  I have a bluray I am converting to WMV to play on my Xbox. I also am running thru vegas to clean it up. On a stand alone video system running Win 7 64-bit and Vegas 12 64-bit. Convert BluRay to MKV. Original MKV is:

  Video
  ID : 1
  Format : VC-1
  Format profile : Advanced@L3
  Codec ID : V_MS/VFW/FOURCC / WVC1
  Codec ID/Hint : Microsoft
  Duration : 2h 16mn
  Bit rate : 16.1 Mbps
  Width : 1 920 pixels
  Height : 1 080 pixels
  Display aspect ratio : 16:9
  Frame rate mode : Constant
  Frame rate : 23.976 fps
  Chroma subsampling : 4:2:0
  Bit depth : 8 bits
  Scan type : Progressive
  Compression mode : Lossy
  Bits/(Pixel*Frame) : 0.324
  Stream size : 15.3 GiB (94%)
  Language : English
  Default : No
  Forced : No

  Because Vegas can’t open it, convert to WMV at 20k bitrate. Video plays fine on Xbox. Here is it’s specs:

  General

  Video

  Format : VC-1
  Format profile : Advanced@L4
  Codec ID : WVC1
  Codec ID/Hint : Microsoft
  Description of the codec : VC-1 – VC-1 Advanced Profile

  But as mentioned want to clean it up a bit with NeatVideo. I convert to AVI uncompressed. Then convert to WMV. Video on Xbox plays back looks like it’s stuttering or missing frames. I have this issue if I use any filter in Vegas. Be it NeatVideo or a built in sharpening filter. If I run it thru without selecting any filter it seems fine. I make sure the video is at 23.976 fps the whole process.

  Thoughts?
