Sony Vegas 10

So there's no reason for 64bit version not accepting AVI files (XviD/DivX), there is? Still is wierd..

[post-it]

.. importing has nothing to do with 32 or 64 bit structure! The difference is in "how it handles commands." period!

I've got no idea why it won't load an AVI .. this makes no sense to me. .. sorry!

I was under the impression that you needed 64-bit codecs to open files in a 64-bit program. Anyone know for sure? Pretty sure VirtualDub is like that, at least for encoding.

The 64-bit version runs only under 64-bit systems, iirc. The 32-bit version is a little slower, because it doesn't use the whole power of processor.

This, of course, doesn't have anything to do with the codecs, both should load up the same set with same issues.

I have been trying Vegas 10 (32 bit), and I am dumping it now. In the middle of a project - that's how much it is annoying me.

It keeps losing the ability to understand my files. These are clips I have made recently, using Xvid4PSP or Vegas itself. FFV1 or lagarith. Sometimes the whole clip is gibberish, sometimes a few frames. Once it was the top 1/3rd or so.

Closing/re-opening the project fixed most of them, once I had to close Vegas. I have no trouble at all with these on 8, beyond the very rare orphaned frame.

3 separate PCs, 2 with XP, one with 7. (that one is new).

It's just becoming tiresome, so I'm sticking with 8. Just glad I didn't spend the money.

I'll be using 10 for all my lossless files. Other than that, keeping 8 instaled aswell (no errors by having both so far).

HalOfBorg, I have been using Vegas 10 since about July I think. I have had no such errors at all. I'm currently running Windows 7 64-bit with 4GB of ram, 32-bit Vegas Movie Studio HD Platinum ($100 version). I have only used Lagarith and UTVideo (both RGB and YCbCr). I do recall that at first I had some trouble with clips dropping out, but in Preferences > General tab I unchecked the box for "Close media files when not the active application" and I haven't had any issues at all since. I hope this helps.

I picked up Vegas 10 a week ago. (64bit version)
I had to install a 64bit version of the xvid codec before vegas would recognise my imported files.
You may want to use google and search for it if you encounter the same problem with vegas not being able to import xvid/divx etc. files.

Everything runs fine now.
Time to make my first AMV...

Woah woah WOAH THANKS!

Can you give em a link please, so I do not mistake the version of it :')
Also, is it needed to uninstall some other versions, like AMVapp's one?

uploaded the xvid64 codec that fixed it for me to:

megaupload
and
mediafire

Well, you have to make sure that xvid64 is used for decoding.
Uninstalling the normal xvid codec is a good idea, too.
AFAIR the setup asks you if xvid64 should be used to decode xvid/divx files
Don't know about AMVapp, though.
I have ffdshow installed besides xvid64 and no problems with that.

btw: Only have tried this for xvid/divx files, don't know if this works with H264/MPG4.
