I dont think this will surprise anyone here. I tried all the suggestions without success. So in my frustration I decided to download the 64 bit version of Vegas pro 10 trail version just to see if it was bad video clips or just buggy software that was intentionally crippled.

The 64 bit Vegas 10 pro works flawlessly. Dang it!
Well it is only money I guess. I if I had all the money I have wasted on cheap versions I could have already paid for this great one.

Thanks to all for the comments and assistance. I expect my new HF G10 will yield much better video files.

That little camera produced a .mov file. I have a Canon HF11 and I just ordered a Canon HF G10 that should arrive Monday next week. I think those are both sorta real video cameras. I have also shot some video with my little Panasonic point and shot DMZ-DS3. I think good software should be compatible with all the current files that are coming out of these cameras. For work we use any and all cameras that we have. We need to be able to “make it happen”. My Droid thunderbolt shoots hd video and I am expect one of these days I will have no other option but to shoot something that we need to use with that phone camera.

If converting from .mov to .mp4 will solve all me issues I am happy to do that. What software would you recommend for that?

Is there a way to get this light weight version of this Sony software do what I need?
