Resampling video
Resampling allows Vegas Pro software to interpolate frames in an event when the frame rate of a media file is lower than the
project’s frame rate. With resampling, the intervening frames are interpolated from the source frames, much like a crossfade
between the original frames.
You can instruct Vegas Pro software to resample the video of a single video event or to resample the entire project at the time of
final rendering:
• To resample an event, right-click a video event and choose Properties from the shortcut menu. In the Video Event tab of the
Properties dialog, choose the Smart resample, Force resample, or Disable resample radio button.
For more information, see
Resample (video only) on page 183.
• To resample the project, choose Render As from the File menu. In the Render As dialog, click the Custom button to access
custom rendering settings. Select the Resample the frame rate of all video check box.
For more information, see Custom
rendering templates on page 376.
The original media file
looks something like
this over three frames.
To convert these three frames into nine frames for a faster frame rate, Vegas Pro software must generate
the intervening frames.
Without resampling, the intervening frames are simply the previous frame repeated.
With resampling, the intervening frames are interpolated from the source frames.
It is similar to a crossfade effect between the original frames.
