Final newbie question of the day – saving images
Posted by Jon Smith on February 27, 2013 at 12:18 amI have tried finding the answer to this on the site with no luck.
I have saved a frame via the save icon on the video preview. Then I am using it as a background for a lame special effect for my son, but when the still is show instead of the video clip it jumps a bit as the aspect ration is just slightly off. Not a lot, but enough to make it appear to move a bit, very distracting. Any ideas on how to fix?

Else, try changing to Best FullScreen preview mode before saving, and check pan crop that the image is the same aspect as the project/video. I’ve had this problem before but I can’t reproduce it now…. but it should be an easy fix.

directly above where you have it and then use the Track Motion
on that track to match exactly like how it is below….hope you
understand that.
You may can even use the Event pan/crop feature to match it.Steve Rhoden

If you are using Vegas 11 or 12, you do not need to switch to best/full on the preview window – Vegas does this as it saves the image.

February 27, 2013 at 3:40 pmIf you have Vegas Pro, use a Velocity envelope to instantly freeze the video at the desired point.
Make the freeze as long as necessary and then resume it at the appropriate time. -

to zero where you want it freezes the image.Steve Rhoden
