Hello,
I'm an old Vegas forum member who's not done much video work for nearly 10 years, and haven't upgraded past Vegas Pro 12, nor have I visited the Magix forums much since the acquisition. But I still use Vegas occasionally for hobby work.
I'm helping out with the restoration of some video that was sourced from a professional telecine of 16mm film. To accomplish this, I've been provided some avi clips containing 1440x1080x24 motion jpegs, with a PAR of 1, which translates to 4:3 display aspect ratio. My project setting have been set to reflect these parameters and the image looks correct in the preview window.
To do the cleanup work, I take individual frames into an image editing program, then save the altered frame file with the same name, which Vegas recognizes automagically in the timeline. (Cool!)
In order to break out the frames, I have used the Vegas 'Render Image sequence', and saving as jpegs to a new folder, which gives me an individual file for each frame.
Here's my problem: The files Vegas is writing are 1920x1080, not 1440x1080. There doesn't seem to be a way of instructing Vegas to write the resolution that I want during the render.
I'd appreciate any suggestions. I'm guessing this isn't an area that's significantly changed in later versions of Vegas, so maybe I'm doing something wrong?
