RE: The output formats are messed up in Movie Studio 2024

I "still" don't understand. Why are you exporting stills from VDub? If you export them (or otherwsie process them in a 3rd party program) at the display frame size of your Magix movie setting, you will not have a problem. For example, if your movie
