Thanks for all your help John, the MPG files work fine with Vegas Platinum. These files have 5.1 surround sound, I wonder if this is why they didn’t work in the standard edition.

Hey thanks John, I must have jumbled up my thoughts when I was writing down the version of Vegas I was using and thinking about XP pro at the same time. My Apologies.

The files are definately MPG files they all have extension *.MPG, he did say though that he flicked over some setting on his camera, can’t remember what or why though.

I’m downloading a trial version of platinum edition at the moment, hopefully this fixes the problem. I’ll let you know tonight (after work)

Thanks for the response John.

I dragged the MPG files directly off the Camera and we haven’t modified them in any way,

I’m not sure what setting he has used to shoot these files, do both produce MPG files? the MPG files appear to be very high resolution and quality if that gives any clues. Some are certainly very large in size for a small amount of footage. (I have dragged larger MPG files on to the timeline with no problems)

I’m wondering if the software that the Camera comes with contains any drivers that I need or additional product specific codecs that I can’t download. I don’t have the software and can’t find anywhere to download it..
