Hi,

I've recently tried to use Voukoder on BorisFX Vegas 2026 to export a WebP animation loop with an alpha channel.

I've noticed, the quality is either "lossless" if configured or very noisy and there's basically no in-between, regardless of quality options.

I'm using:

Regardless, if I select "lossless", the output file size is huge, it's a lot larger than I'd expect.

If I use ffmpeg manually to encode an image sequence:

ffmpeg -framerate %2 -y -i %1 -loop 0 output.webp

This works great with:

seq2webp.bat "MyRenderedFrames_%6d.png" 24

With an example filenames:

MyRenderedFrames_000000 ... MyRenderedFrames_000250

With a manual ffmpeg encode, the filesize is ~1/6th the size of a Voukoder output.

Is there something more I should do to achieve more fine grained control or is this a limitation of the current WebP handling within Voukoder?

Thanks

Two potential issues:

If you cannot launch the Voukoder UI, you're missing the Visual C++ Redistributable dependencies and/or FFMPEG v8.

If you can launch the UI, but it simply doesn't appear in Vegas' Render UI, please check the image for the potential reason.

Vegas' Render UI has an option in the upper right to filter the Render presets, and I believe it filters out Voukoder by default.
