Can’t import mp4 files into VEGAS Movie Studio 16 Platinum
The error basically says unsupported file format. I have tried using HandBrake to change the codec to MPEG-2 but it didn’t work ☹ Any help would be immensely appreciated.

Try again with Hanbrake convert to mp4 – but to constant frame rate !

Hi Austin,
Can you upload a 10 second sample of your source media here, so we can try it?
Best Regards……George

I have tried this multiple times, but thanks for the reply.

Yes, I’ll try this when I get home.

What happens if you changed the file extension from .mp4 to .avc ?
-
Nothing different.

This is going to sound crazy. I don’t know why it works. But download Apple QuickTime onto your computer. Sony Vegas will then accept the mp4 files.
