Save a frame as jpeg

Ok, I found it, right after I posted the question.

And you know that you should have the preview not in the lowest resolution when you make a framegrab?

In fact you should have it at “best/full”.

” In fact you should have it at “best/full”.

No, from version 9d, this is not the case anymore. Thats why I explained it in the way I did. The new rules are:

Copy Snapshot to Clipboard and Save Snapshot to File now deinterlace interlaced images and operate at Best (Full) resolution if the Video Preview is set to (Auto) size and Good quality if set to Draft or Preview.

So you can leave the preview settings to AUTO

Theo,
I’ll be darned, I missed that. Thank you.

[Greg Snidow]

Yep, I found that to get the best quality it needs to be in best>full. However, I still see some interlacing affects. Is there a way to deinterlace a single frame? Thanks

Which version of Vegas pro are you using?

If it is not the 9d version, you can set the project properties at progressive before taking the snapshop.
Alternatively, you can deinterlace the jpg file in photoshop.
