Rendering of Vegas Photo Compilation
Hi All
Another quick one – I have made a photo compilation in Vegas. I wish to include this in a DVD Architect project for burning onto a DVD. Do I render as a normal mpg2 DVD Architect widescreen PAL template (As I would a normal piece of film) or Do I render as mpg2 progressive scan (As I would if it were a DVD menu video)? I intend to place it in DVD architect as a movie (ie not use ‘picture compilation’ at all)
Many thanks

You can render either way. I would choose progressive.
DVDA handles progressive movies and backgrounds equally well.Jeff

Thank you.

Actually the only progressive format that DVD Architect will accept without re-rendering is 24p so you should render using one of the DVD Architect 24p templates.

Thanks – since it doesn’t make any difference I’ll just stick to rendering as DVDA widescreen PAL template (interlaced). But this is good to remember for menu intros that require progressive rendering.

Well… it DOES make a difference. If you have a progressive TV your DVD player will feed progressive video to it and you will never see interlace “twitter”. If you always interlace your photos, you may (and probably will) see some horizontal line twitter if you give the photo any movement. Of course, if your photos have no movement, then you are correct… it doesn’t matter.

In that case, shouldn’t the files for every DVD regardless of content, be rendered in a progressive format? ie This DVDA Widescreen Pal Template default setting is not ideal?

No, this should only be done for content which is progressive to begin with like photographs or film transfers.
