Vvegas 12 EDL Issue: Imported Event Is Missing Video
Having a minor issue when importing an EDL from my partner who also cuts on Vegas 12.
I import the EDL.txt file and once I redirect Vegas to the footage on my system, everything opens up with one minor issue: an occasional clip will load the audio portion properly but only loads a blank white space in the timeline for the video portion (no footage will be visible when previewed though other edits from the same footage will import without issue so I know it’s not a footage problem).
If I check properties on the white block, it can only identify it as “None” in the “Active take name” field and there are no tabs for Media and General. If I check Properties on the audio portion, it identifies the clip (the audio portion is also pink suggesting a sync issue).
Any ideas on what’s creating this issue and how to fix it?

Why not make your partner just send you a Vegas Project File instead,
and simply link them to your files location when prompted.Steve Rhoden

That’s what I’ll do. Initially he was using Vegas 11 while I was on 12 so he wouldn’t be able to work with any files I sent him and this quirk was just something that we worked around (he upgraded to 12 so it’s not an issue anymore). But I agree that while it’d be interesting to solve there are fortunately ways to work around it. 🙂
