- HDV to HD-DVD

After editing the HDV in Vegas 7, how do I export the clip to Ulead?

Export to Ulead for what?
But to leap ahead. Export(render) your vegas project into a format that
Ulead will import.

l e o,
Render the file in Vegas to the same native mpeg2 format (1440 by 1080)
using the Vegas HDV NTSC preset, and then import the file into the Ulead
video library as a clip. It can then be authored as an HD-DVD by Ulead.

l e o,
I answered your specific question regarding Vegas to Ulead in a prior reply,
but wanted to add......
I know you (and I) own and use Vegas 7, but I must say that I often do the
editing entirely within Ulead Video Studio 10 Plus and go directly to HD-DVD
rather than use Vegas 7. Vegas 7 is more capable, but takes a lot longer
with no apparent gain in ultimate quality. I would encourage you to use the
trial version of Video Studio 10 to try this method, as it is considerably
faster and often does an adequate job of editing.

I have not used Ulead for editing and I don't think I'll bother with it.
I like Vegas 7, it's very easy to handle L-cut now and also seamlessly
integrates with Sonic Forge. I wish there is a way to preview HDV in
external monitor. Vegas 7 can only handle DV out. Previewing with HC3's
DV-in is odd, because it leaves some borders in all sides of the LCD screen.
I was looking for something like HDV export but didn't see it. I'll look
again. In fact, I should learn to use Premiere pro + Audition.

l e o,
The only way I am aware of to take edited HDV output from Vegas and preview
it in HDV is either to add a Blackmagic Decklink or AJA card connected to an
HD monitor (both relatively expensive), "print" the HDV output to a tape and
play it back for preview using the HC3 camcorder (slow and klunky approach)
or preview it in the software player (very small and essentially useless for
critical viewing). The HDV export you are looking for is either a "print to
tape" or rendering out to another HDV file. The only fast and good way to
preview is to add a hardware card as stated above. This is another reason
why I like Ulead. The preview player is essentially full screen, requires no
additional hardware, and plays smoothly with very high quality. Try to do
that with the latest versions of either Final Cut Pro Studio HD or Vegas
7..........you can't !!!!!

I have no trouble editing on PC (I don't have the need to see it in full
HDV resolution) but I need TV out to check for final
brightness/contrast. I just have to make do with DV out to HC3 with
slightly shrunken size.

l e o,
If, as you state, you are merely interested in checking brightness /
contrast and don't particularly care about the editing details, then another
Vegas 7 option would be to take a Firewire DV to NTSC analog output device
and preview your content in real time. For this purpose I use the Sony
Digital Media Converter, the DVMC-DA2. Dazzle and other companies have made
similar devices. Also, some camcorders (possibly the HC3?) can take Firewire
DV input and make video analog video / audio output in real time. This would
allow you to see basic brightness, contrast, etc. albeit in standard def,
4:3.

This is exactly what I am doing. HC3 doesn't use full screen for DV in.

If the preview is adequate for contrast and brightness adjustment, then this
will suffice. It is the simplest and lowest cost solution, which is
generally my favorite.
