I need to include a clip produced by a TV station in a DVD.
They first sent me a Mini DV tape that played back prefectly in my camcorder (Sony VX-1000). But when I treid to capture it in Vegas, the video did not appear in the VidCap screen, and when I tried to capture anyway, I got black with no audio--just what I saw.
They had no better idea than I did as to why (i.e., no idea at all) but they were nice enough to next-day a DVD ROM with the video burned as an mpeg-2. I thought I could take it straight to DVDA.
I got the DVD today, tried to bring it into Vegas. I was going to digitize the analog audio outs from the tape, and wanted to sync them up in Vegas.
The Vegas explorer sees the file ("filename.mpg") but it won't play from the explorer and I can't put it on the timeline or in the trimmer.
DVDA starts to load it but then crashes.
It plays perfectly in the win media player.
Is there a way I can mung around with it to trick Vegas into seeing it?
Any other ideas whatsoever?
