  • Show 3rd Party CODECS?

    Posted by Graham Bernard on October 10, 2007 at 8:28 am

    OK – I’ve been on a kinda long haul with this DivX Encoder business.

    I have installed the newest DivX CODEC, 6.7. But I also have, in the Preference list, “Ignore 3rd Party Codecs” enabled. Meaning, Vegas is to ignore 3rd party CODECS – yes?

    Well, the DivX CODEC appears as an options for rendering the VIDEO and I’ve gone ahead and done it.

    Q1: Should this CODEC appear if I have “Ignore 3rd Party Codecs” enabled in Prefs?

    Q2: As I have this “Ignore 3rd Party Codecs” enabled why is it showing up as an option?

    Q3: Is DivX a 3rd party codec?

    Q4: How do I know IF the CODEC is now properly doing its thing, if I have “Ignore 3rd Party Codecs” enabled?

    Q5: Is Vegas “ignoring” another type of CODEC?

    TIA

    Grazie

    [Grazie] “”Ignore 3rd Party Codecs””

    Refers to the DV codec only.
    When you select “ignore third party codecs” Vegas uses it’s own version of the DV codec which is quite a good one compared to others.
