Is there a way to render without loosing any quality?

[thel3gendkill3r]

im using vegas and working with a couple of high quality like MPG1 files, however when i render as AVI NTSC Or MPG2 te quality looks pretty low...how can i render without loosing any quality? do i also have to modify my settings to match the footage [maybe thats the problem]or does it not matter?

The concept is simple, take a look at some basic properties of your source footage:

- Aspect Ratio
- Resolution
- Bit Rate

Once you understand that the codec you are about to use has a good compression knowledge (yes not all of them do a good job), you set the above basic properties equal to or more than the source footage and there are least of chances that you will run into bad quality.

Eh.

Nope. If you compressed an already compressed file you get lower quality. Maybe you don´t see it with your eyes, but in the end when you make the final encode you´ll finally fall over your own mistakes with crappy visuell quality and huge filesize.

The only good way imo to not loose any quality is to work always with looseless codecs like Lagarith, HuffYUV or Uncompressed.

Maybe you should take a look again into the avtech guide too?

No. Read again.

Okay, I understand the replies, if the person wants no compression at all.
