Video Codec Overview

From the File menu, choose Render As to display the Render As dialog.

When you're finished editing your VEGAS® Pro project—or when you want to see it in its final form—you can use the Save it to my hard drive destination in the Make Movie wizard save your project as a single file on your hard drive.

If you need access to more rendering options, click the Advanced options button to open the Render As dialog.

TIP

When you render your project, the project file is not affected (overwritten, deleted, or altered) during the rendering process. You may return to the original project to make edits or adjustments and render it again.

If you've prerendered your project, those prerendered sections can be used for your final render when the destination formats match. For more information, see Selectively prerender video

IMPORTANT When you route busses to hardware outputs, the outputs from those busses will not be included in the mix when you render your project. For more information, see Routing busses
