Problem with Sony Vegas (avi files)

Hi,

I use Sony Vegas 5 (or 7) to make movies and now I wanted to start AMV...
But, Sony Vegas don't take the .avi and all my Bleach episodes are in .avi.
I won't put these 122 episodes only for a AMV :s
Do you know how to up avi files with Vegas

Thanks

Your files are almost definitely encoded with Xvid or Divx, which does not really work for editing. You'll need to reencode them with a lossless codec such as HuffyUV or Lagarith with VDM

then go to file->save

use those to mark the beginning and the end of the "clips" you want so you can save room
This also does a good job explaining... well, everything: http://www.animemusicvideos.org/guides/avtechbeta/
