Problem with Picture Time-Lapse
Hey there…
I’m doing a Time-Lapse with about 700 hundred pictures. I want to render it at 720p. I’m not having problems with pictures that have small resolution (for example: 800×600) but I’m having problems with the ones that have big resolution.
These ones, are bigger than 1280×720, so when I render only like a quarter of the pic shows in the video. I tried then to render it at 1080p but the same happened, because some pics are just too big. It’s weird because in the preview, I see them completely, without problems, but when I render don’t.
Here’s what I’ve done:
– Import media
– Select the first pic
– Check on “open sequence”
– Then on properties, I changed the FPS to 12,000
– I did the same to the “project properties” and changed it to 12,000
– Unchecked “keep aspect ratio” to avoid black bars.
– I chose a video format, changed resolution to 720p
– Finally renderI’m using Vegas Pro 11 (701 build). I’ll appreciate any help or comment.

[Mark Taramona] “I’m not having problems with pictures that have small resolution (for example: 800×600) but I’m having problems with the ones that have big resolution.
– Check on “open sequence””The problem is that you don’t have an “image sequence”. An image sequence is a sequence of images that all have the same resolution from the same source. So what you are trying to do won’t work. If you really have several image sequences, then I would import every set of pictures that has a different resolution separately.

This is what you need to do in-order to see the entire image. On your clip in the timeline to the far right of your clip ( the ending) your will see a plus sign & a square box. Click the square box, that opens your pan & crop window. The window that opens defaults to position verses mask, the options to change between the 2 are at the bottom left of this window. Since it defaults to position you can now go to the top of this window & click to open the presets that are available for you to choose your output setting. For instance if you are rendering to 16/9 widescreen simply choose the preset that say’s 16/9 widescreen. Sometimes this will crop the top & bottom of your picture, if this happens there are 2 things you can do. 1 is you can drag the box in the window to re-locate what your picture is showing. You will have to make sure your tools are set to lock. I’m not in front of Vegas right now so all this is off of memory. There are tools in the far left you can engage & disengage. like enable snapping. 2 you can see that once you changed this setting the numeric values at the top left of this window has changed, you can use these numbers to output WHATEVER size you need, by simple putting in whatever numeric value that’s needed. so you will be able to see the entire picture if that’s what you need.
Have fun!
