更新時間:2009-08-28
更新細節:

What's new in this version:

- Enhanced audio event timestretch and pitch shifting with zplane élastique Pro.
- Added XDCAM EX (MP4) rendering.
- Added quality setting for MXF compression during capture (lower quality level enables compress during capture on lower-end hardware).
- Added a Prioritize quality over speed check box to the MainConcept MPEG-2 and Sony MXF Custom Settings dialog.
- MPEG-2 smart rendering now works across different container formats. You can smart render between identical operating points of XDCAM (MXF), XDCAM EX (MP4), and HDV (M2T).
- Added support for RED devices and media to the Device Explorer.
- Incorporated an updated RED SDK. In the new SDK, default decoding properties have changed, and color science has been improved. You may notice variations in decoded images due to these changes.

- Added support for BlackMagic Design DeckLink HD Extreme (4:2:2 only).
- Improved precision for the Record Engage Delay setting when printing to tape from an SDI device to allow fine tuning of auto-edit frame accuracy.
- Added General Preference for Import stereo as dual mono which allows for working with two-channel audio as dual mono.
- When using this setting, the default panning mode, Add Channels, will increase the level of mono events by 6 dB, which can cause unexpected results in your mix. We recommend using the Film or Balance (0 dB Center) panning mode when using the Import stereo as dual mono setting.

- Fixed an issue with removing 2-3 pulldown from AVI/DV 24p sources.
- Fixed an issue that could cause the Windows Secondary Monitor to display incorrectly after performing a prerender.
- Fixed an issue with prerender or print to tape to certain progressive formats when media generators are used without effects or compositing.

- Fixed image preview during HDV capture (64-bit version).
- Fixed an issue where 64-bit VST plug-ins would not appear (64-bit version).
- Fixed an issue that could cause the Vegas90.exe process to remain in Task Manager after closing Vegas (Windows XP only).
- Fixed Project Media window Timecode In/Timecode Out fields to not use project ruler offset.
- Fixed an issue that could cause events created using Render to New Track to be misaligned if Quantize to Frames was enabled.

What's new in this version:

- Added support for reading 1920x1080 AVCHD video. 1920x1080 AVCHD files created by Panasonic camcorders are not currently supported.
- Improved audio gain in AAF import and export: if the AAF clip volume is constant and is less than 0.0dB, the clip volume is imported as event volume. If the AAF clip volume is greater than 0.0 dB, the track volume is increased to allow the clip volume to be imported as event volume.
- Added support for 50p and 60p MXF formats created by XDCAM EX Voyager software.
- Added support for reading WAV files between 2 GB and 4 GB in size and added a setting to allow WAV renders up to 4 GB before switching to WAV64. Select the Allow Wave renders up to 4 GB check box on the General page of the Preferences dialog to enable support. Clear the check box for compatibility with other software applications.
- Added the ability to render 5.1 surround to WAV and WAV64 file formats (including new rendering templates). Rendered surround files contain channel-mapping information so that Vegas will preserve surround panning information when adding these files to 5.1 surround projects.
- Legacy Sony applications (and third-party applications) may not be able to read these 5.1-channel files. In this case, use multichannel mapping to render a 6-channel file instead.
- Added the ability to use uncompressed PCM audio on Blu-ray Disc.
- When using PCM audio on Blu-ray Disc, some Video template and Audio template combinations can produce media that may not play back correctly on all Blu-ray Disc players.
- If you notice abnormal audio playback, try using a lower sample or bit rate for your audio. When burning a surround project to DVD media with PCM audio, use 48 kHz, 16- or 24-bit audio only.
- Reduced disk-space requirements for Blu-ray Disc burning.
- Removed the �out of synchronization� indication for certain cases where it was not useful.
- Improved QuickTime reader for clips with imperfect frame rate information.
- Improved print-to-tape playout performance with Aja Xena.

ProType Titler changes:
- Improved ProType titler support for East Asian vertical text.
- In ProType titler, added support for Ctrl Left/Right Arrow to move by word and Ctrl A to select all text.
- In ProType titler, added ability to move selected text block using arrow keys.
- In ProType titler, changed Save to collection to Save as custom curve in curve shortcut menu.
- Fixed a possible crash in ProType titler when pressing spacebar when a drop-down was open or after a row was deleted.
- Fixed an issue with reading the last frame of an HDV clip.
- Fixed issues with long-GOP no-recompress rendering (HDV and XDCAM HD).
- Fixed an issue with Film mode panning when both automated and non-automated gain are used.
- Fixed an issue with AC-3 audio not being recognized for some MPEG-2 files.
- Fixed an issue with the Bump Map plug-in when used in 32-bit floating-point mode on an image with an alpha channel.

- Fixed a possible crash that could occur when deleting a bus during playback under certain routing conditions.
- Fixed a possible crash under Windows Vista when closing the Network Notify window before it fully opens.
- Fixed an issue with using multiple Targa still image sequences in a composite.
- Fixed an issue during project closing when using certain third-party audio plug-ins.
- Fixed an issue with seeking when using the Waves Z-Noise plug-in.
