Hi,
New guy here. As a matter of fact, I am so new at this that I don't think I can even be classified as a Firstling. :-( Is there something below that classification? Pond scum? Single-cell amoeba?
I read through a great deal of the "how to guides" etc posted, but am not quite sure my question is answered.
I am using Sony Vegas Pro 10.0b and Sony SoundForge Pro 10 (both are full version, legal, purchased) to start my first "real" fanedit. To extract/rip the dvd source, I am using DVDFab Platinum 8
What is the best format to convert a store-bought DVD (i.e. .vob) to edit from using Vegas (or for editing in general should I decide on using some other program? I do not want to use .mpg because the video and audio go out of sync over the length of the file ( an issue with Sony Vegas and some cases Adobe Premier CS4 and 5).
Although I did overcome this issue with my "2001" edit, by extracting the audio from the dvd first then converting the video to .mpg separately. I then had a separate audio and a separate video file to drop onto the editing timeline in Vegas - no sync issues at all - even after a final render. A cool benefit of this process was that I had control over the 6 channels of audio too. The downside was that Vegas still didn't quite handle the final render - the video seemed to stutter a bit.
Any help from the Jedi Editing Council of Fanedit Masters would greatly appreciated!
(especially if I missed a thread on this that already exists).
I'm really looking forward to becoming involved in the forum/posting reviews etc.
Thanks!

UPDATE - I guess I should have said I use Aimersoft's Ultimate Video Converter 4 and AVS Video Converter 7 to handle the conversions.
