Match Output Aspect – question/problem
Hi Folks.
Just a quick question.
Having used both Vegas 5 and 6 for the past year or so Ive
noticed one problem that keeps cropping up – namely, I’ll often
get a border showing up in finished videos, which looks out of place.
This problem can largely be prevented from happening if I go into Event Pan Crop and highlight each place marker (the diamond shaped thingummys) then select Match Output Aspect. Each frame is then expanded to its maximum size, and I dont get any borders showing up in the finished video.
Trouble is, its a long job selecting Match Output Aspect on every single frame. Is there an easy way to ensure the video frame size stays a constant size?(Apologies if this question isnt straight forward).
Thanks for any help.

Two ways to do this.
#1 (hard way). Do the Pan/Crop – Match Output Aspect sequence on the first image. Select Copy. Click the first image. Shift-click the last image. Right-click and select “Paste Event Attributes”. All images should now have this effect applied.
#2 (easy way). Download the Matchaspect script. -
Thanks for the tips, Mike.
I tried the 1st one (the copy and paste trick), and it
did do the trick, but it also pasted the special effects
and transitions from that one frame, into all the other frames.
So its no on that one.I’ll try the script next.
Thanks again.

Ah yes. I forgot to mention that “quirk”. I’ve been caught on it more than once so I should know better. The script is a great tool though and sits on my Vegas taskbar.

Tinfish, glad to hear that it worked for you. Scripts are amazing tools and I use them constantly. There’s a large collection of them on the Calderwood site as well as links to numerous other scripting sites. Enjoy.
