Why does Vegas have such a difficult time with recognizing a variety of video and audio streams? I use Vegas primarily for editing videos from quite a few different sources and find that a very large percentage of them cannot be opened because the format could not be recognized.
For all of these videos Windows Media Player can open them, DivX Player can open them, Windows Movie Maker can open them, Adobe Premiere Elements can open them. G-Spot Codec Appliance reports that the video/audio codecs are installed and is able to render them. Vegas is the only program that fails. It always says "video (and/or) audio stream could not be determined."
Why can't Vegas recognize standard video/audio stream when virtually any other program can?
Here is just one example:
G-Spot (and other programs) report that an AVI file has this audio stream: Audio Stream: MPEG-1 Layer 3 (MP3) <0x0055>, 48000 Hz, 101.800 kbit/s, Stereo.
G-Spot says the codec is installed and it can be rendered. All of the other programs can play this file. Why does Vegas report that the audio stream could not be determined?
