Tweak to RenderQue script

JohnnyRed wrote on 7/30/2006, 7:57 AM

Sometimes I render projects with a 4:3 aspect ratio to 1280:720 Windows media files so that I can watch them on my computer. I've got a bunch of old projects that I want to render in a batch.

If I modify RenderQue to render the "1 Mbps HD 720-30p Video" Windows media template, Vegas always renders them with the video stretched to fill output frame size. I would prefer to letterbox the output.

How can I tweak the RenderQue script so that the resulting wmv files have been letterboxed? Or, is there another script I can use that is easier to do this with?

I'm not familiar with the RenderQue script but, assuming it uses the RenderArgs class, there's a StretchToFill property which, if set to false, will letterbox rather than stretch.

If the script does not use RenderArgs, it should be fairly easy to replace the call(s) to Vegas.Render to the version that takes a RenderArgs object.
