  • vegas 11: sony avc/mvc rendering option missing; maincocncept does not work

    Posted by Kumar Keshavan on December 9, 2014 at 11:57 am

    hello:

    I am in a critical project and trying to use 1080p mp4 files in vegas 11.
    I first installed vegas 11 64 bit in my windows 8.1 machine. The rendering option did not include sony mav/avc option. I had only mainconcept which is totally useless because it will always exit immediately with ‘error rendering’ message

    Since I had seen amd used sony avc/mvc in windows 7 , I tied installing 32 bit version and aloha I was able to see and use sony avc/mvc for my rendering. I thought problem solved.

    I was mistaken. software being software now I again do not see sony avc/mvc and re installing vegas did not help.

    I have no mp4 rendering option with this expensive software.

    Is there any solution to this?

    Do you have any codec packs installed (like K-Lite)? It could be that a codec pack is causing your MainConcept renders to fail. Not sure why Sony AVC is not showing up at all.

    Well… something is causing MainConcept AVC to not work and for Sony AVC to not show up. Look at the other software that you have installed and see if you can figure out what might be conflicting. Re-install Vegas Pro 11.0 using the latest build 701/700 and see if that helps. Normally, installing Vegas Pro 11 in Windows 8.1 should work but “officially” it’s not supported (Vegas Pro 11.0 support ended with Windows 7).

    actually I had the same problem in windows 7 on my desktop computer. I sort of solved it by
    1. install it in my windows 7 laptop
    2. copy the wjhole installation directory to my desktop
    3. fire up the vegas from the copied bin directory

    and then I will be able to reliably get at the sony avc in my desktop.

    since i “upgraded” to windows 8.1 in my desktop I have nto tried my laptop trick

    thanx

    If you upgraded a Windows 7 install in place to Windows 8 that might be your problem. Never do an in-place upgrade. That’s only asking for trouble. Always install fresh on a new hard drive.
