Hello all.. i downloaded all the preview movies from e-onsoftware about Vue 5. they are great. they are 480 X 270, and i put those preview clips and some of my made clips( which are 322 X 240 size), into a dvd,,,, just to test them. The e-onsofware clips in the tv looked awesome just like or super close to how they looked in small size in the computer. Yet mine looked fuzzy and pixelated. Anyone know how those 480 X 270 were made? I mean what codec and what settings did they use. Was it Final mode( in the Vue render screen), or Ultra or what?? and was it Mpeg 4 or what? Thanks

Masters 768x432, 25 fps (assembled from bmp frames, mixed, etc, with After Effects 6.5 pro); codec Indeo Video 5 used.
For web versions 480x270: master reduced with VirtualDub for the DivX 5 version (filter resize used with "precise bilinear" option choosen); and for mac compressed with QuickTime 6 Pro, mpeg 4 codec (near 200 ko...).

Someone should mention that Phoul is well placed to answer as he did most of these videos (if not all of them ? :) )

Thanks phoul... thing is I'm a bit confused at what you said, being that i'm no techy... can you explain in simpler terms. Like if i saved my movie from Vue, what settings would i use.

I think he rendered to a series of sequencial image files first (from Vue) and then imported them into his video app (VitualDub) to convert them to the video file with the proper codec (being DiVX for PC and QT MPeg4 for Mac).
So he did not save the movies directly from Vue. Hope that explains it.

Ohhh nice.. :) So , how do you go about creating Individual images from vue? is there like a way to tell it, render movie frames to images...something like that?

Sounds like you need to spend more time with the manual... :-D. Maybe screen shots?

Tropob, When you go to save your animation, click the "Browse" button beside the filename and choose a still image format(e.g. TIF, TGA, GIF, BMP) instead of the default movie format (likely MOV on your Mac; it's AVI on the PC version of Vue). Vue will save the animation as a sequence of images in the chosen format.
