Virtualdub filters in vegas

[bransholme]

I have a load of old VHS rips of old TV shows on my HD as AVI files, I have vegas video 5, and want to use some virtualdub filters to clean up the video. I know you are supposed to be able to use them directly without frameserving, but I cant figure out how to import the filters into vegas. any ideas?

bransholme - this is not going to help you directly, but did you search the forum? This came up sometime in the past few months and I think the post explained how to do this..maybe from BJ_M as I think he's a vegas user

I know you can do this by using Wax 2 which works as a plugin for Vegas. Not sure if you can use Vdub filters directly in Vegas.

[BJ_M]

get wax from debugmode.com, install, and you can use many v-dub filters directly in vegas ....

[bransholme]

thanks, will try that.

wax crashes vegas for me every time.

wax crashes vegas for me every time.

In Wax (launch as standalone), go to Edit - Preferences, and uncheck "Use 3D Hardware Acceleration" this can cause crashes for some users. If this is already unchecked, or doesn't fix the problem, leave a message for Satish on the Debugmode.com forum - he's very responsive.

Edit - Also just saw the check box for "Use Dummy Host Media in Wax Plugin for Sony Vegas" - might give that a try too!

[BJ_M]

Safesurfer is right on both counts .... should fix it right up .... hardware Acceleration only works on some cards (not sure which)
