  • Cant render in sony vegas due to: “Warning, the source image has non-zero RGB values in pixel with zero in Alpha channel”

    Posted by Danny Lines on March 1, 2014 at 3:44 pm

    SO I have been editing in sony vegas and have attempted to render the clip about, however every time i render it says ” Warning, the source image has non-zero RGB values in pixel with zero in Alpha channel.” and it is taking forever to render. Just to render out 3 frames just to test if sony vegas was actually working, it took 3 minutes. Anyone know whats going on here then? My laptop is slow but not anyway near that slow s i have no idea whats happening or what “Warning, the source image has non-zero RGB values in pixel with zero in Alpha channel” means

    In addition to what others have said, what is the image in question? Do you have any idea? It sounds like a still image. Not many video formats support Alpha and there can be some issues there. I have heard that DNxHD from Avid which has the Alpha backwards of what most other programs use.

    Having spent the best part of 30 minutes researching this, learning waaaaay too much about stuff that I can’t believe I’ve been able to muddle through on without the knowledge, I came across this real doozy! And I have to say, I really don’t know how I’ve ever got on in Life without it?

    I know, it IS spectacular from Wiki:-

    OK, some brevity . . . . I’d be considering doing SOMETHING to that AVI prior to importing to Vegas. Somewhere the numerical, math part of the CODEC has got its undergarments into a right royal mishegas ( that’s yiddish for: Insanity or craziness). A set of ALPHA and non-RGB pixels are playing hide n seek. But I’m willing to be corrected – of course.

    Sometimes Pixels that should be Transparent are Opaque; other Pixels that are SUPPOSED to be Opaque are Transparent or even SEMI Transparent and that the CODEC is having “issues”.

    Grazie

    You do, do you? I don’t . . . .

    Something is ripping apart your VP11 – oh yeah, what BUILD of VP11 are you on?

    I think you need to describe just WHAT you’ve got on those 59+ Tracks?

    What your Project Settings are?

    What MediInfo says about your Media?

    What MP4 Format you’re rendering to?

    There is something choking Vegas on its ability to Render to that MP4 Format.

    Try a Lossless codec like Lagarith . . . please?

    Also just GRAB and copy over that Selection and plop it into a NEW Veg. and try rendering that.

    Grazie

    Looks like you have twixtor in your effect chain? Does the problem still exist with twixtor removed?
