Q1: Sony Vegas Pro 12 reject AVI files

"I have an AVI file that I really want to import into Sony Vegas Pro 12, but it keeps rejecting it. I just think it's strange that Sony Vegas won't open it because when you go to import a file it has avi files listed as one of the supported formats."

Q2: Can't open AVI in Sony Vegas

"(I'm new to Sony Vegas just saying) When i drag my avi file (which came from the ingame recorder) it comes up with a message of *none of the files dropped on vegas pro could be opened*."

Q3: AVIs come with sound only in Vegas

"I have Sony Vegas Movie Studio Platinum 9.0 and I just downloaded 3 episodes of a show (which my friend also downloaded and put into sony vegas, worked fine for her) and when I try to put them in Sony Vegas, only the sound shows up, there's no video track or picture at all. I can play it in VLC Player but not in Windows Media Player (it only plays sound there). I have other .avi files that Sony Vegas plays fine, but those other ones didn't originally come with sound so I don't know if that makes a difference or what...."

As the users complained above, AVI is listed as one of the supported formats by Sony Vegas Pro, why Vegas can't import and open AVI files correctly? Even some AVIs can be accepted, but no video or audio comes with. If you are also in the trouble, seek for the solution below. We will give you some hints.

Well, the problem is mainly due to that Windows didn't come with the codecs that were used for those particular .AVI files(AVI is just a wrapper for a large variety of codecs.)... That's why Sony Vegas Pro won't open it. So, you can try to download the codec packs to solve the issue. While, sometimes there are viruses masquerading as codec packs floating around (especially on P2P networks), other times the codec packs are buggy, other times they're fine. And here we recommend you a better solution- transcoding AVI to Sony Vegas Pro more friendly video format like MPG.
