Hi, When I get ready to render a video in Sony Vegas, I first use a bitrate calculator (
http://www.videohelp.com/calc.htm - thanks Guitard!) to find out the max bitrate possible. I used to use constant bit rate and I just plugged the calculated bitrate (from the website) - minus about 200-300 for audio etc - into Vegas as the constant bitrate. This worked fine.
I am now using 2 pass variable bitrate in Vegas. In Vegas there are 3 places to enter bitrate for VBR (max, average, and minimum). In the web-based bitrate calculator, there are two bitrates produced, "Calculated Bitrate" and "DVD Max Bitrate" Here is my question: What value(s) do I use from the web bitrate calculator to plug into the 3 VBR options in Vegas? TIA!
