  • Vegas 11 Pro Crashing When Importing/Editing M2TS/TS/Mp4 files recorded from Hauppauge

    Posted by Jaymes Romero on November 20, 2011 at 6:00 am

    So I just bought the Hauppauge, recorded some videos and then tried to import them into vegas. so far ive got nothing but a solid green screen in the preview window, and when i play them in the timeline, either vegas crashes or the preview screen just shows 1 frame, and when i pause/stop it, vegas crashes. ive tried it with no codecs installed, with codecs, ive uninstalled/reinstalled, sad to say the only way i’ve been getting my files to actually import into vegas is importing them into windows movie maker and rendering those into .wmv format and losing quality, pretty much losing the point of recording in HD, any help with this?

    How are you recording with the HD PVR? You should be using the AVCHD setting which produces .TS files that edit fine in Vegas.

    If you installed any “codec-paks”, you’ll need to uninstall them and re-install Vegas. There is no need for any extra codecs. Vegas can edit the .TS files from the HD PVR without any other assistance.

    figured something out: 11 cant handle it worth diddly so downgraded to vegas pro 10.e using .ts files to see if that helps and changed my video settings on the ps3 from 720p to 1080i and it worked. apparntly vegas cant handle recordings at 720p but can handle it at 1080i. sad, now working on a solution to see if i can get it to work at 720p, the facts are solid:

    Windows Movie Maker: Can handle both 720p and 1080i recordings

    Vegas Pro: Has to be a certain build (pro 10.e and can only handle 1080i.

    does no one else see something wrong with this?

    Did you ever find a more…elegant solution to this issue? I’m actually in the EXACT same boat as yourself. Same capture card and everything. 🙂

    I believe one of the solutions was to record in 1080i instead of 720p. I do all of my HD PVR recording in 1080i to .TS files and I have no problems.
