Black Preview Screen – iPhone Videos

See Francois’ post which has a lot more technical info as to why your “MXF” files may not working. I see you are using Vegas Movie Studio. I have been using Vegas PRO (13, 14, 15), which has the ability to create the MXF file format from within Vegas. My guess is that Movie Studio doesn’t have that option. Francois suggests using Handbrake to “transcode” (convert) the video. I’ve never (had to) use Handbrake, but from all the times I’ve seen it mentioned in the Vegas forum, it must do the trick, because everyone swears by it. I believe it’s a free download. Below is the screenshot of my Vegas Pro 15 File|Render As dialog box:
