Steve,
This were .mov files from mac, converted to .mxf with Convergent Design’s FileConverter.
Everything is fine when I import the clips into Vegas, but when I start editing, moving clips on trimming I get these ramdom green frames.Where can I look to find what’s wrong?
kind regards
[Steve Rhoden] “No, that is not a known issue with Vegas. Maybe you have
a codec issue on your system. What format are these files?” -
[John Rofrano] “Have you opened it up in an image editor to confirm it is pixelated and the wrong dimensions? I use this all the time and it works perfectly.”
John, I havent opened it in a proper image editor yet. But when I paste the “copied to clipboard” file in Paint, it is already pixelated.
Also, saving snapshop to file, I put the clip on the timeline it is pixelated.
I used to do this with earlier versions of vegas…very weird this is happening.
But will open the files in photoshop and see what is going on.[John Rofrano] “Here is an easier workaround. Make a subclip that ends at the freeze point. Drop the subclip on the timeline, right-click on it and disable looping. Drag the clip as long as you want and it will repeat the last frame as a “freeze frame”.”
That is a very good tip John. Thank you.

thank you Mike, I will try that one.
[Mike Kujbida] “Use a Velocity envelope to instantly freeze the video at the desired point.
Make the freeze as long as necessary and then resume it at the appropriate time.” -
Yes John,
I am saving the snapshot at Best (FULL) but it always pixelates the file.
The workaround I found was to isolate the 1 frame and copy it several times on the timeline.
This must be a “stupid” way to do it but it works for now as I am struggling to deliver a project.thanks a lot

[John Rofrano] “[Joao Carlos Schwalbach] “I have tried both: copying to clipboard and saving snapshot to file on FULL RESOLUTIONS but when I bring the file back to the timeline it is pixelated.”
How are you doing this? Are you setting the preview to Best (Full) before you save the image using the save image button? (you should be) This should give you an image with the same resolution as the project.” -
Hi,
I think that is like walking slower from A to B and getting to B and the same time than walking faster.
The transition starts when the blend starts and stops when the blend stops…the the speed of the transition is directly proportional to the size of the blend…or am I missing something here?regards

[Petroi Teodora] “I’d like to slow down only the transition…”
-
There were still tiny little black stripes in the bottom and top of the frame but with Crop/Match Output Aspect solved it…
Great!!! -
have you tried making the transition longer?
-
Bingo!!!
That solved it John.
Somehow Vegas did not set the pixels aspect right and it was 1.0 (square).
Changed it to 1.4568 (pal dv widescreen) in event properties/media and it did the job.
Since I only have 6 big clips (events) this is easy to change. In the case that I have a lot of events is there a way to change this setting (or any other) for all of them at once?Thank you very much for the support.
regards
joao
[John Rofrano] “Right-click on the event that is on the timeline and look at the Media tab and see what format Vegas thinks the file is. It may be interpreting it incorrectly and you may have to adjust the Pixel Aspect Ratio if it is not correctly displaying as PAL Widescreen.”
