Padawan LearnerOK, I'm just learning how to edit HD video, so naturally I tried to create an "extended version" of Star Wars.
I ripped both the movie BluRay and the bonus BluRay, and taken the correct m2ts files. So after a few "tweaks" all my sources were m2ts files with 23.976fps video encoded as AVC, and one 5.1 ac3 track (the movie had of course DTS but I converted it to ac3 before putting it to Vegas).
I have done carefully all edits which I wanted and now I want to render the final movie. Since all my input files had 23,976fps and 5.1 ac3 audio, I of course want to render the video as a 23.976fps (I don't care about the codec/container right now) and 5.1 ac3 audio. How should I do this ?
I am using Sony Vegas Movie Studio HD Platinum 10.0.
My first attempt was an "m2t" - I thought it's the same as m2ts but definitely isn't :-) The file was encoded with the MPG codec (I don't really care), the framerate was correct (23.976 progressive), BUT - the audio was only MP2 stereo :-(
After changing the settings I was able to create a m2ts file, which had the video encoded in AVC, and the audio was correctly encoded as a 5.1 AC3, BUT the video is encoded as 29.97fps and I honestly can't watch it, the movement is completely unnatural (I guess because of the creation of unnecessary frames)
Any help ? I really want for the start just a video with 23.976 fps and 5.1 AC3 audio. Or what am I doing wrong ?

"Untallented and clueless to the core"Can't you customise the template in the render settings to change the framerate from 29.97 to 23.976fps? I know you can do this with the pro version but i'm not sure about Movie Studio. There should be an option to do this when you select your template

Padawan LearnerNo I can't :-( I can only choose 29.97 or 25

Jedi MasterSo, under one video template you get 23.976 and 2.0, and under a different template you get 29. and 5.1 audio? I've never used the studio version, but I know it's more limited than the regular version. This might be one of those limitations. I would try going on the Sony forums and see if someone there can help.

"Untallented and clueless to the core"You could always render the video @23.976 and then render the audio as a 5.1 AC3 separately and then use TSMuxer to combine them into a MT2S file

That's exactly how I did it, I was just hoping I could do it directly :-) But thanks for the tip, it seems I have bought a crappy version of Vegas
