  • Bandicam in Sony Vegas Pro 8

    Posted by George John on August 8, 2015 at 2:53 am

    Hi.

    I have recently purchased Bandicam and recorded a video last night at 1080p. I watched the video in windows media player and all checked out O.K. I put the video into Sony Vegas Pro 8 today and through out the video, I saw on the time line, little red frames. I clicked on the time line where i saw the red frames and the video in the spot was black. These black image frames go through out the video sporadically and last 1 to 5 seconds. My question, is there a fix for the frames? it takes far too long to cut out each little frame. and if i don’t, it corrupts my render.

    Thanks,
    George

    Vegas Pro doesn’t handle Bandicam video well. You need to convert it to a format that Vegas Pro can handle. We just discussed this in another thread. Try converting your video to Motion-JPEG with PCM audio using a tool like AviDemux 2.5 (don’t use 2.6, just 2.5 works)

    You might also be able to use the free GoPro Studio to convert it to CineForm but M-JPEG should be fine.

    Jr,

    Thank you so much for taking the time to explain a possible fix. I did everything as you described with AviDemux 2.5.6. I put the video into AviDemux and exported it as sample.m-jpeg but unfortunately when I put the coverted file into Sony Vegas Pro 8, the entire video was red on the time line and black on the view. Do you detect something I did wrong so I can try again?

    Thanks again,
    George

    [Danny Hays] “Did you try doing this in Bandicam?”

    That looks like an even better solution. Just record M-JPEG files to begin with.
