No, the TV is LCD. The TV looks sharper. It’s the resolution that concerns me.

Thanks, Oliver. I managed to make the thing work,- I’m not entirely sure how, – and took screenshots of all the settings!

Incidentally, I can see the Alpha channel pictures as a series of .TIFF stills in my target folder.

Thanks very much Adam,- your example file is exactly what I needed.

[Dave Edwards]

Thank you both,- problem solved!

[Dave Edwards]

Hi Adam, thanks for your response: I think I somehow managed to set my object in the wrong plane which confused the issue: anyway, problem now solved.

[Dave Edwards]

Please ignore: problems solved!

Thanks for that, Alf: I believe the drivers to be up-to-date.

In case this is significant I have four monitors driven by a pair of NVidia GeForce 8600GT cards. If I select a monitor for preview which normally shows the timeline then it is the timeline that breaks through.

Hi: a trick I pull when Vegas refuses to render is as follows:

1 Save your problematic project as
2 Select the entire timeline and hit delete
3 Open a second instance of Vegas with the problematic .veg file
4 Select the entire timeline and copy and paste this into project
5 Try to render this

I’m using Windows 7 64 bit,- but this may be worth a try as it has got me out of a hole several times.

Hi: I no longer use Movie Studio – I now use Vegas Pro – but there may be a link similar to HELP > SONY ON THE WEB > LATEST UPDATES. If not, take a look here: https://www.sonycreativesoftware.com/download/updates

Are you trying to render an HD project? You could try to render in a lower resolution just to check that your project has not somehow become corrupt.
