I can’t find xvid in Vegas 12

Should I download it form here https://www.xvid.org/

Is it safe to install this codec?

Any tips on how to use it?

[Stephen Mann]

Xvid and DivX are display formats and not supported by Vegas. If you are stuck with Xvid or Divx footage to edit, the solution is to not use Xvid or DivX. Convert the files with something like AviDemux to a format like Motion-JPEG video with PCM audio and the files should edit fine.

I don’t need to edit the video in vegas 12.

I need to deliver the video with XVID Compression, using Vegas 12.

They will use the videos to display advertising in areas of a screen. (In a sport stadium digital signage system.)

Well if thats the case, you can download the XVID codec and render
as normal, selecting it in the Customized option in the render que.

Thanks. I did it. Downloaded the XVID codec and rendered OK.

Now I have a second request:

HuffYUV AVI Compression with Alpha Channel

I downloaded HuffYUV codec, but it doesn’t shows up under windows video.

Any ideas?

[Steve Rhoden]

Choose a different Render format then and see if the option
to select HuffYUV Codec comes up in the template.

Thanks Steve for your time.

I wasn’t able to find HuffYUV in vegas.

I downloaded Virtualdub and was able to render Uncompressed AVI from vegas into AVI-HuffYUV.

[Steve Rhoden]

I would have thought the option to choose it, should be available if
you choose the Video for Windows format.

Definitely HuffYUV doesn’t shows up in vegas-12 (64bits).

I tried Vegas-10 (32bits) and I was able to render HuffYUV AVI with less size and more quality than the one rendered in Virtualdub.
