Sony Vegas Rendering Question

I suppose they would be called glitches anyways; I've got a slight problem, whenever I render an AMV in Sony Vegas, it will have quick flashy glitches/frames that appear for just a quick moment and these are not in the time line at all.

Is there any way to fix this? And just to clarify, my clips are not DivX/Xvid before that even gets sprung on me, they're compressed with Lagarith Lossless Codec.

Also: When I import video clips into Vegas I also get the audio timeline for that clip, however in tutorials I've seen them be imported with only the video. Is there anyway to adjust this so as to not have the audio timeline?

It's kinda hard to say what the glitches are, exactly; do these glitches appear at cuts, by any chance?

And to import the video without audio, you would have to turn off the audio when you export the Lagarith files out of Vdub. There are at least two ways to do that. 1) Go into the streams menu in Vdub and turn the audio off there. 2) Add the line "KillAudio()" to your AviSynth script (without the quotes, obviously; I'm sure you'd get that on your own, but better safe than sorry).

To get rid of the audio after it's been imported into Vegas, click on the clip in the timeline, press "U" to unlink the audio and video, and then delete the audio out of the timeline.

Thanks! For the glitches, they're all between two different clips in the AMV, to show you, I uploaded an AMV onto YouTube with several of them http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dzAdP3SEK54, They occur at :28, :31, 1:06, 1:24, and 1:41, though on YouTube they're less noticeable so I'm not sure if you'll be able to see them clearly or not.

what you are describing is called orphan frames, what you need to do is zoom in on the timeline and cut your clip a few frames shorter till you can't see that part of the clip anymore.

So I should cut the clip at the next sign of movement on the scene?

just before.

Okay, I get it now, Thanks so much!

Also: Since I don't want to spam the board with a new thread so soon, could you tell me how to make audio and video fade to black? I keep doing it accidentally to my video clips, but whenever I want to it won't let me.

This works for both video and audio, video will fade to black (or whatever you have on the line below it) and audio will just fade out.
