Rendering limit

[nevada11]

Exactly what the error says:

Sony Vegas 7.0

An error occurred while creating the media file Final Breath.avi

The file being rendering has exceeded the maximum size allowed for the selected format.

(Which is avi... and my details are on previous posts)

Well, either clear up some space or get a new HDD. You're not going to get anything but crap for quality if you try it another way.

[nevada11]

theres a reason its uncompressed. Im making it mp4(h.264) so that problem's cleared up. You know of another way?

[taifunbrowser]

ooh wait there's a way!

get the debugmode frameserver (I'm not sure where I got it... sorry) and feed the "fake" avi it makes you into zarxgui!~

[nevada11]

i already have zarxgui . Thats not my problem though. Possibly thats the limit, for uncompressed avi rendering in Sony Vegas.(1.99 GB)

[taifunbrowser]

oh, and as for the script, they're easy but for the sake of simplicity why not just manually select regions that make sense and export them seperately... You do know that you can highlight a region, hit f4 and check "render loop region only" to get just the piece right? and hit 'n' to place a big red marker to make sure you don't leave out frames between pieces...

that being said, you do know how to avisynth-combine them back together afterwards?

Honestly, just export to lagarith and you wont go over 2 gigs... And if you have problems with lagarith, then ya your best option is just rendering in pieces...

export as a lagarith encoded avi

file size will be smaller than uncompressed

Make sure you have the option selected to have Vegas "Create an OpenDML (AVI version 2.0) compatible file". It's at the very bottom of this tab under the Custom Templates.

I did lagarith already but the videos playing in slow motion. Perhaps thats what you were reffering to Willen?

[nevada11]

no you werent, sorry. When I did lagarith it just played in absolute slow motion.
