I am using Vegasaur toolkit too. And in that i have Quick Render & Transcoder for batch rendering. but they have a problem. When u will start render using Quick Render & Transcoder, they will hide Vegas window due to which i can't watch rendering preview. I need to check preview window to check render is going well and also if it stuck somewhere in which frame it got stuck so i come back to VEGAS's default script Batch Render.

now just I need this help. Can I give Batch Render script a custom icon. if yes please explain?

Just give the png the same name as the script and put them together in your "Documents\Vegas Script Menu" folder. I use 16x16 with bit-depth of 32 which works.

@iEmby @jetdv

I watched the tutorial long enough to learn that the .png file has to have at least one transparent pixel.

@iEmby Technically, it doesn't "have" to have a transparent pixel. But it MUST be RGBA or, as @Howard-Vigorita said, a 32-bit image (not a 24-bit image) and the simplest way I've seen to make sure that is forced is to include a transparent pixel. Then it must be saved as RGBA. And it must be properly named as @snibchi1 mentioned.

The simplest way in Photoshop...

@john_dennis, I actually don't use PhotoShop and I know it's possible to save 32-bit PNGs without having a transparent pixel. However, if the image DOES have a transparent pixel, it's forced to use RGBA instead of RGB in all programs - whether or not they have that option easily findable.

It's tripped people up before and probably will again. With my memory, I'll probably be one of them.
