I create a lot of animation which is in the form of 16 bit PNG images. Vegas Pro 13 has no problem loading and playing these images as an animation. What I want to do though is render them to a video file so that I can use them in other projects without having to keep the PNG files around and as a way to archive them as a backup in case something happens to the images (eg disk storage failure.)
What would be the best format to render these animation in order to preserve quality? The original PNG images are HD (1920x1080) and I want to preserve that aspect ratio. I have Cineform but never really used it as I don't use much camera footage. Would this be the best codec to render to? I'd prefer a lossless format that didn't produce huge file sizes.
Any advice appreciated.
