    Hello.

    This has been asked many times but cant seem to resolve the issue
    or find an answer that works.tried codec packs.

    okay, had to reformat and reinstall windows- did it myself and NO problems.Then had to do it again but had a DELL Support tech do it,
    and PC is not working as expected. Now I got issues with Sony Vegas and Cinema4d with regard to video.C4d will not render an AVI- vegas will not read MP4 ?

    Problem is: MP4 files- unable to import. When imported has audio no video.
    I either get an exception has occurred and SOny Vegas pro 8 crashes
    —-or—
    In import dialogue it says Stream attributes could not….?

    I have gotten Quick Time and ffdshow and do not or know what may be the issue?

    7.6.2 was the last version of QuickTime that would work with Pro 8.
    To read mp4 files, you need a newer version of Vegas.
    I’ve got Pro 8, 9 and 10 on my machine and Pro 8 will not read an mp4, only Pro 9 and 10.
