Why did you disable resample? That what I usually do for all my video's and there's been no issues with it.

Check for rogue keyframes at the bottom of the pan/crop window. The padlock turns them on and off.

I am trying that now and I don't believe it's working. I'm rendering out one section now to figure out if it just a lag issue but I'm fairly certain it's not.

Edit: not a lag issue, frames being heavily skipped.

Start here, and include a screenshot of your rntire pan/crop window.

"...turn off maintain aspect ratio..."

Not going to help your frame skipping issue, but no one wants to see their baby picture distorted. Leave Maintain Aspect Ratio switched on. Everyone knows the pictures were shot at a different aspect ratio.

Tell us something about your system and video hardware and driver versions.

Turned the maintain aspect ratio back on but I need the picture to take up the entire screen, frames are still skipping on there, I have a Lenovo Ideapad 310, running Windows 10, with Sony Vegas Pro 15. I just don't get why this is happening because it never has before. I'm going to try and see maybe if it's something with the project I'm in, maybe starting a new on the baby picture portion.

Edit: Frames still skipping on that picture and one other that I've worked on out of 4. What's weird is how that some pictures have skipping frames while other pictures don't. As if there is something wrong with the .png / .jpg I've been using for these

Never had this issue.... but you can try resave those problematic images using your image editing apps and try check again. Hope helps.

Pull down the bottom of your pan /Crop window to expose the keyframes.

I suspect, lacking your screenshot, that you have not yet found them.

You don't have to distort the face to make most 4:3 pictures fill a 16:9 screen.

@john_dennis - Yep, got my Vote! ✔️

Off topic: I believe this is VP feature. When it detects squeezed faces it automatically starts add jumps or others artifacts (sometimes makes the whole frame green) to shift attention from these deformed faces to something different. As a last resort it is crashing :)
