    OK – now PAL 1.0926 – it crops at top and bottom – but does this consistently whether rendering or not.

    FIXED!! What I did was untick the “Maintain aspect ratio” under the Source in the Pan/crop window left column. Checked with several images and things render as seen in preview now.

    I notice you have this ticked on, but created your own 16×9 screen. I suppose these fixes are related in some way?

    Don’t change the Media, I was wrong. But it gave me a further clue as to maybe what was needed.

    I’m now thinking that as we have a Pan/Crop for 16×9 the Tool is thinking that everything is 16×9 ready for cropping, when in actual fact this and my picture isn’t! So, needing to make my own Crop Preset for Square Pixel Media produces that outcome. It works and it covers the whole screen.

    What do you think?

    This is the biggest pain I’ve had with Vegas in 4 years. I think it was something like you mentioned. Easy fix for me was to untick maintain aspect ratio and that did the trick!

    thanks for your patience and help. I really appreciate it.

    On re-reading Andrew’s advise, he should get the Kudos! – I got there by trying to understand the logic of the process.
