Vertical Mode render issues with Vegas Pro 10:

[John Rofrano]

[Phil Loarie] “I keep getting these ugly vertical lines, like it’s an interlace thing but I am setting it all to progressive mode. “

Apparently you’re not setting it correctly. 😉

What is the Deinterlace Mode set to in your project properties?

If it’s set to None, set it to Blend Fields or Interpolate Fields.

UPDATE:
Before you guys waste anytime, I think I found the problem. It should be 720×1280, but the numbers say 720×1080, so instead of too much width, I don’t have enough. I think that
might explain the ugly interlace like stripes from stretching the image width which for now makes sense to me.

I’ll re-render with the correct numbers later today and let you know if that solves it or not and post an update tomorrow.

Thank you John,
I will make that adjustment, but I think I need to address the wrong render numbers as in change 720×1080 to 720×1280 too.

Hello John,
Again my thanks for taking time to review my questions.

I believe we have two issues here.

1) geometry:
I goofed on my original render as trying for 720 x 1080, and then thought, oh I just need to make my H at 1280, but Vegas Pro 10 won’t let you make anything higher than 1080 for H. So I had to do a little math and set W to 608 and H as 1080. A friend of mine can get 720 x 1280 but he is using some version of Final Cut. Perhaps there is something I am missing about doing vertical mode with Vegas Pro 10 so I would be happy to learn what that might be.

2)stripes:
once I was able to get the geometry in shape, I then made three renders regarding Project Properties Deinterlace method; none, blend and interpolate. I saw no change with these settings, all still had the stripes.

You can go to the last link I posted where the new video render is to see that it still has the ugly stripes (easier to see during the swish in or out of each shot). I believe this is the render using ‘interpolate’.

If you can point me to a good tutorial for Vegas Pro 10 setting for Vertical Render, this would be great.

Thank again,
-Phil

Update:
I was able to make a good render by checking each clip property to be sure it had “upper field” checked. I also noticed that on another video if you reverse the clip the field order will change, e.g. if it was upper field it will become lower field. Not sure why this fixed my render issue, but it did it, no more ugly lines.

So thanks again for reviewing this.
