    Hi, when I take a snap shot in Vegas 7 it looks fine, but when I apply pan and crop to add a little movement the edges are very jaggard.

    The snapshot you take from Vegas
    is a low resolution image….Panning and such
    is not gonna often yield a pleasing result.

    Hi Steve,

    Is there a better way? i am trying to create an effect that i used alot in Avid. Have a still at the end of a clip, add a white hard flash to simulate the camera flash and have the sill image b&w and stightly twisting.

    That shouldn’t be a problem. But just remember Vegas takes a snapshot of the preview window, not the video. So you must set the preview to “Best>Full” to get a full res snapshot. There are scripts that do this if you need it a lot.
