If your movie is in 1280x720, leave the next option alone.
Now go down to the "echo Crop(0,0,-0,-0) >> "%mypath%\%mymovie%.avs" line and change it to "echo Crop(0,4,-0,-4) >> "%mypath%\%mymovie%.avs"

You might want to change that too, "If your movie's height and width are divisible by 16 then disregard the next step."

I always leave that part to (0,0-0,-0) and I have never got any problems. Why should I change it to (0,4,-0,-4)?

Wait, so if we record in 1280x720, doesnt that mean we should render at that resolution too?

Why render at a lower res than you record...

What do you mean? If you're talking about that setting in vegas is 800x600, it's because it was set to "use project settings". If you use clips recorded in 1280x720, that should be the size of the "use project settings" instead.

To sum it up: You should render at the same res, unless you want to reduce the filesize even more.

So if I record at 1280x720, I should render at 1280x720. Then I encode it to .mp4.

Got it, thanks Tack

If your source files are in 1280x720, of course the finished movie should be in the same res

I hate to be a big n00b,but can anyone breifly explain what i do with the avi synth and huffyuv?
i can follow directions well,but i can't seem to figure out how to get the huffyuv in the vegas video format in the custom video render options.
And i also dont know what to do with the avi synth.
I won't ask anymore ?'s i promise!

Sadness · « **Reply #26 on:** April 06, 2007, 04:38:06 PM »

to install huffyuv: Right click your huffyuv.inf file. Then select install. That worked for me atlest. As for the AVI synth i think you just install it and it do it's part at the x264 encoding

dirtybird78 · « **Reply #27 on:** April 06, 2007, 05:56:03 PM »

Ok I got a problem with the X264 encoder. If I figure it out I'll just edit this post...
I (thought) I did everything right but i'm getting the error message: error opening movie.avs and error importing C:/x264/temp/movie.264#video bitstream not compliant. When it's finished I get a temp folder, but no mp4 to be found.
It's not called movie I just don't want you to know what my new vid's gonna be called help would be more than appreciated!!

Sounds like you messed up the .bat file, maybe you added a space too much or removed one... if that doesn't help, try downloading MeGUI.
