Problem creating a image sequence in Vegas Pro 17 latest build

bryan-quarrie wrote on 2/3/2020, 7:20 AM

Hi,

In the past I have created time-lapse videos out of imported jpegs using the import media> click on image sequence start/end boxes, then open the images.

In the latest build, after you've imported the images and placed the media on the timeline, it only shows the first few and last few images of the sequence when you play it. It didn't do this in previous builds.

What is wrong here?

Thanks :)

UPDATE:

I’ve done the second timelapse with my other camera, and after importing the jpegs from it, worked in Vegas as it should 👍👏👏.

My conclusion therefore is to do with the default numbering scheme between the Yi 4k+ and the Sony RX0ii. For some reason the Yi was skipping frames, so I will try the renaming method suggested by john dennis for the Yi’s jpegs and try importing again.

Thanks everybody for your help!!! It’s all good now 👏👏

If you can shoot RAW, I'd recommend it.

Can Vegas import RAW directly?

Vegas Pro reads many RAW photo files if you have the Windows or Adobe RAW package installed (just like Adobe DNG), but Vegas does not read the RAW metadata which makes using RAW files in Vegas Pro less useful.

.nef format it can. .raf, .dng, .cr2 etc needs installing their codecs. No development tabs in Vegas where you can set ISO etc, preview only.

Not so the .r3d:

Oh, Marco beat me to it. :)

@bryan-quarrie So there is no "major bug" after all. Glad you got it sorted. I've taken the liberty of altering the thread title to "problem" instead of "major bug". It might mislead someone in the future searching with a similar problem.

Thanks EricLNZ - Sorry about how it sounded.
