Oh my God is this cool stuff! I had no idea Vegas could do this!

Be careful, supersampling is ONLY effective with animation of Vegas generated media. There was a claim made a long time back about it performing other miracles which were subequently found to be not so.

That would make sense, but what about those cool looking Indian dance clips here:

They certainly look better after supersampling, even though as I understand the principle, there shouldn't be that much improvement.

I've been doing the experiment myself. So far I haven't acheived the results of the test clips.

and you wont acheive those results either. Many have tried during that thread and it just didnt happen.

It's not so much that it didn't happen it's that it cannot happen.
Where the confusion came from is how Vegas drives the preview window I think. What you see in a small preview window may not be what the video really looks like. Adding the SUpersampling forced Vegas to resample the video and do a better preview, the actually video remained the same, you just got a higher res preview of it.

I concur that I am unable to get the same results. It also makes sense to me that I can't. What gets me is that I downloaded the "uprezzed" video and it looks really good! If I could get results as good as this demo did I'd be thrilled! I must be missing something. I did everything the same (as best I could tell) and the results are nowhere near as good.

Search for the thread from months ago. It got pretty heated and a lot of mean things were said. I think we should let this thread die, before things get heated agin.

I don't want to start any fights. I just discovered this feature and was curious as to what it could be used for. It does do an amazing job at smoothing over printed page movement. A little bit of motion blur seems to be key to making it useful.
