    Using MediaInfo, I can’t find any differences that would cause your proble. It probably has to do with the old computer having had klite installed on it.

    Sorry,

    ok thanks for giving it a try. I may have to carefully consider if adding a specific codec will resolve this hopefully without compromising the quality of the included vegas codecs. I wonder if its possible to just add a specific single codec, say just a version of MPEG 1 in addition to the included Main concept version? When you look at the various Vegas rendering templates you see many different codecs which output the same encoding formats living side by side. For instance their are more than one version of MPEG 4 you can encode to. Is there something I am missing or not understanding? Would it not be true that adding a additional codec would cause no harm to the quality of the existing Vegas on board codecs as long as you are not replacing them?

    No one asked the obvious – Why MPEG1?

    wish I could make it go away but in the legal videography business it is still the required format for many of the industry litigation software packages. the biggest of which and most widely used is livenote and case notebook.
    we encode video to sync with digital versions of court reporters transcripts so that users can advance video to persise points in the written text which is all indexed and presented side by side with the video. the one thing good about it is because of the small file size it renders really quick. thats a good thing when you are dealing with 30 hours of snooze testimony video and you would like the workflow to be as quick as possible.
    heres a link to my website where the services I provide for this legal sector are linked. probaly more info then u wanted but you asked

    I feel your pain. I was the technical manager at an Ikon Documents Company (are they still around?) for a few years in a prior life, and I can appreciate how slow the legal industry moves with technology.

    The problem is surely codec related. You may have to do a re-encode with an external program until you figure out the problem. I wouldn’t expect SCS to put any engineering effort into a rarely used format.
