One of the great things about Sony Vegas is the ability to retain a 5.1 soundtrack - a neccesity for me.
Anyway, I have extracted the footage from the DVD using DVD Decryptor and its left me with the AC3 audio and the M2V Video.
Now here comes the science bit...
When I come to create the AVI in TMPGENC, it shows my intended avi file as having an FPS of 29.97 and I set the video mode as 'interlaced'. But before I began transferring 31 m2v files to AVI I figured I better make 100% sure what I was doing was indeed correct.
So I loaded up the M2V File within DGIndex to see its properties.
Lo and behold it came up with the following:
Video Mode: Progressive
FPS - 23.976
Now I may be stating the obvious here but I need 100% clarifcation...does this mean that I need to create the avi using these settings? I would imagine that if I use 29fps, the audio will be out of synch.
I would be very grateful if someone could confirm this for me though...do I use these settings within TMPGENC and VEGAS when doing my project?
