Preferences from the Options menu, and on the CD Settings tab, select the Autoname extracted tracks check
box. For more information, see CD Settings tab on page 276.
Adding a still-image sequence
If you’ve exported a video clip as a still-image sequence using another application (a 3D-rendering
application, for example), Vegas can add the sequence to the Media Pool as a single event. Each image in the
sequence will be displayed for one frame in the event.
1. Click the Import Media button ( ) in the Media Pool
window. The Import Media dialog appears.
2. Choose the folder where the sequence you want to open
is stored.
3. Select the first image in the sequence (or the image you
want to start the event).
4. Select the Open still-image sequence check box.
5. In the Range field, enter the number of the last image you
want to open. For example, if you'd selected
AnimationOne_00001.tga in step 3, you could enter 120
in this box to create a new event using
AnimationOne_00001.tga to
AnimationOne_00120.tga.
6. Click Open. Vegas adds the still-image sequence to the
Media Pool.
