Render to Image Sequence

heg wrote on 7/20/2016, 7:15 AM

You'll find it in the first option in "Output Format", there you select wich extension (jpg, bmp, etc) your image sequence will be.

BobDiMarzio wrote on 7/20/2016, 8:39 AM

Even after reinstalling It is not there.
The First option is:
>MainConcept AVC/AAC (*.mp4*.avc) followed by
>MainConcept MPEG-1 (*.mpg)

etc

I even uninstalled and reinstalled.without issue.

I've had no problem exporting all formats including image sequence with Adobe Premiere CC2015 but I would like to someday cut the cord to the subscription.

Be sure you don't have "Favorites" nor "Project Properties" option selected in your render window.

I do not have any thing checked. Sadly Sony no longer supports Vegas and redirects all questions/concerns to Magix and Magix does not have Vegas on the List, on their questions reporting page so it's impossible to ask tech support.

"You might have to use the scroll bar to see the whole Render As dialog box."

Look at the state of the More Filter Options link to the right of the Output Format Menu option. Uncheck everything for now.

At the bottom of the Render As dialog box, check View All Options to expose anything checked that might filter your options.

As you can see from the linked image, I do not have an Image Sequence option.

WOW you are correct! It's missing!!! It should be between FLAC Audio and MainConcept AVC like this:

That's from my Vegas Pro 13.0

I was able to reproduce your bug by renaming C:\Program Files\Sony\Vegas Pro 13.0\FileIO Plug-Ins\wicplug\wicplug.dll so that Vegas couldn't find it when creating the Render As dialog box. It's probably not as simple as that, though.

WIC _ The Windows Imaging Component (WIC) provides WIC-enabled applications to display and edit any image format for which a WIC-compliant CODEC is installed, and also to read and write metadata in image files.

dear oh dear - not showing up here either and i do have the right .dll

i suppose this is another bug that'll hang around?

Well here V13 Pro Build 453 has Render to Image Sequence, just where Johnny Roy shows it above.

How can the same program be different? Must be something somewhere ...

What Build number have you got?

BobDiMarzio wrote on 7/21/2016, 7:08 AM

I also Have Build 453 and I do have wicplug.dll butt still do not have render to Image sequence option....

Sounds like it might be an old bug indeed -- one that has been around since V2.
With Vegas closed, temporarily rename the FileIOPlugins folder to something else.
Open Vegas -- it may complain, may not.
Close Vegas, rename the folder to the original, and reboot your computer.
If you're looking in the right menu, all your options should have reappeared.

Ok I tried replacing the .DLL file with the one supplied by John Dennis. Nothing I tried the method recommended by Musicvid10. Still no option to render to an image Sequence yeesh. It would be nice if we could ask development but Sony will no longer take questions and Magix won't provide a path to accept questions related to Vegas Pro.

I can duplicate the problem if I turn check the MATCH PROJECT SETTINGS option, which apparently you have unchecked. Have you tried toggling the check-box just in case? Probably won't make a difference but easy to try.

BobDiMarzio wrote on 7/21/2016, 9:26 AM

Yes all boxes unchecked.

Same thing here with my copy, wonder if it has something to do with the files Sony transferred in the sale.

Build 453 here, under Win 7, image sequence is present.

wwaag wrote on 7/21/2016, 10:41 AM

No problem here either in a Win 10 fresh install.

vkmast wrote on 7/21/2016, 10:49 AM

It seems you can still download VPro 13 b 453 (which for me has this missing template) from this site.
Maybe try that to see if the problem is with the Magix download.
Probably not though as this was reported as early as here.

FWIW I do have DVD Architect Pro 5.2 installed as well. You never know...

john_dennis wrote on 7/21/2016, 1:49 PM

When I focused on wicplug.dll I didn't anticipate that there was necessarily anything wrong with the file. I was mainly curious to know what was used to present the render option.

[USWAG]

The options presented are context sensitive based on the media on the timeline, pixel dimensions, aspect ratio, frame rate, phase of the moon, etc. not to mention user filters. There are many ways for an option to be excluded. Conceivably, the exclusion could even be affected by Windows components, hardware drivers or other differences between systems. I've seen the Sony AVC encoder excluded by a video driver long ago in a galaxy far away.

[/USWAG]

Perhaps we should do a brief inspection of the hardware platforms, operating system version, type of video card and driver, etc. for those affected?

What kind of media is in your timeline and what does your project settings look like?
