  • Need to disable images from fading in and out

    Posted by Hannah Jacobs on October 14, 2011 at 7:40 am

    This is really weird to me, but I put some images in a track above a video, and instead of just instantly appearing and disappearing, they’re fading in at the beginning of each one and then fading out.

    The images aren’t overlapping, so it’s not a cross-fade situation, and I don’t purposefully have anything checkmarked to case that to happen.

    How can I stop this fade in/out from happening? I don’t have any transitions set or anything… I don’t remember this ever happening before, it’s driving me crazy. How can I just get the images to instantly appear and then disappear? Thanks in advance!

    Thanks a lot for the quick response, Roger. No, I don’t have the sliders on, it’s something much more bizarre, here’s what’s going on, in case anyone comes across this in the future:

    I’m editing a video recorded at 1 frame per second (fps) by someone who was recording their computer screen using one of those video screen-capture programs.

    When rendering in Vegas at normal frame rate, Vegas makes the images fade into each other! I was trying to add other screenshot images as overlays, and so I thought it was the image track doing it, but it was actually the video track. -Weird.

    I’m going to try to re-render the 1 fps video in an outside program to a normal frame rate, then work with THAT video in Vegas. That sure had me confused, there’s always something new. 🙂

    Try right-clicking on the event(s), selecting “Properties” and then selecting “Disable Resample”.

    Aha! Disable Resample! Excellent, thanks a lot for that. 🙂
    I just did this crazy interim render to WMV of all things just to remove those fades, it was a huge inconvenience.

    Disable Resample looks like all that’s needed, thanks so much for the tip. 🙂

    It was your “editing a video recorded at 1 frame per second” comment that clued me into what the problem might be so I’m glad that was the solution.
