MOV to Sony Vegas Pro Issues
Qustion 1: “I have tried all the solutions on this forum and on others to open mov file in VEGAS PRO 14 but no way to open it. I have installed all quicktime versions, i have tried to install QTLite, but it's impossible to open mov file.
What is wrong with vegas 14? With vegas 13, I havn't this problem. Now I need to open mov files and I cant, I'm blocked in my project !!”
Qustion 2: “At some point in time I must have installed what was necessary to import .mov files into Vegas Pro 13. However, when I opened a v13 project in Vegas Pro 14, and selected the appropriate .mov file source, it rejects it.
So, what do I need to install/configure so that Vegas Pro 14 supports importing/using .mov files? (Note: I don't need to render as .mov -- I just need to be able to use those files as source material.)”
