    HI I would like to use PIP from Vasst freeware. Will
    this work in Vegas 10. I downloaded it but it doesn’t
    show up in Vegas 10. If not is there another program
    that will let me do this.
    Thanks
    Patti

    [Patti Arrigo] “HI I would like to use PIP from Vasst freeware. Will this work in Vegas 10.”

    Which version of 10.0.. Pro or Movie Studio? VASST Freeware only works in the Pro version of Vegas and yes, it’s compatible with Vegas 6 thru Vegas Pro 11.0.

    Where are you looking for it? It should be under Tools | Scripting | VASST Freeware

    Try re-installing PIP Selection. If you want to see if it’s being installed properly, look under:

    %AppData%\Sony\Vegas Pro\Script Menu\VASST Freeware

    You should see PIPSelection. All of our freeware places a link in this folder so that all version of Vegas Pro will pick it up in their script menu.

    I found it……says that I have to select a video clip
    which I did. Why doesn’t it recognize the selection that I made…. I am using a multi cam and would like
    to make a picture in picture now and then. I am doing
    something wrong. Also how would I do a side by side.
    I have a dialog going on between the stage and a man in
    the audience.

    [Patti Arrigo] “Why doesn’t it recognize the selection that I made…. I am using a multi cam and would like to make a picture in picture now and then. I am doing something wrong. “

    It works at the event level. So you must have an event selected and then make a timeline selection that is within that event and it will keyframe Pan/Crop to make the event smaller.

    [Patti Arrigo] “Also how would I do a side by side. I have a dialog going on between the stage and a man in
    the audience.”

    I would use Track Motion for that. Just use Track Motion on each of the tracks to move them side-by-side.

    Also, this tutorial on my web site might help:

    I did a PIP and then rendered to a new track. (master track)
    My PIP is gone all of them. I thought this would save rendering
    time and do my mp4….mepg2 etc DVD. I don’t know what went
    wrong. (I have sent out 2 videos this way and its all wrong.)

    It’s hard to say what could have gone wrong but I’m not sure why you are rendering to a new track. This just makes more work to keep track of. Just leave the PIP as it is and render the project and see if it works.
