can’t delete extra frames from After Effects work when in Vegas
I’ve been using Vegas for about 7 years now so I’m not a total noob, but tonight I noticed a new problem I’ve never encountered before.
After taking a clip captured by Vegas and doing some rendering fx work with it in After Effects, the new fx file will have either black frames at the beginning or will have a frozen image from the clip that preceds it in the time line. When I forward ahead into the clip and split it to remove the offending frames, it just adds the problem to the now shorter clip. I’ve rendered the clip in every format from After Effects and also the selected region (minus bad frames) in Vegas to try to get around this and absolutely nothing is working.
Anybody else have this problem and how did you solve it ? I’m at the end of my rope after 12 hours of effects work today.
Thanks,

I have never seen anything like this. I usually render out of After Effects using CineForm (I work primarily in HD) if I don’t need an alpha channel or Quicktime Animation if I do. I would try the Quicktime Animation codec and see if it helps.

Just had this exact problem today.
I captured my footage using a Matrox MXO2 Mini and not Vegas though. The codec I was using that had the stuck frame was QucikTime Animation…. The clip right before it was Lagarith lossless.
Any one else had this issue, or found a fix?
-ChrisPS. Using Vegas 9.0, have not tried the new update yet. Win 7 X64, AfterEffects CS4 (all up to date).
