[BETA] Pin Image/Video to motion track

sebastianS wrote on 9/6/2018, 4:11 AM

Dear Community,

We have already seen some nice work you have created with Vegas's motion tracker.

Here is a preview of an upcoming update:
A script enabling you to pin an image or a video to a motion track.

Edit: That script is now part of VP16 Update 2

Please note that this is a beta version and maybe contain errors. Use this at your own risk.

To use this script:

Create track motion on an event using Bézier mask FX
Apply Picture-In-Picture FX to the event (from a different track) that you want to follow along with the motion on the original event
Adjust location, scale and angle of PiP FX for a certain point in time.
Select both events (hold ctrl key)
Run the script

Best regards,
VEGAS Pro team

it would be great if you could make it work not only with bezier, so we can link motion tracking masks that were made by hand, btw is it possible?

You will find that script as a menu item in Tools->Scripting->Copy Motion Track to PiP.

But first you have to follow this instructions:

Create track motion on an event using Bézier mask FX.
Apply Picture-In-Picture FX to the event (from a different track) that you want to follow along with the motion on the original event.
Adjust location, scale and angle of PiP FX for a certain point in time.
Select both events (hold ctrl key)
Run script

@zhuge Which version of VP16 are you using? What is your build number? You need at least build 307.
