. Render Vegas projects out to just about any resolution.
Support for Multiple File Formats and Frame RatesUse multiple file formats and frame rates in the same project or on the same track, and crossfade them on the same track roll all without conversion or rendering.
Improved MPEG-2 Support Vegas 5 software features improved, high-quality MPEG-2 encoding for DVD, broadcast and other delivery targets. Enhancements from the previous version include 2-pass variable bit rate encoding, 4:2:2 High profile/Main level, and Transport stream support.
Flash' .SWF Format Import Import Flash/.swf files** directly into Vegas 5. The vector-based .SWF files can be scaled to any project size without loss of resolution. Create complex text animations and other effects for projects using any editing tool that supports .swf export.
24p DV SupportWith native support for 24p, Vegas 5 software allows you to capture, edit, and render 24p DV. Export 24p MPEG-2 for use in DVD Architect, or create 24p files for conversion to film.
