Sony vegas destroys video quality on import
Well, I imported video into Sony Vegas that I had just finished recording using Dxtory and it looks ugly.
When I watch the video in windows media player it looks fine, My settings should be fine the way they are and shouldn’t be messing with the quality of the video the way it has been affected.
What do you think the cause is?

What quality is your preview window set at. Vegas is a non-destructive editor. It does not change the source material at all.

I see that the video file is using the PICVideo M-JPEG codec. Perhaps there is a setting on the codec that you can make. Vegas has it’s own M-JPEG decoder so one option is to disable the PICVideo codec and see if it helps.

The video preview is set to Best.
When i render the video from Sony Vegas it is the same ugly quality.

There are videos on YouTube with people using the same codec i use with Sony Vegas without the quality loss.
I want to keep using this codec because the quality a pretty good for the file-size.
