Sony Vegas accepts most file formats. However, some people have had difficulty with mp4 formats with Sony. I've always suggested converting them to another format you are sure is compatible with the program instead of enduring the frustration of trying to figure out why certain ones don't work.
.veg (Sony vegas project file)
yes as long as you render in the right video codec (file type), same with mp3s I believe its MPG, MPEG and a few others not windows media video (wmv).
Sony Vegas and Windows Movie Maker are two different video editing software applications. You can't import a Sony Vegas project file into Windows Movie Maker (or vice-versa).However, once the Sony Vegas video is exported to a Standard file format that is compatible with Windows Movie Maker it can be imported.You can import files with the following file name extensions into Windows Movie Maker to use in your project:Video files: .asf, .avi, dvr-ms, .m1v, .mp2, .mp2v, .mpe, .mpeg, .mpg, .mpv2, .wm, .wmv
No, Sony Vegas supported to import follow video formats: DV, AVCHD, HDV, SD/HD-SDI, and all XDCAM
everything but FLV will work in experience, there might be one or two rare or unpopular formats but I always think of it as everything but FLV
From what I have heard it does, and is rather compatible - however the industry tends to avoid Vegas with high-end cameras unless they're Sony exclusive. Though for most camera formats Sony Vegas 9 is fine, though I recommend you tell me what camera you are using just to be sure.
Sony Vegas 9 Platinum does not, but Sony Vegas Pro does
Point your mouse to file and then choose import, browse your media.
Sony developed the first digital camcorder that recorded uncompressed data and in 1995, they came out with the DV standard. Formats for digital camcorders include direct to disk recording and Digital8. Digital camcorders now record in MPEG formats.
yes they can but sony Vegas pro 9 files cant be edited in sony Vegas pro 8
Sounds to me like your camera's video file format is not compatible with Sony Vegas. Check out the file name extension (format) of the camera video. You may need to convert the file to a format used by Sony Vegas. The same thing happens to me when importing media from my camera. I have to convert the file first if I wish to use it in Windows Movie Maker. Though I am able to import camera video into other programs I use, Windows Movie Maker is a totally different story. Since I don't use Sony Vegas, I can't vouch for this 100%, but I suggest you check this out first.
