    Interesting.

    A quick jump over to iStock, and I saw that a HD quicktime movie there was rendered with the JpegMotion B codec, which Vegas has.
    Maybe you should start there.

    Good luck.

    John,

    Been there, done that. Motion JPEG A and Motion JPEG B, as I understand it, are for interlaced video. My footage is almost exclusively progressive, for which Photo-JPEG is recommended. Not that it makes any difference that I can actually see, having tried them all!

    Sure do appreciate your input on this.

    Hi John,

    I just reviewed this post (10th post in the thread) and re. yours: “Quicktime H.264 not available in Vegas” – this is available. Select Main Concept AVC/AAC (*.mp4) then confirm the custom template settings. Please note: I find that single pass, variable bit rate, maximum 10,000,000 (bps) and average 4,000,000 (bps), provides excellent results from my 1920 mxf source files. This will produce a H.264 Quicktime file which plays back in the Quicktime 7 player. Actually, this is my preferred render format, possibly 2nd best only to Blu-ray which of course you can’t edit.

    Hope this is helpful…
