Video footage problems, using Vegas 8.0

Postby Shadowfox85 » Thu Aug 28, 2008 4:17 pm

Hey guys!

Anyways I converted some mkv files to avi, and started putting them on Vegas. When I play the files by themselves (outside of vegas) it looks just fine. And for about 90% it looks fine on Vegas. However at key points where the scenes changes drastically, I get moments like this

This is the first frame in a new scene, and the image thats bleeding through it is from the previous frame. This is happening alot and I was originally going to just cut these out but they're started to pop up at key moments I want to include in my video. Any suggestions?

(I tried messing around with the properties of the clips, trying the disable resample, and such)

I know I know! Look, I tried to open the mkv file with VirtualDubMod. Wouldn't accept it. So then I turned to the only reliable application I know that takes mkv, which is Xvid4PSP. All of the other higher quality codecs take WAY too long (I waited 45 minutes and was only at 6 percent..., and this was for a 2 minute clip..... I'm not waiting that long for a mere clip). So I took the xvid route, and it plays well by itself but Vegas seems to not like it. Ok so I guess the reason is because I used the xvid codec right? Is there any way to at least minimize this? Because using the other codecs doesn't seem like an option , since VirtualDubMod only works for 20% of the time I want to use it for an mkv file....

Try making it an avs file, see if it works faster.
