Sony Vegas 8.0 Pro Masking Problem - YouTube

Postby FF7Destiny » Sat Jul 18, 2009 9:01 am

Hello, I'm having problems with masking, I know how to mask, it's just on Youtube I want my AMV to be full screen, on Sony Vegas I go to file, properties and change width to 640 and height to 360 then click on pan/crop and right click on the clip and choose "Match output aspect" Then I go to custom and check my image size is 640, 360. The problem is, it looks great on Sony Vegas:

But when I render it, it goes like this:

And it looks exactly like it - TERRIBLE on Youtube D; I really want it sort this out, but I don't know how, could anyone help please?

Check to make sure your project settings match your source. If the size of your source is different, change the project settings.If it is 640x360 then try these:
1. Right- click on your footage and go to properties. Uncheck the box that says "Maintain aspect ratio".
2. In the rendering window there is an option that says "Stretch video to fill output frame size (do not letterbox). Uncheck that box too and see if it still renders with the black box.
I don't see what this has to do with masking, though. In the second picture your mask looks fine... I'm pretty sure this is just a problem with the aspect ratio of your video. Hope this helps.

You ain't getting good quality out of the tube streaming. Your best bet is upscaling your export from 640x360 to 1280x720 and uploading that, since the HD feature makes videos look not so bad.
In order to upscale well, a good filter to use is nnedi2. Download the zip, put the nnedi2.dll that you find inside of it into your plugins directory of avisynth, and then make an avisynth script like so:
Code: Select all
avisource("your exported video.avi")
nnedi2_rpow2(2,1,3)


Also, I just noticed, but your preview isn't 640x360 but in fact 582x360, which means that in the preview it doesn't show your whole image, and your clip is already like that to begin with.
