  • Sony Vegas Pro Frame Stutter Issue

    Posted by Tyler Perkins on July 16, 2015 at 5:38 pm

    Hi, I am having an issue with my Sony Vegas, It happens in both Sony Vegas Pro 12 and 13. The clip that I am using is normal but once I drag it into Sony Vegas it starts skipping frames/going back a few frames every few seconds.
    My specs:

    CPU: Intel Core i7-4770 @3.4Ghz

    GPU: Geforce GTX 780

    Memory: 16 GB RAM

    OS: 64 bit Windows 7 Home Premium

    I also uploaded a clip to youtube of this issue since I couldn’t explain it very well in text.

    The link isn’t working. Anyway i your clip is doing all of that in both
    Vegas 12 and 13, that means something is indeed wrong with the clip, Or
    it is a format/codec that Vegas does not play well with.

    What you fail to mention is the detailed information of the format of this video file and its source…

    Okay, well I can’t get the link to work for some reason, but the video was originally a .mkv file but I use VLC Media Player to convert it to a MP4 with these settings.
    The “Encapsulation” is MP4/MOV
    The video codec is H-264, it has 800 kb/s bitrate and the audio codec is MPEG Audio, although the audio isn’t important, I just need the video to work. Tell me if you need anything else, I could be converting it with a wrong codec or something but I’ll put a couple pictures here if that will help.

    Have you tried encoding it to another format apart from mp4?
    Say AVI or even mjpeg!

    Hi, I tried converting to both of those, Sony Vegas doesn’t let me use AVI’s and mjpegs are just a blank document for me. Do I need another program for this?

    I actually tried downloading the original file as an mp4 and it works fine, I guess I’ll just have to find those as downloads. Thanks for the help anyway!

    ok good…. Now thinking, if you had used handbrake instead to convert them,
    all would be perfect when dropped in Vegas.
