Sony Vegas Pro 11 rendering default template? (uncompressed avi)

[John Rofrano]

[Ashley Kay] “How come Sony Vegas Pro 11 doesn’t have this format like the older versions do?”

You would have to ask Sony why they made this change. Since using the default template is absolutely the wrong choice 99% of the time, I’m guessing they removed it to reduce support calls. It is very rare that someone would need to render to uncompressed and unless they had a RAID 0 array with a minimum of 5 drives, they shouldn’t even be thinking in these terms for HD work.

Why do you feel you need uncompressed?

Why not just create your own template if you absolutely need it?

I just found it the uncompressed format. What I usually do is I render it uncompressed and compress it using a separate software program.

That’s the 1% where uncompressed makes sense. 😉

That is so not helpful. You asked a question, other people with the same question perform a Google search and find this post. Then you say, “I found it,” but you don’t say where/how. This thread is officially worthless as a result. If you have a moment, please explain how to render videos to uncompressed AVI format in Vegas Pro 11. Thank you.

Matt, with all due respect, for your very first post on here, you’re not off to a good start.
This topic (custom render template) has been discussed on here numerous times.
After you pick the format you want (in this case AVI), click the Custom button and then make the necessary changes in the window that comes up.
Be sure to save it so that it will come up for future use.
