What format are you rendering to?
What version of Vegas do you have?

WMV format.
Vegas 8.

Try the MainConcept AVC/AAC with the following custom settings.
If it’s still too big, lower the bit rate.

Tomorrow I’ll try that.
Thanks Mike 😉
It took 4 hours to render to WMV.
Now I’m rendering to MPG1 and it’s showing it’ll take only 2 hours.
I’m not a pro about video but those differences are huge.
Can you tell me something about them?
I mean about size/quality and uploading clips to youtube.

Thanks Mike 😉
It gave me a 300MB file, really smaller than 750 but still big.
Another guy told me to turn off all video files RESAMPLE and vegas will render faster and size will be even smaller.Do you know something about that?

……If you want faster render times you simply need to
get a faster more powerful system, diddle daddling with
settings etc, aint gonna be of any major improvement.

The only setting i would recommend you changing to get
a bit more speed in rendering is ; Under the Video tab
of the Project Properties, change Full-resolution rendering
quality to Good. (However, if pictures are on the timeline
to render, its better to have it at Best.

As Mike recommended to you, lower the bit rate and you
will get a smaller file size with still decent quality.

I don’t care too much about rendering time, the problem is the size.
Those Mike settings gave me a video with bad quality compared to WMV.
Why we can download 700 mb movies(around 2 hours long) in the net and my 10 minutes clip only with pictures is 750mb?How can I make it smaller without loosing too much quality?

Did you tried Rendering using the Sony AVC format?
Thats my preferred render format for media destined
for online.

No Steve, I’m a musician so my life is about recording audio, I just started making my own clips reviewing gear and of my own songs.
Could you share some settings?
Thanks.

Steve i got a 300mb file which is paradise comparing to 750 I was getting with WMV.
Thanks a lot.
Are there any other advices to get smaller clips?
