Have Vegas Pro 18. How do you Render a 4K video vertically?
In Render As... I choose MAGIX AVC/AAC MP4 and a 2160p resolution. Then Customize Template and Custom frame size. For height I enter 3840 and the program changes it to 2304. Can't seem to find a way to output 2160x3840.
Will there be support for 8K video? The new Nikon Z9 produces 8K 60p video and I might buy that camera if video editing software supports it.
Thanks!
Is a bit uninintuitive, what I do is import the video to the media window, not the timeline, there y do right click and rotate the video 90, and then import to the timeline, then render selectin mantaining the propierties of the timeline in the final render. This is the most easy way I have find to render vertically videos.
Thanks supergafudo! Where is the Maintain properties of the timeline setting? I might be looking right at it but not seeing it. I don't see it under Project Properties, or Render As... or ,Customize Settings.
Maybe can a picture you tell more than a thousand words, in this case for the visable rendertemplates it is very important what your projectproperties are, in this case high properties(1) give you a lot more rendertemplates (2)
Interesting that it filters like that, not displaying the higher res' unless your project is higher res'. Good tip.
I still can't make it vertical, though, because on the customize screen, the frame size is greyed out.
This should be the simplest of things. Getting frustrated. Not sure why MAGIX chose to disable setting the frame size (or when it is enabled, set a maximum of 2304 for height).
@supergafudo told you how to do that.
1. Open the file in Project Media
2. When it shows not vertical, rightclick on that file and and choose one of these two
3. Drag that file to the timeline and let the program choose its properties for the project.
Yes, I did exactly what @supergafudo said. Except for the setting "Maintain properties of the timeline", which I can't find anywhere and asked about in my first reply.
Why does MAGIX need to make this so arcane?

Are you trying to put a vertical video into a horizontal project? Impossible then to go higher than the max for that type of project, and you get big black parts in the rendered video, unless you use the FX "Black Bar Fill"
Set your project properties to the frame size you want to output at.
After adding the clip to the timeline, open the clip's properties and rotate it as needed.
Render it with a 4K render template edited to correspond to the project frame size settings.
If the frame size is larger than Vegas's 4K mp4 templates will accommodate you can use an add on rendering tool like Otter Scripts.
Here's the process:
Open Vegas with an empty project.
Add a landscape 4k video to the Project Media.
Right click it and choose rotate 90deg clockwise.
Now it is portrait orientation.
Add it to the timeline and choose Yes to set the project video settings to match the media. (this is the process that @supergafudo suggested)
Go to File->Render As...
Choose Internet UHD 2160p 25 fps template.
Click Customize Template.
Choose (Custom frame size)
Set Height to 3840 and press [Tab]
Height immediately changes to 2304. Can't get to be 3840. <--- this is the problem.
If I set the project properties to a greater width and height (a good tip suggested by @j-v), this makes more templates available in the Render As dialog. But, all of those higher res templates are landscape and the option to customize the Frame size is greyed out.
Looks like Otter Scripts with "RenderPlus" is $85: https://tools4vegas.com/get-a-license/ .
"Looks like Otter Scripts with "RenderPlus" is $85"
That could be the best $85 you ever spent.
If Wayne made $85/hour for the time he has spent working on the project, it would cost each user $4,385,846.23.

This is exactly what I'm facing as well. Did you ever get around to resolving this bud?
Upgrade to Vegas Pro 20-403 for $80 USD.
Interesting, I'll check it out mate.

Hmm... it is giving me an option to upgrade for $149, may be because I'm in the UK
@crazyapple Check your emails, I'm in the uk, i see that same web page but I've an email 04/06, it takes me to the Magix site to sign in, I did't look any further,,,
