Well, given that the quality of hardware encoding is not (yet) as good as software, there are several advantages in using Rigaya encoders over FFMPEG ones (that's why many - if not all - encoding-suites are adopting them):
- many specifically-optimized filters (nnedi, for example);
- better control of hw encoder;
- deeper documented;
- more fine tuned.
That said, I'm personally very interested in using (Intel) hardware acceleration for filters and/or AVC "lossless" encoding.
Just discovered the cool Lensfun library and the relative FFMPEG filter.
Support for lens correction in Voukoder (Pro ?) would be great.
OK, just retested - with same parameters (deint too) - under vegas 21 and both 13.4.1 classic + 1.7.1 connector / 1.3.0 pro worked flawlessly.
I need to deinterlace 50i content to 25p.
Of course I've tried with other pixel formats with the same result.

Exported 1 frames in 0.180319 seconds.
This is a theoretical average export speed of 5.54573 fps.
IMPORTANT! Real exports using an NLE might be slower due to the NLE overhead.Done. It has exactly the same behavior/result...
...maybe it's a Vegas fault ?!?
(note: no a/v fx used on the timeline but just transitions in a multicam edit. Embedded encoders works flawlessly)
EDIT: I just realized I've posted in a wrong section, please move to Voukoder Classic Bug report.
Sorry for the delay, it's a bit busy period for me (I have to publish 2 festival videos - read 11x4-5min live videos, 1 for each band - and a live classical concert - ~130min video - by december)...
...anyway unfortunally I still can't encode using Voucoder (classic) on Vegas 22.
Render starts but immediately reaches 100% without ever finishing and/or generating any output. Anyway it don't crash.
Here's a screenshot:
Voukoder:
Hi there,
latest Vuokoder + Vegas 22 connector encoding don't start at all on my PC.
On the same machine/project works flawlessly on Vegas 21.
What can I do ?
