Hi all :)


I've had this problem for a while now in Version 11. Renders fine in Version 10.

Has anyone else had this problem ?

Sounds like an installed codec problem, or confusion between the codecs Vegas is using. Did you install any software that included codecs *after* your v11 install?

The likely solution is a reinstall of Vegas to see if that fixes it.

You do have 4 different MP4 codecs to play with:
Sony AVC
Mainconcept MP4/AVC
QT MP4
QT h.264

I highly recommend avoiding the QT MP4, very poor quality for bitrate.

OTOH, maybe your guess is right and V11 has a broken codec. I wouldn't know because I never render to MP4 in Vegas any more. I render an intermediate file, then take that out to Handbrake which uses the very superior x264 encoder.

Also happens if you're trying to render something with copy protection embedded in it -- thought that should happen in V10, too.
