Is there a way to fix a jerky rendered video in Vegas?

I exported my video to lagarith from Vegas then encode it to xvid using vdub and it still came out jerky. The sources I used are DVD rips.

Jerky, as in interlaced? Or is the whole image moving up & down/left & right?
Having trouble playing back videos? I recommend: Image

Is the audio jerky as well?

Sometimes when i render out of vegas the audio and video jerks around abit. But then i render it again it it comes out clear, maybe it's because i have a fair bit of stuff running at once and my ram can't keep up all that well.

Maybe?

FullmetalHero is probavly right, video encoding takes up a lot of RAM (even if you're exporting to uncompressed) and not having enough screws up your results. Try closing all other programs when exporting.

I'd read through to find out if this has been answered, but I have to get to class, and I owe someone an AMV.

How does one go about making clips of videos in Vegas? Is there an automatic setting for it as in WMM, or does it have to be done manually?

One of the more popular methods for compressing stuff is to compress it with xvid using virtualdub. A detailed description for that is here.

If you do just want to do it in vegas then follow this but put a lossy codec like xvid in instead of huffyuv.

Awesome! Thanks! I'll try it, and see what happens. ^_^
