during rendering in Vegas, it does eventually break up. If anyone has any tips out there, I would be most appreciative.Įdit: Correction, using "Copy" for the source video. I know encoding can sometimes take a while, but never THIS long. Vegas loves these, but they take EXCESSIVELY long to transcode - like, 2-3+ hours for 15 minutes of video. Video: MPEG4 AVC, Audio: AAC, MP4 (PSP) container.Vegas will take this, but the editor is very sluggish and displays visual artifacts while editing (but the final rendered video seems to look fine.) "Copy" the source video, but re-encode the audio as MP3, output as AVI.I found two options that work, but neither are ideal solutions: I looked around online, tried a bunch of different combinations of things, but they all resulted in things Sony Vegas either won't read period ("Cannot open file.") or reads, but cannot use (display errors). Avidemux starts encoding the video, but no matter what I set the quantizer to, the file is heavily compressed.Avidemux kicks back the error, "Bitrate too low?" and won't start encoding.The instructions he linked me were to convert the videos to MJPEG AVI files, but this causes one of two problems:

It spits out 720p 60fps M2TS files that Sony Vegas has trouble dealing with (it reads the video track, but doesn't know what to do with audio) and after VirtualDub struggled to transcode the video, a friend suggested I use Avidemux to make it more friendly to Vegas. So today I bought a Roxio Gamecap HD Pro.
